2. All of the different components involved in the writing process are:

·       Collecting and keeping track of texts

·       Intertextual analysis

·       Eliciting writers’ account

·       Observation of writing

·       Integrating data from multiple sources

3. Composition is the writing process where the writer writes his or her own thoughts down creating a piece of writing while inscription is where the writer uses different tools to “inscribe” others thoughts and ideas into a piece of writing. It is the act of moving an idea from your mind to paper in the best possible way.

4. It is important to distinguish different kinds of authorship because the different kinds allow both composition and inscription in the text. The animator is the one who inscribes the words. The author is the one who decides on the words.  The principal shows whose position is represented by the words. Authorship is important to help prevent plagiarism.

5. To be able to trace the writing process we must trace the structure of participation. The structure of participation is examining who s involved in the making of the text. We can’t really understand where the information came from and who it is meant for with the structure of participation. Animator, author, and principle are the kinds of participation in the text that he included.

7. Concurrent accounts are based on thinking aloud to help stimulate the writing process because it makes it easier to put your thoughts on paper. Also by saying everything out loud it helps you understand everything better. Retrospective Accounts are all about memory and people remember very little from moment-to-moment thinking making it very difficult. Process logs are something someone uses to help keep their thoughts regarding the writhing process. These can help display key points and display the work has. Semi-structured interviewing is a process that involves asking questions that have been prepared in advance. Stimulated Elicitation Interviewing is when you ask questions depending on the interviewee’s memory as the basis of the response. These questions can trigger memories leading to good answers.  My favorites are concurrent accounts and stimulated elicitation interviewing because I think for me reading aloud and saying my thoughts out will help me put my ideas on paper and the questions helped trigger the thoughts for my Narrative.
