I’m working on a english discussion question and need support to help me learn.
Summaries are a helpful tool in reading and writing for numerous reasons. Loglines are a particularly condensed type of summary that tell the story of a whole movie in one sentence. Read the following loglines. Then, write loglines for two movies of your choosing, without saying the title.
After you do that, will ask you to answer the following in four sentences each…
1. Why is summarizing important for academic writing and reading?
2. Why do you think a condensed summary is particularly useful to practice?
Back to the Future (Links to an external site.): “A young man is transported to the past, where he must reunite his parents before he and his future cease to exist.”
The Hangover (Links to an external site.): “A Las Vegas-set comedy centered around three groomsmen lose their about-to-be-wed buddy during their drunken misadventures, then must retrace their steps in order to find him.”
