Roth English 1301 Jeffries and Carr Comparison/Contrast Activity Using the Venn diagram attached, work together to begin listing similarities and differences between Jeffries’ and Carr’s perspectives; clearly, there are some big differences between their perspectives, but it seems they could agree on some aspects of the topics as well. After you fill out the Venn diagram, determine what main question could be posed to both authors; remember, with my comparison/contrast, I posed the main question of, “Should homeschooled students be required to take standardized tests?” Then, I listed a series of sub-questions to help facilitate a comparison/contrast that goes point-by-point. There are many main and sub-questions that could be posed about the two articles – it’s up to you and your interpretation of both articles and what their main concerns seem to be.
