Show how the group, such as a club or a community, possesses each of the six defining characteristics from Swales’ definition by illustrating, one by one, how those characteristics function in your group.

Include your own definitions/explanations of the six characteristics first, and then continue to show how they function in your chosen community.

Consider what you learned about the group that you did not realize before completing this analysis. What do you now understand that you did not prior to the brainstorming and the writing you have now completed? Add this brief concluding reflection to your writing, explaining the value of performing this kind of analysis. Title this portion of the assignment “Mini Reflection” and include it at the end of your written document.
