What is taught against these pieces

The moves taught against analytical writing, drawn from the practice's own technique record.

Contention, Evidence, Analysis: A precise contention responding to the prompt, evidence in the form of a quotation or event, then analysis explaining why that evidence supports the contention. One piece of evidence to one piece of analysis.
Embedding Quotations Seamlessly: Quotations woven into the student's own sentence syntax, trimmed to the essential words, with square brackets adjusting grammar while preserving meaning.
Summary Discipline, the Three-Sentence Rule: Summaries capped at three sentences, which forces prioritisation and generality over exhaustive retelling.
What / How / Why: Naming what the author does, how the technique operates, and why it matters to the text's argument, so device-spotting becomes analysis.
Thematic Statement Refinement: Sharpening a contention until it takes a position that could be disagreed with, rather than restating the prompt.

These are drawn from the record of techniques used in lessons. The full archive holds every piece published so far, and the Clinic works the same moves at the level of a single sentence.
