526 Words3 Pages

The first thing the student should pay attention to is the fact that the actual paper they are writing needs to be 4 pages long double spaced in 10 to 12 point times new roman. This means there paper will be at minimum 1000 words give or take. With an outline it is important to have at least a quarter to half the full minimum length of the paper with brief summaries that you can turn into sentences.
After the student has found a work and written a strong thesis they need to start thinking of what they want to talk about in the paper. In the instructions the student is given four general tips as to things they can assess about the poster. It would be smart to use as many of these as possible because they are like free bees for things they can …show more content…

This means that they need to find three main points to write paragraphs about that back up their main claim. This is the info that should be used to make their outline.
In order to create a thesis statement with a strong claim the student first has to identify the main idea or conflict of the poster they are assessing. When considering posters to do the assignment on the student needs to find something

they feel they will be able to create a strong thesis about. This means they should pick something they maybe already know a little bit about or a poster with subject matter that is familiar to them. Once they have chosen a poster they then need to thoroughly look it over making sure to pay attention to any wording or symbols that could point to a central focus. Once they have figured out what the central idea of the poster is they need to take a side as to weather they agree or disagree with what the poster is portraying, or make a general opinion about the work that can be argued. Once the student completes these steps they should have a good handle of what they want to write about.
Since the student is confused about the project they probably do not know what the purpose of the project is. The first question the student needs to

    I referred to unit 7’s discussion post where you outlined your essay. So far your research has proven to make for an interesting essay. I’m sorry I did not find a persuasive thesis statement in Unit 8 though, meaning I’m not convinced that there should be a policy change. I know you stated this is a working thesis statement which was not included in unit 8’s post. If you don’t mind, I would like to give some guidance.

    However, because of the extremely differentiated demographic, the main goal will be to find a medium between a younger group of students and a more mature one (the average age of credit students in Fall 2014 was 27). The best way to attract the audience towards the poster is to create something that will be aesthetically pleasing and structured in such a way that will be easy to memorize, but also serious enough to be connected to the institution that LCC represents. The need for the poster does not necessarily apply to Lane Community College but is limited to the Writing Department. The goal is to create something that student will purposely look for when in need of clarification about fallacies of argument, and to not just create a piece of paper that will be considered just as a piece of decor in

    How am I supposed to write a paper? I constantly think of what words to use and my paper mostly consists of crossed out words.

    In my first assignment” Summary and Response of the essay The Human Cost of an Illiterate Society” I learned how to effectively analyze and assimilate the key points of a text. I also learned about the concept of “economy of writing” which helped me to better express myself on paper by eliminating anything that was not necessary to the argument. The second paper I worked on was the rhetorical analysis of “Richer and poorer accounting for inequality” written by Jill Lepore. Throughout this assignment, I learned to identify the strategies logos, ethos and pathos.

    I have revised my thesis statement to two sentences, rather than one. This is so that my point can be understood in a more effective way. My thesis statement is as follows. “There should be more stringent screening processes for individuals wanting to own guns in the United States because the current laws and regulations do not require mental health background checks and evaluations. Too many people with mental health issues are slipping through the cracks and obtaining weapons and then using them on innocent people.”

In addition,” explaining a concept” in chapter of the textbook have influenced my choice of an even to write about because it explained deeply on how I can explain a subject to those that do not know anything about the subject, how to give listeners a clear dictionary definition, and how the concept is important or useful for me to be remember. For example, it is better to know the concept of a memorable event like eye-witness event to talk about; so that, one would have better things to tell the audience than to just grab a concept one do not know much about.

    “A good essay must have this permanent quality about it; it must draw its curtain round us, but it must be a curtain that shuts us in not out” (Woolf, 1925). Though not put quite this way, what I took away from the Read assignment (Bethel University, 2014) was how to write a well written essay and achieve “[the] curtain that shuts us in not out [type of essay].” The Read assignment first addresses the introduction and thesis statement. A well written introduction and thesis statement should be appealing and compel the reader to want to read more, not lose interest and stop without going further. This is accomplished by first making clear what the topic is; it may also provide the authors position, opinion, or attitude (Bethel University,

    While progressing through the course, I found the outline to be particularly beneficial. Having to put an outline together helped me focus on my thesis statement and it also helped me ensure I had strong enough point of view when having to break down the three main pieces of my argument. In fact, as I was working through the outline, it helped me to ask additional questions that pointed me to look for other sources. To be honest, I am not a fan of writing and I am normally someone who waits until the last minute to get most of my research papers done (I know it’s shameful…but I am being honest). Taking this course has shown me how to tackle research papers in a progressive and systematic manner that will actually help alleviate the stress
