The assignment is for a four
page paper that must be divided in two distinct parts. It must include a summary of the reading
assignment and a thesis statement, and must develop an idea.
You will write about the Lepore article. Your paper must briefly summarize the reading and
explore your own thoughts and ideas in response to it. The essays must be written in 12-point font,
using standard margins, and double- spaced. It must be a total of four
pages.
Your assignment
should be organized into two sections.
The first section
needs to be labeled: Section 1: Summary.
Please clearly label following these instructions. You should write a two
summary of the reading selections, stating the title and author, the general
topic, the main argument, and a brief description of the body of the reading. This
section will be graded on thoroughness and accuracy.
Your second
section needs to be labeled: Section II:
Discussion. This is part of the same assignment and should follow your
summary in the same document. You are only uploading one file. In this section
you should write a two-page discussion of an issue raised by the readings and
your thoughts on it. This should focus on the reading itself. YOU MUST HAVE A
THESIS STATEMENT. Please have your thesis statement in bold or italics
so I can clearly see it. This is an argument you are making about the reading
or about the issue you chose to write about. It should not be a restatement of
the author’s argument you’re your own argument about it. You will lose points
if your statement doesn’t make a clear argument. Again, underline, italics, or
bold your thesis statement. Please focus on the reading selection and issues
discussed in class and do not use outside sources.
The summary is
worth 5 points and will be graded on accuracy and thoroughness. You must
encapsulate the main ideas.
The discussion is
worth 5 points and will be graded on thoroughly you explore your topic using
the materials in the reading selection. Points will be deducted for a weak or
vague thesis statement.
Everything must be written in your own
words. You may use short quotes and must cite the page number. I’ve attached the articlde and sample essay as files.
