develop the analytical argument offered in your thesis, including careful evidence from the primary text and from secondary sources

Purpose: This assignment requires you to “read like a writer,” to read critically, and to integrate credible research with your own interpretation to arrive at a solid conclusion pertaining to the text you are analyzing.
Instructions: Pick one of your favorite pop culture texts and analyze the language, structure, and craft of the text, to make a claim and draw connections between the style and the author’s purpose.
Research: Find, cite, and incorporate 3 credible, relevant sources

Description
Whether we realize or not, popular culture is a pervasive influence in all our lives. It is the source of entertainment, controversy, and even academic study. In this paper you will evaluate and analyze a text from popular culture; you may choose a text that addresses a topic related to our Preface text, but you are not required to do so. You will begin by selecting one television series, film, popular song, video game, music video, comic book… on which to focus. Your goal is to analyze the language, structure and craft of the text, to make a claim and draw connections between the style and the author’s purpose. Research
For your research, you may start with the resources for English 101 students. You may also want to search the websites of major publications such as the New York Times or Entertainment Weekly. You could research what others have had to say about your chosen text, or you could research what experts have had to say about what is  portrayed in your text.
Audience
This essay should be directed to actual and implied audiences: both your fellow students and professor as well as an imagined audience to whom your chosen pop culture text might appeal. For example, you might choose a movie to analyze. In that case, your paper might be geared toward others who have seen that movie. You might choose a song or album by a particular musician. In that case, your readers would be fans of that musician. Make your essay meaningful and appealing to others.

Overview
This assignment asks you to select, engage critically, and analyze a text from the world of popular culture. The goal of this assignment is to encourage you to think critically about the text, conduct a small amount of relevant research pertaining to the creator’s (or creators’) background, genre-specific context, style, or content, and to write a cohesive paper synthesizing your research with your own interpretation.

• contain a clear thesis, or claim regarding the text: make a specific argument about how the text reflects society and why it is so popular.;
• summarize the text(s) and incorporate evidence in the form of quotes and paraphrasing
• develop the analytical argument offered in your thesis, including careful evidence from the primary text and from secondary sources; and
• cite your research appropriately according to MLA format.

What are the Primary Source Analysis of Meditations by Marcus Aurelius.

What are the Primary Source Analysis of Meditations by Marcus Aurelius.: Include your proper title page,
add to your thesis—include important or key ideas and arguments that you will
address based on the primary sources you are using from Sources of the Making of the West or another approved primary
source so that you have a basic introduction (with your main arguments and ideas),
an outline of the body (a small paragraph or “bullet points” of key ideas and
arguments with a one sentence description of each main point), and a possible
conclusion. Include a list of your
primary and secondary sources in a properly cited format (in-text or parenthetical
or footnotes or endnotes). Add to your
bibliography as necessary. The outline
should be 2-3 pages in length.
Proofread—you will lose points for too many grammatical or other errors.

Paper Draft: Have a more fully developed introduction which has primary
sources and details your main arguments and the key points or ideas in the body
of the paper. Include a much more
substantial body of the paper, now 3-5 pages of actual text that contains a more
thorough development of each of your key arguments and ideas. Also, include a
more refined conclusion. You should spend time proofreading and editing before
you submit so that the paper is in a polished form (relatively free of grammatical
and other errors). Finally, properly
cite all your sources (in-text or parenthetical or footnotes or endnotes and a
bibliography). I will be looking for
changes based on the feedback you received on the paper outline. Doing well on the draft is critical to doing well
on the final paper.

Final Paper: The final paper, now 5-8 pages of actual text, needs to
include everything required in the draft and should also include any corrections,
additions, or modifications (including more extensive editing and proofreading)
needed for final submission. I will be
looking for changes based on the feedback you received on the paper draft. Be sure that you properly use and cite your
sources—you can earn no higher than a “D” if you don’t.

“Very well done–remember to keep the focus on an analysis of the primary document and use historical narrative (key events and ideas etc.) from secondary sources (your textbook or other secondary sources) for context–be sure to use and cite sources. You are analyzing the primary source revealing what it tells us about the people and the times during which it was written—in this case dealing with the Meditations of Marcus Aurelius. Organize the introduction and paper around the primary source– key ideas etc., found within your primary source. See what your primary source tells us about the society, people, and times—follow the syllabus and Source guidelines. Be sure to use and cite sources–include your primary and secondary sources in a properly cited format for the outline. Go into great depth with your primary source (in this case the Meditations). Edit and proofread—there are some grammatical and other errors. You have the right idea (mainly), so start reading and analyzing the primary source you’ve chosen in great depth in its historical context. Create a bibliography that has both primary (for analysis) and secondary (for context) sources. See me if you’d like help or clarification. As a ps, as you start to write, be more formal and concise– remember your arguments etc, will come from an analysis of the primary source.”

Compare and contrast what the fox in The Little Prince says about relationships with what Montaigne says about relationships in his essay “Of Friendship.”

The following are suggested topics for your midterm paper. You can analyze a work we read, or you can find something else you are interested in, as long as it is French literature. About the works we read, you can write on one of the following topics. If you do not want to write on one of these topics you can find something else that is really enjoyable or important for you personally, are interested in or can relate to your major or research, or that has an angle to which you can relate, as long as it has to do with French literature.
A. On Relationships in French Literature
Compare and contrast what the fox in The Little Prince says about relationships with what Montaigne says about relationships in his essay “Of Friendship.” Write about both similarities and differences. If you would like, you can also compare the descriptions in these two texts with the description of how the two people relate to each other in “Breakfast” by Jacques Prévert.

Introduction: introduce the author and the work, and talk about its context in a specific movement or genre.
Body of the paper: your analysis. Give examples to support your main thoughts.
Conclusion: summarize the most important ideas of the work’s content, or expose your own opinion: if you like it and why.
On quotations and your own analysis: we are not interested in your copying from sources. You can use the information you find when you look something up, and comment on it, for example, if you look up information on literary history. Quotations should trigger your own analysis.

Explain why the purpose of the discussion board is not to analyze data, it is to design a study that you could conduct with existing data or data you collect.

Explain why the purpose of the discussion board is not to analyze data, it is to design a study that you could conduct with existing data or data you collect. Your dependent variable in this case is whether a student goes to public vs. private school. Therefore, your literature review should be about the characteristics that differentiate whether kids go to public or private school.
You do a good job describing the HSB data set and the variables you use.
Rather than analyzing the data, you should describe how you would analyze and validate the study.
You should also talk about threats to internal validity. What other variables or factors aside from the ones you listed might account for differences in whether students go to public or private schools?
Right now I would give you 75% on this work. Since I was late in reading your paper that you submitting early, I will give you until Sunday at midnight to submit a revision if you would like. Again, I don’t need the analysis. I just need you to describe the plan and how you will validate. I also need you to focus on whether kids go to public or private school as the dependent variable. Your logistic regression is about understanding which factors account for whether kids go to public or private school.
