This is not a research paper per se, but I would like you to bring in any sources that might help you develop your paper. I’d like you to make a connection about a piece of literature (from this semester) to popular culture.Try to focus on a piece of popular culture that is fairly specific: a single episode of a TV show, a TV commercial, a song, a print advertisement, a website, a single magazine, a billboard, a greeting card, etc. You might decide that it serves your argument better to bring in two items that are very closely related, like two episodes of the same TV show, or two greeting cards, or two print advertisements, but try to stay very focused. I would discourage you from focusing on an entire movie, for example, because that can be a little overwhelming.Regardless of what type of popular culture you wish to focus on, you must be able to watch it over and over. If you choose an episode of a TV show, you must have it recorded or accessible online so that you can watch it repeatedly and develop specific evidence (like quotes).The most important thing to keep in mind is that you want to make a clear, focused argument about how the essay from the book can be applied to the popular culture. The essay you choose might already talk about popular culture directly, it might talk about popular culture very indirectly, or it might not talk about popular culture at all. You have lots of options. The thing to keep in mind is that you need to be very clear about what you’re arguing and why it’s significant.Questions to consider as you decide on an argument:What would your author say about your pop culture?Do you think your pop culture proves or disproves your author’s argument?How does your author influence your understanding of the pop culture?If you want to use one of the structures we’ve used before, feel free to do so. In that case, you could set up your author as “Author A” and your pop culture as “Author B,” or you could set up your pop culture as “Author A” and your author as “Author B.” You have lots of options. Again, the most important thing is that you have a clear and consistent argument. This assignment will not include a template for a thesis or an outline. That is something you need to get more comfortable doing on your own. However, feel free to email me to discuss possible templates in so that you can figure out how to create the best template to serve your argument.Final Draft: The final draft should meet the following criteria: six (6) pages, double-spaced, word-processed, proofread, spell-checked, 1 inch margins, Times New Roman, font size 12, page numbers, in-text citation MLA style, with a Works Cited page (this page does not count toward the 6-page requirement)Other reminders:Your thesis should be an argument; do not state the obvious.Your reader has not read the essay nor seen or examined your pop culture. (This is practice for the research essay in which you need to be able to explain everything for your reader.)Create clear topic sentences and fluid transitions that will help your reader follow your logic. Your topic sentences should introduce your specific area of support and link it to your argument. If your topic sentence states a fact, then it is easy to fall into the trap of summarizing throughout the whole paragraph, rather than analyzing.You may weave in personal experience if you feel that it would strengthen your argument. However, the focus of your essay should be on analyzing a relationship between the two texts.Make sure you are bringing in specific examples from both the essay and the popular culture in order to prove your argument.Feel free to use “I.”Include proper in-text citation MLA style and a Works Cited page MLA style.

Essay #3, you’ll write a classic argument essay: You’ll take a position on a controversial issue and support it using your own logical thinking and explanations, along with evidence from at least two sources (the synthesis part). You’ll also make sure that you come across as a credible, trustworthy person (ethos) and that you incorporate enough emotional appeal to make readers care about your issue (pathos). Imagine that you’re writing for a general audience of intelligent readers who care about your issue but are undecided about it. Your essay might appear as an opinion piece in a reputable online newspaper that appeals to a variety of readers, not just conservatives and not just liberals. I’m going to divide this assignment into steps: 1. Choose your topic NOW from the list below. The titles in quotation marks are the Wikipedia pages that you’ll use to learn about your topic and as a source for sources. “Face Masks During the Covid-19 Pandemic in the U.S.” The Question: Should face masks be required in public spaces where social distancing isn’t possible? “Universal Basic Income” The Question: Should the U.S. government provide a basic income to all Americans? “Removal of Confederate Monuments” The Question: Should confederate monuments be removed from public spaces? “Concussions in American Football” The Question: Should tackle football be banned for children under 13? “Corporal Punishment in the Home” The Question: Should parents hit children as a form of discipline? “For-profit Higher Education in the U.S.” The Question: Should for-profit higher education be banned? (“For-profit” doesn’t mean all private schools. It means private schools that are set up to generate profits for stockholders.) “Hydraulic Fracturing in the U.S.” The Question: Should hydraulic fracturing (fracking) be banned? REQUIREMENTS FOR ESSAY #3: MLA format (see page 588 and all of Chapter 54), including an original title that serves as a hook for your essay. An introduction that engages readers and provides them with necessary background information. (Do NOT list your topic sentences in your introduction!) A thesis that responds to one of the questions I provided above. It should appear at or near the end of your introduction unless you decide to put it somewhere else for strategic reasons. At least four body paragraphs. Each one should provide a reason (the topic sentence) that supports your claim (thesis). Each reason should be supported by logical explanations, examples, evidence from sources, evidence from your observations and beliefs, etc. Part of what you need to do in an argumentative essay is EXPLAIN WHY YOU HOLD YOUR POSITION. That could come from your sense of ethics or from observations or from your experiences, in addition to anything that you find in sources. Some discussion of counterarguments and refutation. You could do a little bit of this in each of your body paragraphs, or you could write a separate “refutation” paragraph (it could count as one of your minimum four body paragraphs) that is devoted to raising possible counterarguments and explaining why it isn’t convincing. You may even acknowledge that your opponents are right about some things, but you have to show why that still doesn’t convince you and shouldn’t convince readers. Incorporation of relevant information from at least two sources. You can paraphrase, summarize, or quote directly from the sources. Whatever you do, introduce the source with a signal phrase and include an in-text citation if it has page numbers. You must give credit to the source, whether you’re using their ideas in your own words (paraphrase) or their ideas in their exact words (a direct quote). Readers should ALWAYS be able to tell where each bit of information came from. Providing this information is a courtesy to readers. If you don’t provide it, you’re not being courteous to readers and you’re guilty of plagiarism, which could result in failure for the assignment and even the course. You could use a source as evidence for your position or to represent your opponents’ position. You could also use a source to help provide background information. Be sure that you’ve chosen credible, relevant sources from the list on your Wikipedia page. (Do not use the Wikpedia page as a source.) This isn’t a research paper, so don’t overdo the sources. I want you to think through this topic and explain your position; the sources are just extra support or background information A conclusion that reflects on the significance of the issue. DON’T start with “In conclusion” or any similar transition and DON’T just repeat what you said in your body paragraphs. Answer the question “Why is this important?” You can also reinforce your thesis. A works cited page that lists all the sources you used in your essay in MLA format (see chapter 54). This may be the same works cited you turned in on Nov. 2, or you may have changed or added sources. Just make sure that it corresponds exactly to the sources used in your essay. And of course, clear, correct, graceful sentences. Avoid second person pronouns and questions. Eliminate wordiness. Proofread and correct common errors. Don’t rely on spell checkers or grammar checkers. They’re helpful, but they will not solve everything. English is too challenging for computers!

This book report is to be based upon a student having read the required/assigned book. The length of the work should not be the determining factor in a student’s report. This report is to reflect an analytical review of the work read and IS NOT TO BE A LENGTHY RE-HASH OF THE BOOK’S CONTENTS. ?How does a student analyze a book? ??a. Determine the author’s purpose and thesis (theses). ??b. Does the work successfully develop the purpose of thesis (theses)? ??c. Why does it develop them or why does it not develop them? ??d. What are the strengths or weaknesses of the work? ??e. Does the author write well or poorly? f. What are the sources the author consulted in his or her study? (Look at the bibliography.) ??g. Was the book edited careful? ??h. Is it a work of scholarship? ?-Use a cover sheet for your report and on this cover sheet put your name, the date, the course, and the author and title of your book. (See the attached format.) ?-At the top of the page one, type the following type of information about the book you read: The Last Empire: Nationality and the Soviet Future, edited by Robert Conquest. Stanford, Calif.: Hoover Institution Press, 1986, 406 pp., Index, and Bibliography. (EXAMPLE) -After typing the bibliographical entry, skip two spaces and start your report by stating the author’s purpose(s) and thesis (theses). From this point your report will be showing your reader how the author develops or fails to develop why he or she has written this work. ?-Make analytical remarks about the work (see #6 above for some suggestions — bare in mind that the suggestions are not exhaustive but are supplied to you in an attempt to challenge your thought processes). ?-Conclude your report with an evaluation of the book. Base your conclusion(s) upon your analytical view(s). ?-You may find it advisable to consult a book review or book reviews written by colleagues of your author. Check library holdings for the Book Review Digest or consult a reference librarian for reviews in scholarly publications. ?-DO NOT FAIL TO READ THE AUTHOR’S PREFACE OR INTRODUCTION BECAUSE THIS IS, MOST LIKELY, WHERE THE READER WILL FIND A STATEMENT OF THE WRITER’S PURPOSE(S) AND THESIS (THESES). Be careful when reading chapters one and the last one because these are where the writer sets out his or her case (chapter one) and makes his or her conclusion(s) – in the last one or epilogue.
