Write an essay of three to four typewritten, double-spaced pages (at least three full pages) on a topic of your devising that employs a pattern of cause and\/or effect. You may write more than four pages if you choose, but see me if your draft runs to more than five full pages; probably you will need to reduce the scope of your essay. If you wish, you may concentrate on causes or on effects or on both. Review the material in the textbook on developing a thesis and organizing an essay (Chapters 1-3).<\/p>\n
Before you begin: Read carefully Chapter 10 on Cause and Effect (from our Patterns textbook). Also
\nreview Chapters 1 – 5 on the Writing Process.
\nWrite an essay of three to four typewritten, double-spaced pages (at least three full pages) on a topic of
\nyour devising that employs a pattern of cause and\/or effect. You may write more than four pages if you
\nchoose, but see me if your draft runs to more than five full pages; probably you will need to reduce the
\nscope of your essay. If you wish, you may concentrate on causes or on effects or on both. Review the
\nmaterial in the textbook on developing a thesis and organizing an essay (Chapters 1-3).
\nNote: This is NOT an Argumentative essay. It is expository. You will be examining how or why
\nsomething happened and\/or what the result of that something was or is. See again p. 50 and p. 55. You
\nwill not be writing an argumentative essay about what should have been done to avoid the cause or
\neffect. You will be writing an Argumentative essay as your fourth essay. You may use some material
\nfrom Essay 1 in your future argumentative essay. Or you can pursue a new subject. Either is OK.
\nThere are many possible topics. If you can’t think of one at first, review all of the questions after each of
\nthe readings in Chapter 10 for ideas. Also, check the list of topics at the end of the chapter (pp. 367-
\n68). Look again at the instructions for the Diagnostic Essay you wrote in the first week; there are
\nsuggestions other than COVID-19. Use free writing, brainstorming, or clustering as methods to explore
\nyour ideas. If you still can’t think of a topic or if you dislike the suggestions in the textbook, see me.
\nYou do not need to choose a topic that demands outside research; you will have plenty of time to do that
\nin your research paper and argumentative essay. You can probably rely on your own knowledge and
\nexperience to write an essay about, say, the effect of requiring public high school students to wear
\nuniforms or the causes of student apathy. However, if you choose to write about a topic that requires
\nresearch or previous knowledge (i.e. a topic that cannot come from only your own experiences), you must
\ndocument your sources fully. If you use any kinds of outside information, including material from other
\ncourses or from anything you look at online, you must document them fully using MLA format, including
\nboth In-text citations and a Works Cited page. See Chapters 16 through 18 (especially pages 730-49) for
\nthe proper format, or see me if you have questions. Review the statements about plagiarism on the
\nsyllabus. When in doubt, cite your source. Check the syllabus for instructions on proper paper format.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
