Paper 3 English 2111
DIRECTIONS
Do not focus on the literary devices used by the author (e.g., diction, tone, irony, symbolism) but rather on the actual content. Italicize, bold or underline the thesis statement. The first part of each of the argument paragraphs will analyze the text, and the second part will relate that analysis to life nowadays (link). The introductory ¶ should have only two sentences, one of which will be the thesis statement. The paper cannot earn more than 60% without the required organization and thesis. This is to be your own, original work, without referring to any outside sources or commentaries, but this is not an "I" paper. Use present tense. Do not use "you." Do not focus on the literary devices used by the author (e.g., diction, tone, irony, symbolism, metaphor) but rather on the actual content. Include a brief heading with your name, assignment, date and course. Include the word count at the top of the paper. Here are some examples of concepts for this paper:
No title page is necessary, but title your essay in an original manner and put your name on the paper as well in the upper left corner. Detailed feedback about the submitted paper will be provided in D2L. The content of the paper will be graded based on its organization, thesis, paragraph structure, quality of arguments, analysis strength and lack of summary. Each type (not each occurrence) of major grammatical errors (e.g., run-on, pronoun-antecedent agreement, fragment, misplaced modifier, parallelism, verb form, subject-verb agreement, 3 x spelling errors) will equal a deduction of 10 points.
