This document provides an agenda and guidance for students completing the final draft of an essay. It includes sections on sentence strategies, self-assessment, preparing the final draft, reviewing MLA style for integrating and citing sources, and formatting a works cited page. Students are instructed to work through slides 12-19 to prepare their essay for an in-class writing workshop, ensuring their essay is ready to submit for a grade. The document offers questions for students to consider about different elements of their essay, such as the beginning, defining the problem, describing the proposed solution, and ending. It also provides examples and guidelines for integrating quotations and summarizing sources in the correct MLA style.
This document discusses four types of claims that can be made in arguments: fact and definition claims, cause and effect claims, value claims, and policy claims. It provides an example of each type of claim. It also discusses four types of supporting evidence: factual knowledge, statistical inferences, informed opinions, and personal testimony. Finally, it outlines the structure of a position paper, including an introduction with a thesis, three body paragraphs presenting and refuting arguments, and a conclusion.
There are two main types of essays: argumentative and discursive. Argumentative essays expect the writer to take a stance from the beginning, while discursive essays require an unbiased presentation of information. When writing introductions for exams, students should change the question into a statement, indicate if they agree or disagree, and add relevant background information. For coursework essays, students must determine the appropriate scope of the topic.

The document discusses the differences between argumentative and discursive essays. An argumentative essay requires taking a stance on an issue and using evidence to convince the audience that the arguments are valid. The goal is to further convince readers that the author's position is right. A discursive essay presents both sides of an argument equally and draws tentative conclusions based on the evidence without trying to convince readers of a particular position. Sample topics are provided for both types of essays.
Here are some strategies for conclusions:
- Restate the thesis in different words
- Summarize main points without repetition
- Draw inferences from the discussion
- Call the audience to action based on the argument
- Note wider implications or consequences of the topic
- Leave a lasting impression on the audience
- Use rhetorical techniques like repetition or parallelism
