This document provides instructions for an assignment requiring students to write a 5-paragraph essay. It outlines the objectives, learning outcomes, tasks, submission requirements, assessment criteria, and marking rubric. Students must choose one of three essay prompts focusing on cause/effect, compare/contrast, or process. They are instructed to research their topic, include in-text citations and a reference list, and limit their response to 600-800 words. The essay will be evaluated based on pre-writing, structure and unity, support for arguments, coherence, sentence skills, and overall understanding of the topic.
