This document provides an overview of the structure and content of an academic writing lecture. It discusses defining key terms, developing topics by taking notes from sources, avoiding plagiarism, using different types of introductions like asking questions or using anecdotes, developing an effective thesis statement, and integrating sources through quotes, paraphrases and summaries. The document also provides examples of introduction paragraphs that use a funnel structure and clearly state the thesis.
The document discusses different techniques for incorporating outside sources into writing: quoting, paraphrasing, summarizing, and synthesizing. It explains that quoting involves using the exact words from a source, while paraphrasing puts the source material into your own words while maintaining the original meaning. Summarizing requires putting the main ideas into your own words in a broader, shorter overview. Synthesizing combines similar ideas from multiple sources. The document also provides examples and guidelines for using short and long quotes in APA format, such as using quotation marks for short quotes and indentation for long quotes.

Here are my responses to the reading comprehension questions:
- This study suggests that how we use social media like Twitter may depend on whether we are using a mobile device or computer. Being aware of this could help me understand differences in how I and others communicate on these platforms based on the device. It may also influence how companies approach marketing and messaging for different devices.
- Personality likely influences how we choose to use technologies, but technologies can also shape our behaviors over time. Things like needing to be brief on mobile may encourage more direct/informal language. But core personality traits still drive our initial tendencies. It's a two-way relationship between person and tool.
- This adds nuance to assumptions about Twitter users.

Writing an academic essay involves structuring a coherent argument and presenting ideas in a logical order. A typical essay introduces the argument, analyzes evidence, considers counterarguments, and concludes. Different types of information like background context are often located in specialized sections. Successful essays anticipate questions readers may have like "what evidence supports the thesis?", "how does the thesis address counterarguments?", and "why does this matter?". Answering these questions fully helps structure the essay and ensure the argument has significance for readers.

Writing a Research Essay in International Relations and Political Science
This is some basic advice on writing an essay in International Relations. The advice is generic, and obviously particular assignments, topics, questions have their own requirements – but this general advice should apply most of the time.
Be aware of what a criteria grading sheet looks like, as this sets out the way in which the essay will be graded. The standard grading sheet looks like this, and you will notice that there are four separate criteria. We will deal with each in turn.
1. Structure/Organization: Have you answered the question? Do you have a clear argument that you defend throughout? Is it well organized with appropriate use of paragraphs?
2. Research: Are you demonstrating research skills? Have you used a range of sources? Is it thoroughly referenced, using an appropriate system, with a bibliography?
3. Content: Do you set out clear arguments/evidence to support your position? Have you considered counter-arguments/evidence? Is their evidence of critical thinking?
4. Presentation: Is the paper well-written? Is it proof-read for grammar and spelling errors?
1. Structure/Organisation
Essays need a clear and concise introduction, which sets out a position: the thesis or argument that the essay will defend. If a question has been set, the introduction needs to clearly answer this question. It does not provide a broad introduction to the topic (avoid waffle or ‘flowery’ introductions), but rather, specifies the particular position that the essay will pursue. The essay then defends this position clearly throughout! I strongly suggest beginning the essay with the line “This essay argues…”. If you can clearly set out your position at the start, it will solve a lot of the structural problems that many essays have. You can then use the rest of the introduction to expand on your argument, detail the case material you are using to support your position, explain how your position allows you to propose an answer to the question(if one is set), and outline the structure of the essay. When outlining the structure of the essay, using first, second, third can be a clear and informative approach for the reader.
The main body of the essay is organised in short, sharp, concise paragraphs. It is important to consistently link the material, ideas, theories, concepts, debates, arguments, evidence, and case studies that you evaluate in the main body of the essay back to the question, and to your argument. Though different courses and different types of written assignments have different objectives, normally it is a good idea to have a balance between theoretical/conceptual debates and discussion, and empirical evidence. Theory comes first – detail the argument/counter-argument, analyse this material in the context of your argument (as clearly .
research involves investigating a topic to learn more about it. Typically, one conducts research to answer questions. Often, as one learns more about a topic, initial questions generate additional questions. for more visit http://www.transtutors.com/homework-help/writing/research-paper-writing.aspx
Argument structure The Aristotelian argument The Artroutmanboris
Argument structure: The Aristotelian argument
The Aristotelian argument is the framework upon which most academic, thesis-driven
writing is based. You can use this template any time you need to take a position on a
topic.* Before getting started, make sure that your thesis is argumentative and non-
obvious. When determining how to support your thesis, try to group all of your
supporting evidence into distinct piles which have thematic similarities. Finally, develop
each claim in its own section of text, making sure that each point is proportionate to the
others. The back of this handout contains a template you can use to get started.
1. Start broad and contextualizes the argument (e.g. Why
is your topic relevant to the course content?).
2. End with a specific argumentative claim--your thesis
(e.g. “In Augustine’s Confessions, we find many personal
dilemmas still relevant to modern life.”). You may also
opt to preview the progression of your argument (e.g. “In
Augustine’s Confessions, we find many personal
dilemmas still relevant to modern culture, evidenced by
his greed, his theological experimentation, and his sense
of despair when faced with personal loss.”)
3. Start each body paragraph with a distinct topic
sentence; this tells the reader how the paragraph
functions in the context of the argument (e.g. “One way
in which Augustine’s confessions are still relevant to
modern society is his greed, shown in his willingness to
steal the pears despite being well-fed and otherwise
content”).
4. Each paragraph should have distinct content based on
some organizational principle (e.g. ethics, history,
financial, legal, biblical, thematic (as in this example),
etc.)
5. If your thesis is controversial, you may also opt to
include a concession. This acknowledges a typical
argument your opposition would present to you (e.g.
“However, some theologians have claimed that the
realities of the modern world have made Augustine less
relevant to modern theological dilemmas. One example
is Dr. NoName, who states…”).
6. Immediately following, and in about as much space,
refute the opposition using evidence which undermines
their criticism.
7. Conclude and broaden the scope of your argument,
and this time, contextualize it in terms of relevance to
your audience and society.
*The example above is for illustration only.
Placement of the thesis my vary; the number of
points (and paragraphs composing them) can change.

The document provides guidance on writing proposals, specifically the introduction and background sections. It discusses including the main purpose of research, explaining the background and rationale by surveying literature, and showing how the proposed work will further knowledge. The introduction should state the research problem, provide context and rationale, describe issues and objectives, and define key concepts. The background section should provide an overview of previous relevant work, including strengths and weaknesses. Common mistakes in proposal writing like lack of focus or context are also outlined.
This document provides definitions and key features of case study research. It defines a case study as an in-depth investigation of a contemporary phenomenon in its real-life context. Case studies look closely at one or a small number of organizations, events, or individuals, usually over time. The goal is to develop a comprehensive understanding of the specific case. Case studies are appropriate when researchers are asking "how" and "why" questions about contemporary events over which they have little control.

English 101
Final Research Argument Paper
The purpose of your final essay is to develop a persuasive argument about an issue of
social, political, or historical significance. You will apply critical thought and research
skills in support of your argument to substantiate the claims that you are making. You
want to show your audience that you are knowledgeable about your subject and have
done the necessary research to support your claims.
*NOTE*: The topic of tlris essav must be different from the topic you chose for your
previous argumentative essay. Choose a topic that both interests you AND that you feel
passionate about. If you do not care about the subject, it will be difficult to produce a
thoughtful essay. Think of this assignment as similar to your argumentative essay, but
with a new topic and more involved research.
Consider this information when formulating your essay:
Thesis
Your thesis will introduce the main claim yoll are making as your argument. A clear
thesis is so in-rporlant because it sen,es as the foundation on u'hich you r.r,ill build the rest
of youi paper. A strong thesis is one that has a stroilg. artictilate^ and li,ell-developed
claim. This can be difficult to do. You have to find a ''happy rnedium" between hyper-
specify and generalness. You will rnake your case u.ithin the body of the essay, so don't
go into extreme detail in your thesis. At the salne tirne. avoid vague language that off-ers
no real direction.
In providing this concise, not-too-specific and not-too-vague statement of your argument,
you also provide a qr-rick summary of the scope ol yor-rr paper, the ground it will cover. In
this capacity, the thesis staternent is a roaclnrcLp that te1ls youl reader not only the points
that you will rnake, but also the ordel in
"r,'hich
1'ou will make them. You must also
identify youl target audience-who you are dilectly arguing to, and so trying to
persuade-in the thesis.
Research and Supporting Paragraphs
I(eep one idea to one paragraph. If yor-r begin to transition into a new idea, it belongs in a
new paraEaph. There are solne sirnple ways to tell if you a1'e on the same topic or a new
one. You can have one idea and several bits of supporting evidence within a single
paragraph. You can also have several points in a single paragraph as long as they relate to
the overall topic of the paraEapli. If the.single points staft to get 1ong, then perhaps
elaborating on each of them and placing thern in their own palaEaphs is the ror-rte to go.
Make sure you explain how your resealch supports your clairn. If you present data to
Sror-rr audience without explaining horv it supporls your thesis your readers may not make
a connection between the two or they rnay draw different conclusions.
Don't avoid the opposing side of an argument. Insteacl. include the opposing side as a
counterclairn. Find out what the other side is saying and respond to it within your own
argum.

ESSAY 5—Writing about Drama The goal of this assignment i.docxYASHU40
ESSAY 5—Writing about Drama
The goal of this assignment is to understand the relevance of a play’s overall message (or messages) for
today’s society. Many passionate issues are presented in the major plays that are assigned for Comp. II.
Hopefully, you can find one or two that might get your juices flowing enough to develop a sound argument
based on logical reasoning! I expect you to use the literature as a springboard to the issues themselves.
Put on your critical thinking caps and discover the connections that link earlier societies to today’s society,
based on the issues identified in the play. For example, you might discuss the cultural stereotypes of
Eastern and Western societies and how they are distorted in M. Butterfly. Consider the theme of Women
and the Law and how Trifles illustrates stereotypical male/female roles in earlier Americana. Finally, you
might analyze the irony in Beauty. The sky’s the limit!
Once you decide upon a focus for your paper, you must provide examples or illustrations as evidence that
will support your argument. Quotes from the play will enhance your paper, but be careful not to overdo!
(Critical questions for reading plays can be found in your textbook on page 722.)
For an effective argument, you must include the following information:
Make an overall claim--your thesis about an issue presented in the literature.
Briefly describe the drama being used to illustrate the issue.
Select specific details and quotes from the play as evidence to support your ideas.
Provide support from at least four (4) credible outside sources.
Organize your argument in a manner that is easy to follow—introduce the play and playwright in the
introductory paragraph and include your thesis statement. The body paragraphs will continue to develop
the arguments you are making about the issues presented in the play along with evidence from credible
sources supporting or refuting your argument. Support each opinion sufficiently. Avoid over-generalizing
in your judgments or claims. Be sure to have an effective introduction, clear thesis, and effective
conclusion.
**Since this is a major research assignment, you must include at least four (4) properly documented
outside reference sources, in addition to quoting from the text, and include a Works Cited page.
Sources that are by themselves considered “substantial” are articles in scholarly journals or separate
critical books that either focus specifically on the author or the particular text you've selected or
provide critical/theoretical background for the subject, period or genre. Select secondary material
that can give you historical, sociological, psychological, feminist, theoretical, etc., perspectives on the
play you’ve chosen. Do not use encyclopedias, quotation books/websites, student essays posted
online, study guides, or other similar sources. You will find a wealth of wonderful sources by
accessing the online d ...

Prepare an OUTLINE for your Argumentative Final Project Essay. Distributed March 22, 2018
Submission due at Titanium Assignments by Friday, April 6, 12pm (noon).
Suggested Length: 1 page, single-spaced
Note: This handout is adapted from one by historian and Harvard professor Jill Lepore.
By your project thinking and writing, you can engage and practice making a contribution toward
our course objectives --
This course takes Asian women living in the US as the focus of analyses of identity,
culture, and political economy. We will examine works by and about Asian American
women from multiple disciplines, in order to elucidate how Asian American women
have been represented and treated as the objects of history and culture, as well as
how Asian American women in turn shape these forces. By exploring the areas of
immigration and settlement, social stereotyping, identity construction, family,
community, labor, organized resistance, and cultural production, we will attempt to
answer questions such as: Who are “Asian American women”? What are the
commonalities and differences of racialization, gender, class, sexuality, language and
culture that delineate this category? How do Asian American women negotiate the
complexities of multiple identities and positions of their lived experiences, both in the
United States and transnational spaces?
Requirement 1: What am I going to argue? This is my THESIS.
An argumentative or persuasive piece of writing must begin with a debatable thesis or claim. In other words, the
thesis must be something that people could reasonably have differing opinions on. If your thesis is something that is
generally agreed upon or accepted as fact then there is no reason to try to persuade people.
__ In general, your thesis statement should be 1-2 sentences long and should be found at the end
of your first paragraph (or occasionally your second paragraph).
Requirement 2: A Well-Organized Body
The body of the paper is where you flesh out your thesis and present your evidence. Most people
find it helpful to outline before beginning to write. It is important that you move logically from
point to point as you move from paragraph to paragraph.
__ Present each of your paragraphs and its central idea.
This central idea is generally expressed in a topic sentence which is usually the first or second sentence in a
paragraph. Many people find it helpful to string their topic sentences together after completing an essay. This
should produce a coherent paragraph beginning with your thesis statement.
! What sequence of evidence best supports your claims?
! How and where will you engage both with what other scholars have written about your
subject, or broader interpretations about his period in history, or with theories about the
past, or historical forces?
! Are there counter-arguments that you haven’t considered?

Introduction
In life, there are universal laws that govern everything we do. These laws are so perfect that if you were to align yourself with them, you could have so much prosperity that it would be coming out of your ears. This is because God created the universe in the image and likeness of him. It is failure to follow the universal laws that causes one to fail. The laws that were created consisted of the following: ·
Law of Gratitude: The Law of Gratitude states that you must show gratitude for what you have. By having gratitude, you speed your growth and success faster than you normally would. This is because if you appreciate the things you have, even if they are small things, you are open to receiving more.
Law of Attraction: The Law of Attraction states that if you focus your attention on something long enough you will get it. It all starts in the mind. You think of something and when you think of it, you manifest that in your life. This could be a mental picture of a check or actual cash, but you think about it with an image.
Law of Karma: the Law of Karma states that if you go out and do something bad, it will come back to you with something bad. If you do well for others, good things happen to you. The principle here is to know you can create good or bad through your actions. There will always be an effect no matter what.
Law of Love: the Law of Love states that love is more than emotion or feeling; it is energy. It has substance and can be felt. Love is also considered acceptance of oneself or others. This means that no matter what you do in life if you do not approach or leave the situation out of love, it won't work.
Law of Allowing: The Law of Allowing states that for us to get what we want, we must be receptive to it. We can't merely say to the Universe that we want something if we don't allow ourselves to receive it. This will defeat our purpose for wanting it in the first place.
Law of Vibration: the Law of Vibration states that if you wish on something and use your thoughts to visualize it, you are halfway there to get it. To complete the cycle you must use the Law of Vibration to feel part of what you want. Do this and you'll have anything you want in life.
For everything to function properly there has to be structure. Without structure, our world, or universe, would be in utter chaos. Successful people understand universal laws and apply them daily. They may not acknowledge that to you, but they do follow the laws. There is a higher power and this higher power controls the universe and what we get out of it. People who know this, but wish to direct their own lives, follow the reasons. Successful people don't sit around and say "I'll try," they say yes and act on it.
Chapter - 1
The Law of Attraction
The law of attraction is the most powerful force in the universe. If you work against it, it can only bring you pain and misery. Successful people know this but have kept it hidden from the lower class for centuries because th

HUM 200 Project Part Two Speaker Notes Draft Guidelines and Rubric
Overview: An effective presentation includes a summary of the main points in the presentation slides, but the presenter adds additional content to unpack each
point on the slides. This is where speaker notes are particularly useful. Some presenters have the capability of memorizing the details and being cued by the
outline in the presentation, or even speaking off the cuff. However, for the purposes of this project, you will document your speaker notes to accompany the
presentation slides you will develop in Week 8. This step will help you consider the outline of your presentation and the content you will want to include on each
slide.
Prompt: Your presentation will have accompanying speaker notes to fill in the details you would include in the presentation, but not necessarily include in the
presentations slides. Your speaker notes can either be bulleted points for each step of your presentation or more developed paragraphs to help you deliver the
presentation. This part is up to you; either way, these notes should contain substantial details to address each of the required parts of your presentation.
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
I. Provide a brief overview of your artifacts, theme, and thesis statement. How are they situated within the domain of the humanities?
II. Explain how the theme, as it is expressed in the cultural artifacts, and thesis statement impact the audience. In other words, how is the theme relevant
to members of the audience? Why should the audience care about your thesis statement? Support your response with specific examples from your
exploration document.
III. Describe the evidence from subjective and objective cultural analyses that you have to support your conclusions about the impact of the theme and
cultural artifacts on you personally and on your audience. Support your response with specific examples from your exploration document.
IV. Explain why the theme and cultural artifacts are important to you personally. In other wo ...
The document discusses stress positions in sentences and how they influence a reader's perspective. It notes that the first noun or pronoun mentioned is usually the perspective or stress position. It then provides examples of arranging temperature data in different tables and explains how putting time in the first column and temperature in the second makes the data easier to interpret. The document also discusses using punctuation like semicolons and colons to create multiple stress positions in a sentence.
This tutorial focuses on fine-tuning academic writing skills including argument consistency, claim support, logic, clarity, and conciseness. It discusses ensuring facts are distinguished from opinions and certainties from uncertainties. Common logical fallacies like hasty generalizations and oversimplification are explained. The tutorial also covers using relative clauses correctly, being concise, editing, and style guidelines. Finally, it discusses paragraph structure, plagiarism in cultural context, linguistic differences between languages, and rhetorical differences in logic and academic writing approaches across cultures.
A thesis statement is a complete sentence that expresses the main argument or claim of an academic paper. It should cover all the key points that will be discussed in the body paragraphs and prove the author's position on the topic. A good thesis statement is specific enough to guide the paper but broad enough to allow for detailed explanation and evidence in the body. It can be either explicit by directly stating the purpose or implicit by implying the argument through the information given.
International studies hedging and tentative language(2)hoeka1
The document discusses hedging and tentative language in academic writing. It provides examples of how to distance claims from data using phrases like "based on limited data" or "in the view of some experts". It also discusses using tentative verbs like "tend" instead of definite claims, and qualifying generalizations by using phrases like "many children" instead of "all children". The document also covers choosing weaker verbs like "contributed to" instead of "led to". Finally, it discusses combining different hedging techniques but not overusing them.
This document provides an overview of 7 cases that will be discussed in a class on international studies. The cases are: UN Security Council reforms, Russia/Ukraine/NATO, Chinese Sea/Rise of China, Euro crisis/Greece/Germany, Mali and the Sahel region, War on Terror/ISIS, and Iran Nuclear Deal. For each case, a brief background is given on topics related to ongoing conflicts, political instability, and debates among scholars on international relations and foreign policy issues.
This document discusses academic reading, writing, and thesis statements. It provides guidance on analyzing a text for how the author establishes authority, makes arguments debatable, and states their main point. It also discusses writing a thesis statement, including that it should cover all paper information in a complete sentence stating what will be proved. An example thesis covers three topics that will be discussed in body paragraphs. Both implicit and explicit thesis statements are described.

- shows concession (although, despite) to indicate there is a niche to accomodate
the thesis statement / researchquestion
- may include a definition
- may contain interesting statistics or ananecdote

and the research is relevant
- usually ends with your thesis statement / researchquestion
7. LeidenUniversity.Theuniversityto discover.
The introduction:verbs andtenses
Some questions:
- Most introductions make use of the present perfect tense or a present simple
tense at the beginning of the paper.Why?

perspective and without referring to data, numbers, graphs or tables.
- It should –and this is the main function of a conclusion –commenton and
attempt to interpret these findings. Why did we observe this trend? What may
have caused it?
- (It should indicate what is still missing in the current research and what may be
discussed or investigated in a future paper.)

- Claims should bearguable as they affect the complexity, effectiveness, and
quality of your entire essay.

Some logicalfallacies
- Hasty generalisation (jumping to a conclusion, claim based on too little evidence):
“Commercials in favour of unhealthy food should beforbidden, because they
lead to a consumption-oriented society and subsequently to people becoming
overweight.”
- Oversimplification (linking two eventsas if one caused the other directly,
whereas the causes may be more complex):“Obesity leads to people becoming
depressed.”
- Inappropriate appeal to the reader/ inappropriate tone: “Obesity costs an
unnecessary amount of valuable health caretime, time that could be better spent
on curing other diseases.”
