Writing to Convince Essay (Position Essay) English 10000 – F.docxericbrooks84875
Writing to Convince Essay (Position Essay)
English 10000 – Fall 2015
Writing Assignment
In the second major essay, you were asked to seek a modern social issue that interests you (perhaps
because of your major, a situation in your life, and/or other curiosity). Now that you have begun
researching that issue, you’re asked to identify a specific argument (typically done by finding a problem
to solve). Then, develop a solution (or at least a partial solution) to that problem and craft an argument
that convinces readers that your position on the issue is valid and workable. You may use information
and research from the rhetorical analysis assignment. Your argument must be related to your
professional or academic goals. These arguments need to be real and personal.
When you write to convince, you need to have
a specific purpose in mind,
a strong sense of your audience, and
an idea of what might be an effective way to convince that audience (rhetorical analysis)
In this essay, you need to take a stand on a controversial idea, issue, or practice and provide sufficient
evidence to support that stand, the goal being that your readers will consider changing their behaviors
or beliefs in order to solve a “problem.” Because argument asks for change, you cannot defend the
status quo (unless the status quo is being challenged.
Rhetorical Knowledge
Purpose
What exactly is your goal (x is so/x is good/x should be done)? What can you reasonably expect?
Rhetorical Situation
Your relationship as a writer to your audience, your subject, your purpose, and your motivation
(exigency) are all factors that must be taken into account.
Voice and tone
Tone is very important in convincing others to adopt your viewpoint – should you come across strong?
Subdued? Casual? Caustic?
Critical Thinking, Reading, and Writing Strategies
I. Craft a clearly stated, arguable claim – one that is reasonable and do-able.
II. Present your issue in a compelling way.
III. Be aware of your audience(s).
IV. Provide sufficient reasons AND evidence for those reasons.
V. Use rhetorical appeals effectively.
VI. Acknowledge and discuss other perspectives on the issue (counterargument).
VII. Conclude with a Call to Action (how individuals can act to solve the problem, a need for more
research/consideration, etc.).
Grading and Submission Guidelines
Your final draft should include at least five academic sources (but preferably six or seven—you
should already have at least two from the Rhetorical Analysis with Annotated Bibliography essay) and
should be:
Typed in Times New Roman 12 font and double-spaced
5-7 pages (not counting the Works Cited page)
In MLA format, including:
o in-text citations and a Works Cited page
o formatting for how to list your information on the first page
o use of header to note your last name and the page number

Discourse analysis involves studying language use above the sentence level. It examines how language is structured and functions in real communication between speakers and listeners or writers and readers. There are various approaches to discourse analysis, such as studying conversational sequences, sociolinguistic meanings created in interactions, and how discourse constitutes cultural objects or realizes social actions. Analysing discourse requires considering factors like context, participants, and the implications of utterances for what follows in a discussion. While labor-intensive, discourse analysis provides insights into how language shapes social life and realities.

Outlining
Step 1: Creating a rough outline
- It begins with your research question.
- It identifies the focus of the research question.
- It lists several categories of answers to your research question. Those categories of answers SHOULD come from your reading sources. Thus, when reading your sources, you should do A FOCUSED REDDING of your sources about your focus of research question. Here one very important tip is while reading, take your notes, as the notes will guide you to create your outline.
Example: Rough Outline
Research Question: Why do people become addicted to alcohol?
Focus of Research Question: Causes
Thesis Statement: Three are three primary causes of alcohol addiction.
Answers to Research Question:
1. Emotional distress
2. Social pressure
3. Genetic predisposition
Let’s Practice!
(a) Now take out your notebook. As a first step, go back to your working references list and read those sources with the goal of finding answers for your research question. It’s a great idea to take any notes while reading.
(b) Create a rough outline (like the box above) for your paper that includes your research question, focus of research question, thesis statement, and a list of potential supporting points (answers to your research question) from your sources and notes.
Step 2: Expanding your rough outline with evidence
When we use information from sources to explain the main points in body paragraphs, we call that information “evidence.” In other words, your source materials are the places where you will find evidences to answer your research question. However, it’s likely that only some of that information will work as evidence in your paper. You need to decide which information to use as evidence. Your paper will be more convincing if you use the following guidelines when choosing evidence.
Guideline 1: Choose information that you understand easily and can explain clearly.
Think about whether you understand each idea well enough to explain it in your own words. If you don’t understand the information, you won’t be able to write about it clearly, and it will better to omit it.
Guideline 2: Choose ideas that are DIRECTLY and SPECIFICALLY related to the point you are making.
Sometimes it’s tempting to include interesting details that are related to your topic in a general way but don’t help to explain your specific supporting points.
Guideline 3: Choose a variety of types of evidence
Writers can support their ideas with several kinds of information. The following are there common types of evidence that you may find as you look through your sources.
(a) Einstein Evidence
Einstein evidence shows that other scholars or thinkers on the topic have come to the same conclusions as you have. When using this kind of evidence, provide as much information as you can about the expert. For example, you might include where you found the information, the research the expert has done, or the university where he or ...

Writing an Effective Introduction and Conclusion for your PresentationKelly Soczka Steidinger
This document provides tips and guidelines for effectively structuring introductions, bodies, and conclusions of speeches. It begins by outlining the key components of an introduction: getting the audience's attention with an attention-getting device, revealing the topic and purpose with a thesis statement, and establishing credibility. The document then discusses how to establish credibility by drawing from personal experience, research, or expertise. It also notes that the introduction should preview the main points that will be covered in the body. Finally, it provides tips for writing an effective conclusion such as signaling the end, summarizing main points, and restating the thesis in a memorable way.
Discourse analysis studies how language is used in real-world contexts and interactions to accomplish social actions and shape understandings. It examines both written and spoken language use across various domains. Several key approaches to discourse analysis include speech act theory, interactional sociolinguistics, ethnography of communication, pragmatics, conversation analysis, and variationist sociolinguistics. Discourse analysts seek to understand how language both reflects and constructs social phenomena through close analysis of natural language data.

What was their hypothesis?
How many participants did they have?

Refer to "CLC Health Issue Analysis Overview."
Resource 1: CLC Health Issue Analysis Overview
Group work has benefits and liabilities. EVERYONE assigned to a CLC is expected to equally participate in the work in terms of time and quality of effort. Each participant has strengths and it is reasonable to apportion the work to make best use of this. Some are natural leaders. Our strengths can be our greatest liabilities: No one wants to be bossed around no matter how skilled the boss is. Honest communication is critical to effective group work. The best way to avoid conflict is to set very clear expectations up front. Then, if someone does not do what is expected him/her, he/she can be referred to the original agreement rather than have the confrontation become personal.
Course instructors are able to observe the group process in the CLC forum. If the work takes place outside the forum, this information will be absent. Be certain (even if communicating via e-mail, phone, or face-to-face) to record the communication in the CLC forum.

Each of the written components of the CLC project will be 500-1,000 words. These papers should be in APA format with a title and a reference page. An abstract is not required.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like

Discourse analysis involves studying language use above the sentence level. It examines how language is structured and functions in real communication between speakers and listeners or writers and readers. There are various approaches to discourse analysis, such as studying conversational sequences, sociolinguistic meanings created in interactions, and how discourse constitutes cultural objects or realizes social actions. Analysing discourse requires considering factors like context, participants, and the implications of utterances for what follows in a discussion. While labor-intensive, discourse analysis provides insights into how language shapes social life and realities.

Outlining
Step 1: Creating a rough outline
- It begins with your research question.
- It identifies the focus of the research question.
- It lists several categories of answers to your research question. Those categories of answers SHOULD come from your reading sources. Thus, when reading your sources, you should do A FOCUSED REDDING of your sources about your focus of research question. Here one very important tip is while reading, take your notes, as the notes will guide you to create your outline.
Example: Rough Outline
Research Question: Why do people become addicted to alcohol?
Focus of Research Question: Causes
Thesis Statement: Three are three primary causes of alcohol addiction.
Answers to Research Question:
1. Emotional distress
2. Social pressure
3. Genetic predisposition
Let’s Practice!
(a) Now take out your notebook. As a first step, go back to your working references list and read those sources with the goal of finding answers for your research question. It’s a great idea to take any notes while reading.
(b) Create a rough outline (like the box above) for your paper that includes your research question, focus of research question, thesis statement, and a list of potential supporting points (answers to your research question) from your sources and notes.
Step 2: Expanding your rough outline with evidence
When we use information from sources to explain the main points in body paragraphs, we call that information “evidence.” In other words, your source materials are the places where you will find evidences to answer your research question. However, it’s likely that only some of that information will work as evidence in your paper. You need to decide which information to use as evidence. Your paper will be more convincing if you use the following guidelines when choosing evidence.
Guideline 1: Choose information that you understand easily and can explain clearly.
Think about whether you understand each idea well enough to explain it in your own words. If you don’t understand the information, you won’t be able to write about it clearly, and it will better to omit it.
Guideline 2: Choose ideas that are DIRECTLY and SPECIFICALLY related to the point you are making.
Sometimes it’s tempting to include interesting details that are related to your topic in a general way but don’t help to explain your specific supporting points.
Guideline 3: Choose a variety of types of evidence
Writers can support their ideas with several kinds of information. The following are there common types of evidence that you may find as you look through your sources.
(a) Einstein Evidence
Einstein evidence shows that other scholars or thinkers on the topic have come to the same conclusions as you have. When using this kind of evidence, provide as much information as you can about the expert. For example, you might include where you found the information, the research the expert has done, or the university where he or ...

31. Writing a paragraph (samples) Not only is the food in Europe different from Japanese food, but so are the meal customs and table manners . There are some important differences between what Europeans do at mealtime and what we usually do . Here are some useful tips for what Japanese visitors to France and Italy should and should not do when eating meals with the local people. In France, arrive on time because this is a sign of politeness. But in Italy, it is a good idea to arrive just a little late. In both countries it is polite to bring a gift, for example a bottle of wine or some sweets. Flowers are also a good gift, but don’t give people red roses because they express love – the romantic kind. In addition, table manners are important customs to observe while traveling there . For example, keep the fork in your left hand and the knife in your right. Remember that it’s not polite to put your elbows on the table. People in France do not like to see a person take a bit from a large piece of bread. Instead, you should tear off a smaller piece of bread and bring that to your mouth to bite. While Italian sometimes hang the napkin from the neck to keep off sauce stains, the French people keep their napkins in their laps. So you can see that it helps to know a bit about meal customs before you travel to Europe. Topic Sentence Topic Sentence Concluding Sentence Connecting to Paragraph before

Rationale: When students spend time thinking about the writing process, they will be able to plan their writing strategies more effectively. Activity: The facilitator may ask students about their own writing processes and invite them to share with the group. While students may follow a “process” for writing, they may not be able to identify all of the steps they go through to write a paper.
Rationale: Though students engage in a writing process, they may not be conscious of the steps it entails. Some students who have trouble organizing their thoughts struggle because they do not follow a consistent writing process or they skip steps within the process. This slide presents some important reasons to identify the steps in the writing process. By thinking about the writing process, students may be able to make the process more effective and efficient for themselves. Activity: The facilitator may choose to invite participation by asking students why they need a writing process. Each reason is activated with a mouse click.
Rationale: This slide previews the six steps of the writing process. Each element forms a part of a successful writing experience. Key Concept: The facilitator may explain that the writing process is not necessarily sequential--a linear path from invention to proofreading. Writers may generate a topic, collect some information, organize their notes, go back and collect more information, invent subtopics for their work, go back to organization, etc. The writing process is recursive --it often requires going back and forth between steps to create the strongest work possible. Knowing these steps and strategies, however, can be a great help to writers who struggle with their work.
Key Concept: The first step in the writing process is invention --developing a topic. Students often make the mistake of latching onto the first idea that comes their way. However, by doing some invention exercises, students can give themselves some options for their writing assignments and allow themselves to consider the ideas that are the most manageable, appropriate to the assignment, and, above all, interesting to the writer. If the writer is bored with the topic, it will show through in the final product.
Key Concept: Brainstorming is a method for coming up with ideas for a project. The key to brainstorming is to write down everything that pops into your head--the idea you are the least certain about may be the one you use for your paper! Brainstorming is a way writers can provide themselves with topic options. One brainstorming technique is called listing . This strategy involves a simple list of every idea that pops into the writer’s mind. From this list, writers might choose to narrow down their topics or branch into a related topic. The important thing is that all of these ideas are down on paper so they won’t be forgotten and potentially useful ideas are not lost in the process. Activity: To involve students, the facilitator might ask students the definitions of “brainstorming” and “listing.” Ask students about the writing situations in which they have found listing to be a useful technique. These experiences may inspire other students to give it a try. Click the mouse after “Listing:” to reveal the brainstormed list.
Key Concept: Clustering is another terrific brainstorming idea. Visual learners may find this technique more effective than listing because of the manner in which ideas are spatially arranged. To start, write the word “ME” in the center of your paper and draw a circle around it. Then branch out from the center circle with any ideas that interest you. If more ideas pop into your head, draw branches stemming from your outer circle. Again, the key is to write down as many ideas as possible. Students may find that two smaller branched ideas may work together well to form one solid topic. Or, students may find that their branch circles form supporting ideas or arguments for their main ideas. It is important not only to find a topic, but to find an angle about that topic that can be argued within an essay. Once students find an idea they like, they might form a new cluster by putting their main idea in the center, and then build supporting claims in branched circles. Activity: If the class is about to work on a new writing assignment, it might be a good idea to pause here and have them do some brainstorming by creating their own lists or clusters. The facilitator might ask students to share the results of their lists or come around the room and hold up examples of good clusters. Click the mouse after the “ME” circle to see additional branches.
Key Concept: Once students decide on a topic, their next step is to collect information. Activity: The facilitator may ask students where they might go to collect research. Answers will likely include such things as books, magazines, and the Internet. Examples: The facilitator might suggest other forms of research, including indexes for periodicals, newspapers, and academic journals (these can be located through the index link on ThorPlus). In particular, the INSPIRE database and the Academic FullText Search Elite database will provide students with a number of printable periodical sources. Interviews can also be useful, whether by phone, through e-mail, or in person. Often, web authors can be contacted through e-mail links on their web pages and may agree to be interviewed through e-mail. Activity: If students are engaged in a particular research assignment, the facilitator may choose to offer guidance on the best places to locate research for the project. For more information on collection strategies, see the presentation titled “Research and the Internet,” located on this CD-ROM.
Key Concepts: After writers collect information pertaining to their topics, a useful next step is to organize it--decide where to place information in the argument, as well as which information to omit. One easy way to do this is outlining . Argumentative and narrative papers generally have three main sections. The introduction is used to grab the readers’ attention and introduce the main idea or claim, often in the form of a thesis statement. The body consists of several supporting paragraphs that help to elaborate upon the main claim. Finally, the conclusion serves to wrap up the argument and reemphasize the writer’s main ideas. After gathering information in the collection stage, the writer should think about where each piece of information belongs in the course of an argument. By taking time to organize and plan the paper, writers save time and frustration in the drafting stage; they find that they can follow the pattern they have established for themselves in their outlines.

By taking time to organize and plan the paper, writers save time and frustration in the drafting stage; they find that they can follow the pattern they have established for themselves in their outlines.
Rationale: Many students struggle with drafting because they make it the second component of their writing process--right after coming up with a topic-- instead of the fourth, after collecting and organizing. Students also struggle because they do not give themselves enough time to complete the drafting process. Key Concepts: With a little bit of pre-planning and organization, the drafting stage can be both a rewarding and efficient experience. First of all, students can avoid the dreaded procrastination by beginning their projects early. A comfortable place to write--whether with a keyboard or a pencil--also aids concentration. Avoiding distractions, such as television, noisy friends, or computer solitaire, will keep writers focused on their projects. Finally, writers should take breaks, preferably leaving off at a place where they know what comes next. This will make it easier to pick up again after the break. Sometimes completing a draft and coming back to it the next day helps students to look at their work with a fresh pair of eyes and a rejuvenated attitude. Writers should not feel compelled to write chronologically. Sometimes the conclusion can be an easier place to begin than with the thesis statement. With each writing assignment, students will be able to find a personal system that works best for them. Activity: The facilitator may ask students to share tips that they have learned about their own successful drafting habits.
Rationale: Students tend to view revising as a process of altering word choices and correcting spelling errors. Rather, this presentation separates revising--the revaluation of higher-order concerns --from proofreading--the correction of later-order concerns . Key Concepts: Revising is a process of reviewing the paper on the idea-level. It is a process of re-vision --literally re-seeing the argument of the paper. The revising process may involve changes such as the clarification of the thesis, the reorganization of paragraphs, the omission of unneeded information, the addition of supplemental information to back a claim, or the strengthening the introduction or conclusion. The key to revising is the clear communication of ideas from the writer to the intended audience. This is an important step to take following the drafting stage. Following the completion of an entire draft, students may have a stronger conception of their purpose, intended audience, and thesis statement. Feedback from other readers may also contribute toward the need to re-vision (or re-see) the project. Rather than feeling chained to every printed word, students should be encouraged to look at their writing as an evolving piece of work, subject to change. Sometimes a first draft is just that--a first draft. Again, students must be sure to allow themselves enough time to complete the revising process.

Key Concepts: After improving the quality of the content in the revising stage, writers then need to take care of mechanics, including corrections of spelling, punctuation, sentence structure, and documentation style. For more information on sentence structure and punctuation, see “Sentence Clarity and Combining” and “Conquering the Comma,” included on this CD-ROM. For presentations on documentation styles, see “Cross-referencing: Using MLA Format” and “Documenting Sources: Using MLA Format,” also on this CD-ROM.
Examples: Here are a few tips students can use to proofread their papers: The best tip is to read your paper out loud. Reading aloud forces the writer to engage each word verbally. Often typos, spelling errors, and sentence structure problems can be caught this way. If spelling is a big problem, checking through the paper backwards can also help writers to correct errors. Again, checking backwards will help writers to engage every word. Exchanging papers with a friend can also be a good way to check for errors. Sometimes a fresh pair of eyes helps. However, writers need to remember that the paper belongs to them and they are responsible for their work. If a friend corrects something that you don’t think is correct, double check with a grammar book, the OWL web site, or the Writing Lab Grammar Hotline. Sometimes students can develop an overreliance upon technology to correct spelling and grammar errors. However, if you meant to type “Good spelling is important in college” and instead type “Good smelling is important in college,” spell check will not catch the error because “smelling” is a correctly spelled word. Also, many grammar checks function on computer-programmed patterns of words. Often, they cannot process long or complicated sentences. Just because sentences are long or complicated does not mean they are wrong. Having an understanding of grammar yourself is the best way to check over your work.
