Academic Literary Analysis Essay – 3-4 pages plus Works Cited
Argument:
This assignment will allow you to analyze a theme in Jacqueline Woodson’s award-winning novel Another Brooklyn. You will identify a theme and analyze that theme, supporting it with ample textual evidence (close reading of details, passages, and scenes from the book).
Theme:
A theme is what a book says about an issue or idea in the book. If “economics” is an idea in the work, then the thesis assertion: “Another Brooklyn argues that extreme poverty defines life in Brooklyn” is the theme. Reasonable people can disagree with this theme - in other words, you have to make your case.
You will need to pay special attention to narrowing your theme. “Money is important” is much too broad and vague a theme. “Lifting one’s family out of destitution is more important in the book than individual desire” is a narrower and more specific theme. Another way to emphasis this thesis: “The family is more important than the individual in term of economic survival in Jacqueline Woodson’s award-winning work Another Brooklyn.”
Requirements:
The essay needs to be approximately three to four pages double-spaced, Times New Roman 12 inch Font. It will need to correctly cite and/or paraphrase passages from the text in correct MLA form.
Possible Issues:
The class will come up with a list of possible topics. You will want to choose a topic about which you are excited; one that intrigues you and that will hold your interest for the weeks that you work on this essay. Remember that the best essays attempt to answer questions (what is the work saying about income inequality?); they don’t start with answers. In short, your thesis should be able to be debated.
Process:
After choosing an issue that interests you, return to the text. Skim the text with this issue in mind, marking down relevant passages. Think of what the novel is saying about this issue (i.e. your theme), marshal evidence from the text, and sketch out an essay draft for conference. As you revise the essay, think about organization and argument support, be sure you cite specific details, lines, passages or scenes to support your claims, and be sure you explain how they support your claims. Remember that revision is not correction, it is a re-seeing of your argument and involves content and organization. Finally, edit the essay at the sentence level for style and grammar. The final version of the essay is due with the first draft(s) attached.
A passing essay must:
Content
· have a clear, focused, and arguable thesis statement
· develop this argument thoroughly
· support this argument adequately with passages from the text
· integrate supporting quotes and paraphrases smoothly and correctly into the argument (make sure quotes are accurate)
· adequately addresses opposing evidence
· conclude somewhere near the bottom of page three (or on a subsequent page)
· demonstrate revision (there should be substantial differences betwee.

Methodology, results, discussion general comments
This document provides commentary and suggestions for improving various sections of a research paper, including the methodology, results, discussion, and overall flow. Key points addressed include properly placing the research questions, avoiding simply restating results in the discussion, using statistics like ANOVA and chi-square to test relationships between variables, including tables and figures, avoiding over-generalization, and ensuring the discussion section synthesizes interpretations and explains the meaning and implications of the results.
Cronbach joanna-attitude-q7
This document discusses the reliability of an attitude scale based on Cronbach's alpha. It analyzes data from Joanna's survey on Q7 and was conducted by Aiden Yeh at Wenzao Ursuline University. The Cronbach's alpha for the scale was calculated to be 0.844, indicating good internal consistency among the items.
Sample cronbach analysis using kara
A Cronbach's alpha analysis was conducted on a sample of 110 participants to analyze the internal consistency of items measuring a living standards construct. The analysis found a Cronbach's alpha of 0.571, indicating low reliability. Examination of the Cronbach's alpha if items were deleted showed that one item, Japan111, had a very low corrected item-total correlation and could be removed. Even with its removal, the overall reliability of the scale would remain low. Low Cronbach's alpha can be due to factors such as a small number of items, poor interrelatedness between items, or measuring heterogeneous constructs. When alpha is low, items with low inter-correlations should be revised or removed.
Why we run cronbach’s alpha
Cronbach's alpha is a measure of internal consistency, which is used to determine if the items in a survey or questionnaire reliably measure the same concept. It ranges from 0 to 1, with higher numbers indicating greater reliability. An acceptable alpha is between 0.7-0.95. Cronbach's alpha measures how well items correlate with each other and with the total test. It is reported along with the mean to indicate the reliability of a scale. The reliability statistics table in SPSS shows the actual alpha value and whether removing any items would increase or decrease the value.
Correlation satisfaction-loyalty
This document discusses correlation analysis and provides instructions on how to perform bivariate correlation in a statistics program. It analyzes the correlation between two variables, satisfaction and loyalty, finding a negative correlation where increased satisfaction is linked to decreased loyalty. It questions whether this negative correlation makes logical sense. The document also provides an example of correlating sales and fuel efficiency data and notes that crosstabulation may provide better results than correlation analysis alone.
Getting frequency data
This document provides instructions for obtaining frequency data in SPSS. It describes selecting 'Frequency' under 'Descriptive Statistics' and 'Analyze', then choosing demographic and Likert scale variables to output frequency counts, percentages, and descriptive statistics including mode, mean, standard deviation, and variance. The output is saved as a file showing the frequency and percentage results for the demographic and scale items.
Measurement scales
This document discusses different types of measurement scales used in research: nominal, ordinal, interval, and ratio. Nominal scales involve categories with no intrinsic ordering, while ordinal scales involve ordered but non-quantified categories. Interval scales have equal intervals between points, and ratio scales have a true zero point, allowing ratios to be calculated. The type of scale used constrains the types of analysis that can be performed on the data. Questions can be designed to collect different types of data depending on the scale, from multiple choice to rankings to numerical values.
Photo press release with task
This document provides guidance and resources for writing a press release for an event at Wenzao Ursuline University. It includes examples of press releases and outlines the key elements that should be included such as the who, what, when, where, why and details. Students are tasked with writing a press release on any event in their department or at Wenzao, following the outlined format and elements, and presenting it visually in Word, PowerPoint or Publisher.
