Assignment: Think about the process you used to plan, research, draft, and revise your Module 6 Essay. Decide how you could improve this process. Focus on one specific potential improvement. Then, write a post to:

1. Describe that one specific potential improvement.
2. Present your specific plan for making that improvement.
3. Analyze potential obstacles and ways to overcome them.

Length: Minimum of at least three paragraphs with at least five sentences in each.

Depending upon the complexity of your topic, you may need more paragraphs and sentences to develop your thesis and topic sentences with sufficient examples and logical reasoning.  

Your grade is based on two posts -- your original post first and then at least one reply to another student.

 

No Attachments:  You don't need the academic formatting (double-spacing, first four lines with your name, indenting, etc.). 

Focusing Your Topic: Choose a potential improvement that is appropriately focused. 

Examples of Good and Bad Topics: 

• Learning the guidelines for using apostrophes is too narrow. However, eliminating punctuation errors is sufficiently broad because you would have to write about the process of starting with memorizing the eight parts of speech and learning the basic sentence patterns.
• Learning to write effective topic sentences is too narrow. However, writing effective topic sentences and adequate support for them would be a good topic choice. 
• Learning to use a historical fact as an introductory technique is too narrow. However, writing more compelling introductions could be an excellent topic.
• Using I and me in formal essays is too narrow. However, using a variety of pronouns effectively in different contexts works well for this assignment.
• Reading your sentences aloud slowly when you edit is too narrow. However, comparing several editing strategies to decide the best one to use when time is limited could be an intriguing topic choice.

These are examples that students may use, but you don't have to. If you read the table of contents and the index of your textbook, it could help you choose a topic. Studying the feedback on essays might be helpful, too.

Using One Direct Quote: You may use one direct quote from the textbook but no other sources. The quote may appear anywhere in your discussion post.

Follow the rules you have learned this semester for including the direct quote correctly. Don't include a works cited page for your direct quote because we know the directly copied words come from the textbook. 

Original Ideas and Phrasing: Other than this one directly copied direct quote, the phrasing must be your own original thoughts and writing style, but you may use ideas from the textbook to develop your thesis because the writing and grammar principles are common knowledge. One author doesn't own them. However, the authors of our textbook own the way they phrased their ideas.

Your grade is based on two posts -- your original post first and then at least one reply to another student.
