Question:Week 6 Worksheet
Instructions: Scroll to Chapter 7 of your GRST online textbook (found in the Reading & Study folder) and complete Practice 7.7 on creating a strong thesis. All papers should have a thesis statement. Depending on the type of paper you are writing, the thesis may be more or less argumentative, more or less personal, and more or less risky. However, all papers should have a unified point or main idea that they want to discuss in a fresh, insightful way. At the end, add the thesis statement you are developing for your own paper.
Â
Assignment Goal: Understand the difference between a strong or weak thesis. Think critically about your own thesis and how it might compare to others in your field of study. Post your completed worksheet on Blackboard.
Â
Practice 7.7: Write a sentence or two about each of the following thesis statements. If they are weak, explain why. If they are good, explain why as well.
Â
Note: These statements come from many places on the political, religious, and ethical spectrum. Your job is not to critique the views expressed in these statements, but to critique their adequacy as thesis statements. Remember, just as your beliefs might offend someone from a different religious background, so also might someone elseâs do the same to you. On the other hand, you may agree with many of these statements but find them to be poor as thesis statements. Focus on the quality of the statement as the guiding thesis for a research paperânot on the quality of the opinion expressed.
