Writing Homework Help

Topic: Happiness Studies Informative Paper

What to do: 

• Read the linked articles on the June 9 class materials page- all 3 of them. Take whatever kind of notes you prefer to keep track of the information presented for your own comprehension.
• Following are the article links
• https://www.theatlantic.com/family/archive/2020/04/how-increase-happiness-according-research/609619/
• https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2020/05/200511142141.htm
• https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/fulfillment-any-age/202002/is-it-possible-program-your-happiness
• Choose one key point from each piece. In this case a key point would be an important piece of advice about happiness.
• Develop an informative thesis statement that briefly lists these points.
• Using the quote sandwich approach, educate the reader about each of these points: introduce the point (listing the author and the title of the article), quote directly with quotation marks, then explain the quote in your own words. (attached pdf has the guide for sandwich approach)
• Figure out an introduction and a conclusion that works for you- the introduction should orient the reader to the topic you are going to cover, and the conclusion of the paper should answer an invisible “So what?” question- why this matters now.
