Clayton State University Learning Effects of Covid in Schools Question

 

WHAT I EXPECT FROM THIS ESSAY

1. I expect that YOUR RESEARCH WILL SUPPLEMENT YOUR ARGUMENT not that it will dominate it.  This paper is not supposed to be a random collection of outside quotations.  This is still YOUR THESIS, YOUR PRIMARY POINTS, and YOUR ARGUMENT TO DEVELOP YOUR THESIS

.2. As a rule of thumb, the quotes from your primary and secondary sources shouldn’t be more than 20% of your paper.  Your goal should be between 10-15%.

3. Your paper should be foregrounded in LOGOS, not ethos or pathos.  You may use some ethos or pathos if it helps you to make your point, but the dominant mode of persuasion that you should be using in this paper is logos.

4. I EXPECT DIRECT QUOTES FROM YOUR RESEARCH.

5. Use SPECIFIC DETAIL Do not be vague.  This is where direct quotes can help you.
