Third
Research-Supported Essay Assignment
For
your third essay, your choices are advertising, the Pledge of Allegiance,
and racial profiling. Or, you may
write on one of the controversies you did not choose earlier for the first or
second essay.
The
research expectations are the same as for the other essays: You will turn in a
prospectus & bibliography with at least five articles on it.
In the final essay, you must use at least one article from our textbook and two
from NC LIVE. If you have questions, see the first essay assignment sheet.
The
length expectation remains the same: 4-5
typed, double-spaced pages.
A rough draft conference will be optional, but I hope you will schedule one so that I can help you. Check the syllabus for the due dates for the prospectus & bibliography, the rough draft conference, and the final essay.
Y
Please
be aware that there is no opportunity for revision of the final essay; do your
best work the first time.
