When writing your essay, make sure to:
• State a clear, concise thesis in the opening paragraph
• Make explicit reference to the course readings to support your thesis
• Acknowledge and refute the relevant counterargument(s)
• Proofread
I encourage you to structure your essay in the following way:
• Short introduction (including your thesis statement)
• Supporting evidence (from the course readings)
• Discussion of counterargument(s)
• Conclusion
I will evaluate your essay according to these criteria:
• Does the essay state a clear thesis at the beginning?
• Does the essay utilize the course readings to support its thesis?
• Does the essay acknowledge and refute relevant counterargument(s)?
• Is the essay organized in a logical way?
• Is the essay free of typos, grammatical mistakes, and spelling mistakes?
• Does the essay use clear, direct prose to convince me that its thesis is correct?
