Homework: Diagnostic Essay
Write a three to five paragraph essay about one of the topics below. Your essay should have an introduction, body, and conclusion and be as compositional sound as possible. Since this is a diagnostic essay, my goal here is to get an accurate idea of where you are in your compositional and critical thinking skills. So for this first homework, I will be giving you general feedback and a grade for completing the task, rather than a grade on how well the essay is written.
i. What makes certain stories more memorable than others?
ii. Why is literature important in the world?
iii. What is an important narrative to you, your community, or our country right now?
Format your homework according to the following formatting requirements:
i) The answer should be typed, using Times New Roman font (size 12), double spaced, with one-inch margins on all sides.
ii) The response also includes a cover page containing the title of the homework, the student's name, the course title, and the date. The cover page is not included in the required page length.
iii) Also include a reference page. The Citations and references must follow APA format. The reference page is not included in the required page length.
