The final essay will require you to summarize the chosen essay (see options below), identify the author’s point of view (argument/thesis), describe a writing strategy that the author uses and state whether it is effective or not and why. You must include examples by quoting the original text. This analysis should be written in 3rd person point of view.
In addition, you will compose a response to the essay, an Author’s Response (you are the author). In your response, you will state your position on the topic and whether you agree with argument or not. You will find one source that is related to the topic, that provides additional perspective that can support your position whether it be the same point of view as the essay or an opposing view. You must include either a direct quote or paraphrase from the resource you have found in your research. The Author’s Response can be written in 1st person point of view.
Select one of the following three articles as the topic of your essay (located in the Norton Field Guide textbook):
“Our Blind Spot About Guns”, Nicholas Kristof, p. 177
“Representation of Disney Princesses in the Media,” Isabelle Gill, p. 759
“Outbreak of the Irrational, Sarah Dzubay,” p. 825

Please take a look at the files attached to this order. No citations are needed. No need to do the recording part, your only job is to produce the SCRIPT for me to read out loud for recording as outlined in the files attached. You may need to do some reading on the book, Not Wanted on the Voyage by Timothy Findley. I need quality work. I mean QUALITY and only QUALITY. Finally, I will be reading this out loud to the class AND recording this for the teacher, so keep that in mind and stage your work appropriately for that setting, if you will.

Students are to complete 600-800 words (NOT INCLUDING QUOTATIONS) formal essay on the play Macbeth by William Shakespeare. Students are expected to draw upon any relevant information from the play to present, analyze, and strengthen their arguments.
Be sure that your essay has a clear thesis and THREE strong and clear supporting arguments (including topic sentences and transitional sentences). Regardless of the question being answered, all essays must include a clear and strong argument – an original idea that you will argue in favour for throughout your paper. Your evidence should include specific references to the play. You ARE required to include sufficient and appropriate quotations (at least one per body paragraph) from the play to help present your argument. Essay must follow proper MLA format and include a Work Cited page.
Essays that lack a clear and concise argument as well as substantial textual evidence will be considered incomplete.
TOPIC : Macbeth is about various kinds of murder (among other things). Does the play distinguish between honourable and dishonourable violence? If so, what is the distinction? Be sure to keep the focus of your argument narrow and specific.

Now that you have finished your research on your issue, you are ready to take a position. The first step is to create a preliminary thesis statement/assertion that explicitly states where you stand on this issue. Supporting your work with good reasons and substantial evidence is essential when taking place on an issue or topic. I would also like to ask you to consider other perspectives other than your positions. I think you should anticipate arguments against your work. If you have ever taken a debate class or have participated in a debate, you probably have heard this maxim: “If you can not make the opposing side’s argument for them. you will not win.” A strong argument acknowledges other perspectives on a topic/issue because it establishes the writer’s credibility by showing that the writer has done their research and has fairly represented their position. Presenting other perspectives also allows the writer to create a counterargument in which the writer can respectfully answer and refute those perspectives that challenge their work.
Your essay must include a title indicative of your article’s content.
For the Research Essay, there must be one consistent thesis throughout the work. I want you to know that the goal here is to present what you intend to argue throughout your career. A well-developed thesis for a Research Essay will accurately identify the final argument of the essay, telling the audience what to expect by the time the report is completed.
The essay should begin by providing a clear sense of the existing discourse community. The opening sections of the paper should take time to explain what initial experts and scholars have to say on the subject and provide a fit background to the existing conversation so outsiders can understand the context of the discussion.
The essay should develop the author’s solution to the issue, providing a solution built on the existing research. This solution should be sound (verifiable, valid, and compelling). The solution must be based on research material.
The essay should include opposing views (s) surrounding the argument; it is important to present your audience with current dialogue(s) against your claim. This section makes it easy for readers to infer, contingent upon an intelligent decision, to concede with your position versus being swayed by biased and weak arguments.
The essay should conclude by explaining the relevancy of the solution to the audience and identifying gaps in the research. Ideally, this should lead to a call to action for the next researcher, and I would like to identify the next steps needed.

F A core skill in any literature class is the ability to understand and identify basic literary elements in a text, analyze their significance, and write about them meaningfully and accurately in discussions, essays, and exams. For this week’s activity, begin by opening and reviewing the resource entitled “Guidelines for Reading and Understanding Literature,” linked in week 1. Once you’ve read through the resource, go to “Step III: What Literary Techniques are Used in this Work?” and choose any one of the major elements to discuss (choose from plot, character, setting, point-of-view, images and symbols, or style and language), then answer at least four of the bullet-points under your chosen element. (For example, if you choose “Character,” you’d go down to #2, Character, and here you’d answer any four of the six bullet points underneath that element). Your answers should apply to this week’s assigned reading, Gilgamesh. Research is not called for in this activity, but if outside sources are used, they must be documented correctly in MLA format (quotations, in-text citations, and works cited entries) and be valid academic sources.
