Hi, i have completed most part of this article. Something I need to do is rewriting some of these content. Most importantly, i need to quote quotation from the sources and add some self thinking in it. The sources I put in this article are not that related to what I write. I need someone can write my essay based on the sources or find other sources to rewrite the article. Most immportantly, the sources should be authoritive . Its better to find them in google scholar. The reason for this article is not passing is it doesn’t have quotations from these links.
Now that you have established a foundational knowledge of a topic/problem, it is time to expand your thinking into a full-length essay. Your first draft should be 1200 words – this include notes and in-text citations but not your bibliography. At a minimum, you should be able to answer “yes” to the following question: Does my draft examine the concrete effects (can I point to actual people, places and things?) of a specific problem that I am locating within an analysis of a specific policy/law/court ruling/event and its effects?
This draft will also require you to include two pieces of evidence, or “artifacts,” that will a) add a multi-modal component to your project (that is, a graphic or visual component – statistics, graphs, photographs, etc.) and b) help demonstrate the centrality of your problem to both the historical past and present. Try to describe how your historical “artifact” resides in the past and summarize how it speaks to your contemporary evidence.
Below is a list of required elements for the 1200-word draft:
- Identify and explain a significant and precisely defined contemporary cultural, political, and/or social problem related to the themes of our core text.
- Analyze the relevant history & causes of the precise problem you are studying. Remember that the background or context of the problem is important and does not have to be a direct cause in order for you to consider it. Also remember that “history” can be recent — you might locate the emergence of a specific problem within the last 3-5 years.
- Demonstrate knowledge of, integrate, and evaluate at least FOUR credible secondary sources relevant to your problem/topic. Evaluation can include finding assumptions, omissions, bias, or logical errors. You are required to show how the sources are RELATED to one another and how they INTERACT. Locate and identify debates and discussions among experts.
- Provide vivid description and analysis of TWO artifacts (historical documents, charts, photographs, film clips, news footage, etc.), one that provides evidence of the problem in the present and one that provides evidence of the problem in the past. Discuss how the problem and consideration of the problem has transformed, and been transformed, over time.
- Consider including links to videos or films for which you should note minute & second mark where you want your viewer to notice something you are “quoting.” The multi-modal (multi-media) evidence of the problem should not be simply added after you are done writing your essay, but should work with your writing as a way to build your argument about the urgency and relevance of your problem.
- MLA formatted, non-annotated bibliography of the sources you reference in your paper. These should, at a minimum, include the artifacts from the present, the artifact from the past, and the four scholarly secondary sources. Feel free to add footnotes. When in doubt, cite the source.
This submission should be a thoughtful revision of your first draft. I expect to see improvements in the clarity of the prose, the appropriateness of sources, the dexterity of your argument, and in the use/incorporation of multi-media elements. You should demonstrate a strong knowledge of a political/social/cultural/economic problem and the conversations and debates surrounding that problem (both present and past). You should make a case for the problem’s relevance and urgency today, and you should be able to explain the historical conditions that made (and continue to make) the problem a problem.
