Paper Instructions:
You will begin the same way you did in Paper 1: Identify a problem that addressed in 13th or How Does It Feel to Be A Problem. Once again, both these texts present many different problems – choose one that you find compelling, relevant, and that you think the text addresses in a surprising, engaging, troubling, or creative way.
In your paper:
1) Explain and analyze how the text addresses that problem. Use specific quotations and/or examples from the text to support your claims.
2) How might you address that problem? Describe, explain, and analyze. Be specific.
Other requirements:
Secondary source: Integrate at least one secondary source from other material covered in the course. For this component of the assignment, you should not do outside research. Select, for example, one of the assigned essays by Young, Tatum, Kirk and Okazawa-Rey, Blanda, Moro, Kushner, our guest speakers, or any other resources provided on D2L.
Title: A descriptive title that reflects the main point of your paper.
Introduction: An engaging introduction that addresses the assignment and contains a clear and concise thesis statement.
Body: Organized, coherent body paragraphs organized around a single claim that supported by observations and analysis of meaningful your primary and secondary sources. All together, these body paragraphs should prove your thesis statement.
