Organization of Essay: Your essay must have a thesis, topic sentences, and well organized, well supported paragraphs. Use both summary and direct quotation for support.
Documentation: Proper documentation is a major goal
Your essay must document all sources with care.
Minimum Number of Sources: You must use a minimum of seven sources from seven different authors in your completed essay. These sources are to be clearly indicated in the body of the paper by using MLA in-text citations and on the works cited page.
Unacceptable Sources: General sources, such as a general encyclopedia (like Wikipedia) or popular magazine, are of no value and will not count toward the seven required sources.
Incorporation of Sources: You must carefully not only evaluate your sources, you must also incorporate sources into your research project’s essay. In other words, your work must show not only that you can gather quotations and summarize facts, but it must also show that you are able to think critically about the material you have read.
Remember: the bulk of your essay will comprise support from documented sources, but it is up to you to put those ideas in your own words, to choose direct quotations with care, decide when to quote directly and when to provide summary as support, and to tie the essay together with a precise, thoughtful thesis, topic sentences, and transitions.
Good research papers will use both summary and direct quotation for support, with both types of support clearly documented.
Note Well: All facts taken from sources, regardless of whether they are presented in your own words or as direct quotations, must be properly documented.
Here is Your Topic:
Barbara Kingsolver makes the point that with the success of the women’s movement came the demise of ‘the family table’; it was no longer what it was in the 1940s and 1950s. She claims that something essential has been lost between then and now. Her point is that with the ‘liberation’ of women as it is often called, the evening meal and how we eat, as a communal event everyone counted on to bond, was no more, or at least fundamentally changed. Do you agree or disagree or disagree with her? First you must do some research to answer the question.
