Begin writing your essay! As you do so, keep in mind that better essays are those that develop a strong line of argument, which is well structured and balances description and critical analysis. Good questions to ask yourself are:

• ‘Does this point relate to the main ideas I want to get across or does it distract the reader’?

‘Does the point I am making answer the question? Does it relate to the point before and after it, and if so how?

• ‘So what? What is the significance of this point? Why am I writing about it?’

• ‘How can I prove my point?’ ‘What sources can I use to support my argument?’

• ‘Do I agree with the perspective presented in the source that I am discussing? Why/why not?’

• ‘How does the perspective of the author that I am discussing compare/contrast with some of

• ‘How does the perspective of the author that I am discussing compare/contrast with some of
the others?’ ‘What is unique/interesting about what this author has to say?’

At a minimum, students are expected to:
• Answer all components of the question and follow the academic protocols for essay writing.
• Refer to AT LEAST 5 academic sources (two of which should fall outside the scope of the set
readings) in developing/supporting their argument.
• Ensure that their essays are logically structured, coherent and free of spelling and grammatical
errors.
• Ensure that essays are correctly referenced and free from plagiarism.

You are an urban planner for the City of San Antonio. You work closely with other urban planners, Jack and Jill. The work Jack and Jill have done in the last several city comprehensive plans has brought a great deal of praise. The San Antonio Express-News ran a series of stories about Jack and Jill’s work, all positive pieces. One day, Jack asks Jill, “Why don’t we try to make some money as planning consultants? We can advertise online with a website and there would be low overhead. The costs would be minimal and as long as we don’t contract with clients doing business with the city department, there shouldn’t be any ethical or legal issues to contend with.”
Jill gives Jack’s suggestion a few days of thought and a week later they have a website in place. Their firm provides, among other things, market analysis, community planning, business site selection, and geographic information systems.
Although their website doesn’t identify Jack and Jill by name, it does note that they have local government experience as urban planners. Moreover, the page contains their firm’s email address and telephone number.

Reflection Argumentative Paper Instructions – Please follow instructions 1-10 for Reflection Argumentative Paper
1. The paper should have a thesis, a main claim that the rest of the paper develops and supports, a unifying point that is argumentative which may or may not be controversial.
2. In writing the paper, avoid sources other than class texts, lectures, and discussions.
3. Discuss what a book “says” to you and how you responded in return.
4. Explain why it moves you, provokes you, or perplexes you-relating it to your own spiritual journey, if necessary, without turning the paper into an autobiography.
5. Ponder how key themes relate to one another and, if appropriate, how the text relates to its original context.
6. Avoid dwelling on a book’s significance for entire humanity or a large group of people, such as a particular race, gender, or class: rather focus on the effects it has had on you.
7. Do not write impressionistically; do not merely summarize the text; and do not recount others’ reflections on it, such as those in a preface or introduction. Put differently, do not just describe or analyze; also evaluate and take a position.
8. Think critically but civilly: use logic, eschewing fallacies, especially the ad hominem and straw man kind. You do not have to agree with an author’s claim; but before you disagree, be sure you have made good-faith efforts to understand his or her point of view.
9. A letter grade will be dropped for spelling, grammar, and diction. Written assignment will be graded based on content and writing competence.
10. The margin paper should be 1 inch from the top and bottom and from left and right; 5 to 8 pages; not counting cover page, and using Times New Roman 12-point font, double-spaced without gratuitous spacing or quotations.

(Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 2007).

This paper about Buffy in the series Buffy the vampire Slayer,
this is my paper important assignment. I will attach the sources that i need you to include in this assignment. also, i will attach also the proposal that includes the thesis that you should follow. please make it clear and easy to read by using simple word. you may use other resources as needs. You need to make argument between Buffy Responsibility for all seasons that’s mean as a child, as a sister after her mother death, and as a leader at the end

Instructions
Tips
-You may structure your essay in a variety of ways, using whatever methods necessary to fit your vision and topic. For example, you may group the portions of your argument into individual sections or chapters, giving each its own title. You may add appendices for graphics, tables, charts, or any other visual information. The only rule is that, if all the actual text of the essay were lined up, the paper must still be at least 7 full pages. In other words, you can’t use fancy formatting or structure to cheat the length.

-Make sure each body paragraph begins with a clear, strong, arguable claim. Follow it with brief and specific evidence. Analyze that evidence to show how it proves that your claim is correct. Connect those insights to the thesis (or subthesis, if you’re working in a subsection of the main argument). Rinse and repeat.

-Make sure Buffy is an integral part of your argument. You should not have a “Buffy section” somewhere that just shoehorns the series into an otherwise tangentially related essay. Your argument should not be about the series unless you’re doing a literary analysis sort of paper, but the series should connect to all of your major points and be present throughout the essay.

-You may lift passages from your research proposal and use them in your essay, so long as they make sense. For example, you might have a sentence in your first proposal paragraph that would go well in your essay’s introduction; that’s fine to use. However, this isn’t an invitation to lazily copy and paste in order to fill space. Your proposal cannot be the first page-and-a-half of your essay.

Format
The paper must be at least 7 full pages in standard MLA format: 1″ margins on all sides, Times New Roman 12-point font, double-spaced, with no extra paragraph spacing or extended headers/footers. The paper must include a works cited page that does not count toward the 7 page minimum.
