In Essay #2, write an essay that makes a thesis-based argument about education. Your essay must respond specifically to at least one of the assigned articles from Ch. 14. You will choose the audience for your essay, but remember: your job is to "enter the conversation" about education begun by your sources.Assigned articles from Ch. 14:"Who Are You and What Are You Doing Here? A Word to the Incoming Class." by Mark Edmundson"why American Schools Are Even More Unequal Than We Thought" by Susan DynarskiYour essay should include all of the following features:A precise thesis, or main claimA clearly defined audienceDirect quotations or paraphrases of at least 1 article from Ch. 14 of From Inquiry to Academic WritingYour instructor may provide more specific instructions for this assignment -- check the Announcements for any updates or changes.GUIDELINES FOR ESSAY #2Length: approximately 800-1,000 wordsStyle/Format: This, as all essays in EN106, should be formatted in a standard scholarly format. (Most students follow MLA or APA guidelines, which are outlined in Easy Writer.) No matter what format you follow, be sure to do the following:Use 12 point, Times New Roman font, double-spaced.Use 1-inch margins top, bottom, and sides.Although no cover page is needed, you should include your name, my name, the course number/title, and date at the upper left-hand corner of the manuscript.References: Your essay must use at least one source -- the article from Ch. 14 that has begun the conversation. Most likely, you will also refer to additional outside sources. For each source you cite or reference in your essay, include in-text citations, using MLA or APA guidelines.File format: Please submit your essay as a .doc, .docx, or .pdf file. These formats are available in most word processors, including Google Docs and Open Office, and will ensure that your instructor is able to comment on your work.Works Cited/References: Please create an appropriate bibliography that lists each source you cite or reference in your essay. Use MLA or APA guidelines for your bibliography.Titles: Include a descriptive title at the beginning of your essay that tips your readers off to your thesis. Do not format your title with quotation marks, boldface, underlining or italics. Quotation marks or underlining are only appropriate if the title borrows words from another source.Use of essays for future courses: Please understand that your essay may be used— anonymously—as a sample for future EN106 students and instructors unless you expressly request that it not be used. Your work, of course, will only be used for educational purposes.Assessment: See the Grading and Assessment content item under Course Information.few seconds ago
