Final publish with Dear Reader Letter
In your final publish of your 1500-1800 word final paper, you will choose one argumentative strategy and investigate how that strategy is at work in two texts: (1) the text you wrote about for your midterm and (2) a second text of your choice that was assigned in the second half of the semester.
Remember you must write about TWO texts total in relation to ONE argumentative strategy for justice. You must write about the same text from your midterm major publish and ONE from the second half of the semester.
Your final paper’s thesis statement should (1) make a claim about any significant connections and/or differences between the authors’ use of the chosen strategy in their specific texts, and (2) assert whether or not a specific but shared understanding of justice emerges from your analysis of that chosen strategy in both texts. The body of your paper will then show how that strategy is at work in the texts you chose, and the consequences of that strategy for your understanding of justice across two different contexts. As you did in the midterm, you should unpack how the text is written, connecting the “writerly choices” in the text (i.e., evidence, structure, language, etc) to the specific situation in which the text emerges (i.e., author, target audience, sociohistorical context, communicative tools).
In addition, you must include a 300-400 word “Dear Reader Letter.” In this letter, you should address your instructors and reflect on your own writerly decisions during this semester-long process to publish your final paper. Describe what lessons you learned about your own writing process by taking 10 weeks to publish this final paper. In doing so, discuss (1) why you chose the strategy you focused on in the final paper and why it was the same or a different strategy from your midterm paper, and (2) what writerly choices from 1-2 other texts in our course that you did not write about in the midterm or final influenced your writing of the final paper. To be clear, you must write about the same text from your midterm, but you can choose to write about a different argumentative strategy as long as you address the rationale for that choice in your “Dear Reader Letter.”
FINAL publish REQUIREMENTS
● Late submissions will be marked down one full letter grade for each day late. No submissions will be accepted after 48 hours of deadline. The final paper must be submitted in order to pass the course.
● Final papers must be 1500-1800 words typed plus a 300-400 “Dear Reader Letter,” double-spaced, with 12-point font and 1-inch margins, and must follow MLA format. (No abstract is required for the final paper as you will be including the “Dear Reader Letter” instead.)
● Your final publish should be carefully revised based on feedback from peer review and any other ENGL 1302-endorsed sources of support you consult (i.e., professor, Writing Center, tutors). You may include a section that acknowledges any support you have received but it is not required.
● On the cover page, include a creative title for your paper, followed by your name, your Instructor’s name and your section number. At the top of each page following the cover page, insert a page header and page numbers. Include a References page at the end listing all sources cited in the body of your paper.
● Type a word count at the end of the paper. Remember: the word count does not include your references page, title page, or “Dear Reader Letter.”
TIPS FOR WRITING A SUCCESSFUL FINAL PAPER
1. As in the midterm major publish, you should imagine the primary reader of your final papers as your peers in ENGL 1302, thus you can assume that your primary readers will have knowledge of counterhegemonic U.S. history, and will know specifics about the assigned readings. Your goal, then, is to focus on educating your readers about: (1) your definition and analysis of your chosen argumentative strategy by presenting specific examples and explaining their significance; and (2) the overarching definition of justice that you argue is suggested in your chosen readings. Please feel free to consult the Key Term Guide on Blackboard.
2. Use only appropriate outside sources and ENGL 1302 course materials (lecture/discussion notes and assigned texts) to write your paper. Please use MLA format to properly cite evidence. You may refer to the Writing Center in the Library for help with MLA guidelines.
3. Be sure to review the grading rubric for this final publish. Instructors will be evaluating your paper according to that rubric. Provide readers with well-chosen details, examples, and analysis to develop your thesis. Be sure to proofread for mechanical errors.
