Group Development

Your introductory paragraph will appear here. The introductory paragraph usually attempts to do three things: (1) Introduce the topic with some indication of its inherent interest or importance, and a clear definition of the boundaries of the subject area; (2) Indicate the structure and/or methodology of the essay, often with the major sections of the essay or its structural principle clearly stated; and (3) State the thesis of the essay, preferably in a single, arguable statement with a clear main clause. The standard pattern for an introductory paragraph follows the order of the tasks outlined above. Here is an outline of that pattern, written as if it were the first section of a formal outline of the entire essay. (A) The topic - its boundaries; and why it is interesting. (B) Structure and/or Methodology - the essay’s main sections (structure); why they come in that order (structural principle); and how the author plans to draw the necessary conclusions from the information available (methodology). (C) The Thesis Statement (usually a single sentence) - its premise (the general claim about the information available); and its conclusion (the consequences of the first claim). You should include at least one reference in the introductory paragraph.
