Assignment 2: Polishing and Submitting Your Final Draft

You started by reading. You will end with reading. You wrote in the middle. You located, read, and considered a number of sources that reinforced your case study, and then you used your case study as a foundation for building your own persuasive essay. Now, you are almost ready to submit that essay but, before you do, read it aloud to yourself. There’s something about reading your own work aloud that helps you to detach from it and hear it like your readers will hear it. Make any last-minute revisions. There is also something about rereading after you have written that increases comprehension and expands critical thinking—both of which will help you hear and revise your own work.

Before you submit your Final Project, make sure that you follow these guidelines:

• Include a title page
• Double-space the body text
• Provide 5 full pages of body text
• Ensure you have utilized a minimum of 4 scholarly sources
• Use 1-inch margins all around. (For most word processors, this is the default setting.)
• Include a References page

Be sure to proofread for errors.

By Day 7

Submit your Final Project, which is a revised persuasive essay of at least 5 pages in length (excluding cover page and bibliography).
