Case Assignment

For this assignment, you will write an organized and well-supported Academic Essay using three or more points of analysis. Select a topic that will allow you to demonstrate your interest and knowledge of a specific area. A topic that is meaningful to you will encourage the development of ideas.

A well-organized essay has a beginning, a middle, and an end. The beginning, or introduction, should include an opening sentence to grab your reader’s attention. Follow the opening sentence with a brief background on the topic or situation. The last sentence of the introduction is the thesis statement or the main point of the essay.

A well-supported essay includes supporting points, details, and examples. For this essay, you must decide the best way to organize the body of the paper. Each body paragraph must support (explain) your thesis using specific details and examples. Each body paragraph must begin with a topic sentence that states the main point of the paragraph.

The conclusion typically summarizes the main points of the essay and/or closes with a lasting impression that connects the reader to their world.

Be sure to proofread your essay and edit for proper grammar, punctuation, diction (word choice), and spelling, as errors in sentence skills will lower a final grade.

Papers must be double-spaced in Times or Times New Roman font (12 cpi) with standard one-inch margins. 

The first person "I" is not used in a formal essay.

No secondary sources are to be used in writing this first paper; it is to be entirely written based on one's point of view and supported with body points and details.
