For exam 007127, Writing Skills:  A Personal Narrative, you are asked to write a personal essay, based solely on your first-hand personal experience(s), told from the first-person point of view (using the pronoun "I"), meeting the length requirement of between 750 and 2500 words.  This essay should not require or contain any type of research; it should be told from thoughts and memories.

In short, this essay should be about you and your experience(s).

This assignment is the SAME as exam 007868, The Writing Skills Writing Assignment, so there are multiple resources available to you, many of which are included on our Symbaloo page for this assignment:  http://www.symbaloo.com/mix/ws-apersonalnarrative.

A Research Project

2

While the author doesn’t need to hide his personal opinion,

he must be sure to use appropriate and accurate research to

support his or her ideas. Unlike the personal narrative, the

research project requires

more

than the thoughts, feelings,

ideas, and personal input of the author.

The essay that you create should clearly state your ideas and

opinions, and show the reasoning behind your opinions, as

well as identify the ideas you’ve located to back your opinions

through research. These ideas will work together to ultimately

show your learned expertise and your authority to write on

your chosen topic.

Remember that using others’ opinions or ideas in your own

words without giving the original author credit isn’t proper,

even if you agree with them or feel that they best explain your

own thoughts and feelings. When you include information

obtained from research, you’re obligated to cite that information,

giving full and deserved credit to the original author. Always

remember that research should support your opinion and/or

viewpoint; you should ensure that your ideas and opinions (not

your researched information) are the main focus of your essay.

YOUR OPTIONS

There are two distinct topic options for this particular assign-

ment. While each of these options has specific requirements

and expectations, there is also a great deal of freedom

included with each. Because your essay is being created based

on your opinions/ideas and research, no two completed essays

will be exactly alike.

Option 1: Personal Take

on Current Issues

Choose a current issue in local, national, or international news.

Write an editorial piece explaining the issue and offering your

opinions and any solutions you can think of that may appl
