ASHLEY CLAIRE

For this assignment, you need to revise your thesis statement. Take into account advice from last week's discussion. Be sure that you take a firm stance and that you can identify three arguments that an opponent might use to critique your position. Your thesis should be one sentence and succinctly but eloquently state your position. 

In addition, you should find four sources from the Argosy Library and construct an annotated bibliography. Your citations should be formatted correctly, in APA style. You can access the library in the Course Home section under Academic Resources. You should have four sources that look like this example from your reading:

Caton, S. C. (2009). The poetic construction of the self. Anthropological Quarterly, 58(4), 141–148.

Note that it does not have to be bolded -- this is just my example. Be sure to watch the movie that I made, which you can find in the course announcements and your email, which will help you format your work.

Responses to your classmates should focus on responding to the content of their posts, not a volleying back and forth of personal experience related to the topic. Please keep comments focused on giving your classmate feedback on his or her thesis, reference and sources. Ask yourselves the following questions both before you post your own information and as you help your classmates:

Is the thesis narrowed?

Is the thesis worded in clear and correct grammar?

Do the sources seem relevant to the thesis?

Are the sources formatted correctly? 

Is the annotation written so that it seems to match the source?

Are the sources university-level sources?

Comments in this vein are preferred and you can also offer suggestions if you have any. As always, if you have any questions for me, do not hesitate to ask.

Happy discussing!
