ENGL101 Week 6 Discussion

A conclusion summarizes the most important points of the essay. Conclusions are also the last opportunity for writers to make their points to their readers. They are, therefore, an essential component of the essay. Too often, inexperienced writers write weak conclusions which weakens their essay. Spend some time crafting a strong conclusion.

· Do not start the conclusion with In conclusion.

· Review the evidence for the topic you chose in the Week 3 Discussions.

· The Electoral College in the US

· Learning to Speak another Language

· Going to an Online University

· Immigration

· Art and Artists

· Owning a Home

· The Director's Role in Filmmaking

· Repairing a Car Engine

· The Environment

· Music

· Add 2-3 sentences of the best, most interesting highlights. Rewrite the evidence in new ways so the reader does not recognize them from the body of the essay.

· Add a concluding sentence that restates your thesis statement. Remember the reader should not recognize it as your thesis statement. Make significant changes to the words and word order of the original thesis statement.

· Post your conclusion to this discussion.

· Critique the introductions of your peers.

Specific Instructions: Your initial post should be submitted by 11:59 p.m., ET, on Thursday to be eligible to receive (but not guaranteed) all the points for the initial post. Please respond to at least 2 other students. Responses in ENGL101 are critiques. In other words, it is not enough to simply agree with a point or with the content; rather, you are to pinpoint what works in the structure, word choice, and flow of the writing. You can also point out what doesn't work and offer suggestions for change or improvement.
