I need Analytical Essay for Analysis of one Culture from your Family’s Ethnic Heritage - African (from South Africa)

GUIDELINES FOR FORMATTING & HOW TO APPROACH THIS PAPER

FORMAT: Format in any way you desire. If you wish to number your answers, fine, but don’t include the questions. That format was preferred for past students. I’ve also had a handwritten journal, as if from an immigrant from Finland, that followed the instructions & answered all the questions! I had a mailbag of letters I had to open & read in order, also fulfilling all the instructions. I had a travel log, illustrated & annotated ‘Ethnography Magazine’ article & fictional story that followed all instructions to greater & lesser degrees… YOU decide the format, but numbered answers work great, if that’s what you prefer. You’re after earning as many of the 100 points as you can, so simplest might be best. BUT- DO NOT JUST USE A BULLET POINT LIST OF TERMS. You will NOT get 100 points for that.

PAPER REQUIREMENTS: Use complete sentences & write at a college level. If you make writing errors, especially if I suggested it on Paper 1, the Writing Center can help you catch any common, fixable writing mistakes.

Please DOUBLE SPACE so there’s room for instructor notes. The paper needs to be at least 6-7 PAGES in font 12 or less. Do NOT use large headings/footings, wide margins & big spaces between paragraphs, sections, etc.

Grammar and writing: Evidence of plagiarism means paper will not be graded. A direct quote from any source, especially class generated material, MUST have “quotation marks”, (parenthetical citation) & the source in the bibliography. If you plagiarize, you lose 100 points. If you’re unsure what plagiarism is or how to cite direct quotes, CALL.

If I marked writing mistakes on paper #1, go to the Writing Center. Have them contact me that you used them. If this is done, no writing/grammar points will be subtracted from your paper.

Otherwise, I will manually subtract points from your final score as listed below.

1-10 writing, spelling or grammar mistakes NO points will be subtracted

11-25 mistakes -1 points

26-40 mistakes -2 points

More than 41 writing/spelling/grammar mistakes -3 points

Number of writing mistakes & point penalty will be included in your grade’s submitted comments

Use the GUIDELINES loaded on the Paper 2 instructions. Follow the hints in the indented comments.

This paper is worth 100 points. Do the easy points first.

Part I is 15 points. There’s NO Anthropology. It will set you up for the rest of the paper. Do that first.

Part IV is 22 easy points! It has little Anthropology in it. Do that second. You’re at 37 points.

Do the Appendix next, or 1. & 2. of Part V. They’re easy & fast. Build the Bib as you go. That’s 13

more points. You’re now at 50 points without doing much Anthropology yet.

Now do Anthropology, but do the parts you understand best or the easiest parts first. Part II is 24 points, so a quarter of the paper. Subsistence Strategies should be easy to figure out if you follow the hints in the Guidelines. Call if you need help. Name every single Subsistence Strategy that’s used for survival, even if it seems small. Name it! Define each one IN YOUR OWN WORDS. Give 2 examples from each. That should be 5-10 points if you follow the guideline hints. Technology is not hard. Look at pictures. Look at the tools. Follow the Guideline hints. That could be 4-8 Division of Labor seems to pose the biggest problems in the past. Do the best you can! That might be another 3-6 points. If you

even get half points on Part II you’ll be at 62 points. If you do better, you’ll have more.

Part III is 26 & the hardest, from what students said in the past. Again, go for easiest first. Social Organization is 8 points & pretty easy. Do it first! Religion may be the next easiest. Do it second. Even do the easiest parts of the hard sections first. Economic Sectors are not hard. Neither are external Political Controls on the Individual. Each is 2 points. Do those. Then try your best at the harder questions. Again, if you get just half right, you’re at 75 points! If you do better, you get more

points.

If you add the 5 points extra credit from a zoom study group, getting half the Anthropology parts right

still gets you 80 points. But I get it, you wanna do better. CALL if you hit a tangle.

This is what I’ve noticed in the past: Students wait too long to start working on this. I’ve had students call the night before the paper’s due to ask for help finding their ethnicity. You won’t get a good grade if you don’t start early enough. I’ve gotten papers turned in at the last minute that stop in the middle of a sentence. I have a super intro & everything else bullet points. I get papers without maps. It’s only 2 points, but they’re easy points! I get bullet points in Part IV which is 22 fairly easy points. Do those now! BONUS: a weekly assignment is on PART IV. If you’ve already done it, then you’ve also already done that weekly assignment!
