A good paper is more than the sum of its parts, but the parts matter. Here’s a list of some things to check for before turning in your paper:

· There is an introduction.

· The introduction clearly states the thesis of your paper—that is, the introduction says what your ultimate answer to the paper’s question will be.

· The introduction clearly states what the outline of your paper will be.

· You thoroughly explain the relevant parts of the philosophers you’re talking about.

· The explanation of the philosophers is written such that someone who had not read them could understand it.

· There’s a clear distinction between the parts of your paper where you’re explaining what a philosopher said and where you’re interpreting or evaluating what they said.

· You clearly state your own answer to the question (or questions) of the paper.

· You give reasons for why your answer is correct, and why it’s better than the alternative. These reasons would make sense to any reasonable person who read them.

· There are appropriate quotes from the article used (about one per page is good).

· All quotes are properly cited with author and page in parentheses.

· There’s a Work Cited section at the end of your paper with an entry for each person your quote, including: Author, Title, Publisher / Journal name, Year.

· Each paragraph discusses only one idea.

· Transitions between paragraphs make sense.

· The final draft was spell-checked / grammar-checked.
