Assignment Three: Living Realities

Skeleton

A skeleton attempts to organize or arrange your specific research to specific main points of discussion. This assignment is like a highly detailed outline of your essay, but more importantly, the assignment is meant to serve as a template over how to engage in an academic conversation. On this form, you arrange and offer information such as main points, source context (summary), the integrated source (quotation), and commentary.

Definitions and Examples

Main Points: These parts of your essay are thesis statements and topic sentences. A topic sentence will incorporate your topic and effect or cause. For example, “Violence on television often leads to abnormal behavior in children.” In this sentence, “Violence on television” is the topic and “abnormal behavior’ is the effect. Here is another topic sentence example: The long detrimental effects of war in Afghanistan lead to poverty, especially where children are concerned.

Source Context: This context is a short summary statement about what the source says in connection to how you intend to use its valuable information. In conversation, this part highlights what they (source) say. For example, Wallace Bernstein writes about poverty related issues in regard to children in Afghanistan as well as war ravaged countries.

Integrated Source: This part of a source is the actual quotation or paraphrase you plan to use from the source to integrate into the essay. For example, Bernstein says, “Children in Afghanistan suffer from malnutrition or various other devastating health issues due to the lack of resources in the country” (34).

Commentary: This part offers the reader your own thought on the information you chose to integrate into your essay. What is your view? In conversation, this part highlights what you (writer) say. For example, The children that Bernstein refers to are suffering from poverty as a result of war. The lack of resources in the country results from not having a sustainable infrastructure in place. In most cases, roads and bridges in the country have been destroyed from the effect of war and supplies, like food and drinking water, cannot reach the people.

Altogether, the main point and source integration would sound like the following conversation:

The long detrimental effects of war in Afghanistan lead to poverty, especially where children are concerned. [Discuss a little; expand the conversation.] Wallace Bernstein writes about poverty related issues in regard to children in Afghanistan as well as war ravaged countries. Bernstein says, “Children in Afghanistan suffer from malnutrition or various other devastating health issues due to the lack of resources in the country” (34). The children that Bernstein refers to are suffering from poverty as a result of war. The lack of resources in the country results from not having a sustainable infrastructure in place. In most cases, roads and bridges in the country have been destroyed from the effect of war and supplies, like food and drinking water, cannot reach the people.
