Thursday, January 26, Day 4
(Please remember: If you have not registered, do it ASAP!)
Today we're talking about outlines & thesis statements--two very big deals. You'll revise the organization of your diagnostic essays based on what we learn today.
1. Outlines
2. Thesis Statements
3. Revising Diagnostics
Your outlines should be based on the Standard Outline Format. This is in your shared Dropbox folder in the Diagnostics folder. Make an outline for what your diagnostic essay could potentially be--you do not have to create an outline of your current diagnostic, but for the improved version.
Remember the 3 traits of a strong thesis statement:
1. explainable/discussable
2. arguable
3. one-sided
Outlines due Monday, January 30 at 11:59 p.m.
I'll have comments on your Reflections before class on Tuesday 1-31.
