Homework is to develop an essay plan for your first essay on Change. There are handouts you can pick up in the bin outside my office. I will recap the questions you should ask here:
1. What is the subject of your paper?
2. Why do you want to write about this subject? Is your purpose to explain, explore, evaluate, describe a problem and propose a solution, or argue a point.
3. What audience will you write for? (Your audience determines the language and information you need from your sources. In this essay, you are a primary source.)
4. What question do you want your essay to answer?
5. What is the main writing strategy you think you will use? (Description, process or causal analysis, compare/contrast, problem/solution, classification. I mentioned that all discourse is argument, or persuasive.)
