CLASS #21: Monday & Wednesday, November 30, 2016: FAMILY CONFERENCE REQUIREMENTS

PHASE ONE OF FINAL PAPER DUE @ Family Conference, Wednesday, December 7, 2016
(final paper and portfolio due at 11:59pm, Monday, December 12th) 

Come to class next week with the following prepared:

Conference Assignment: Please have the following information ready for submission during our conferences. All components must be typed and professionally presented:

1. Working Outline
2. Working Thesis
3. Annotated Bibliography 

1. The working outline is a very important first step that serves as a guide for your entire paper. Follow any form you feel most comfortable with (See Hacker for a variety of outlining methods if confused). The outline should give me an idea of how you plan your paper…point by point at least…example by example if you wish. There should be a bullet-ed component for each paragraph. Keep in mind that this is the mode by which you will also present your research. Remember that good development "systematically fulfills the reader's expectation."


2. Student will present a working thesis. The expectation is that this will allow us to work together in making sure the paper is on the right track. Thesis should evince the components of thesis writing discussed in class today.

The thesis for this paper should be both complex and clear.

Make sure to move through a logical progression with your ideas.

3. Annotated Bibliography: Should provide insight on the sources you plan to use. Where does information exist? What types of sources have been prevalent? Why would you use (or not use) the sources you've collected. To jog your memory...Here are some examples.
