Address the following essay question in a paper of 1,000 words. Be sure to include a works cited page with correct MLA citations. Essays must be typed, double-spaced, in Times New Roman Font size 12, with your name, my name, course info, and the date in the upper left hand corner of <\/span>page one<\/em>. Your last name and the page number should be on the top right hand corner of <\/span>each page<\/em>. See the OWL Purdue site for how to properly cite films and television shows should you choose to write on one.<\/p>\n

*You <\/span>must<\/strong><\/em> <\/span>underline your thesis statement.<\/p>\n

*The number of secondary sources you make use of is up to you. That said, an essay that is totally made up of unsupported opinion is not a sound strategy.<\/p>\n

*Unlike essay #1, make sure that this essay does not make use of the first person voice. You want to avoid the “I” voice and have the essay read as an objective assessment. Along with this, remember to avoid referring to the reader as “you”; it’s too conversational in tone.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Essay Prompt: <\/span><\/span><\/strong>Science fiction is marked by how it represents our dual relationship of fear and awe with the science of our time. Choose a work of science fiction (book, film, television series, etc) and analyze the real world science that it explores. What does the work say about the science in question?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Hey everyone,<\/p>\n

  Just wanted to offer more detail and examples of the above essay prompt. When the prompt asks what the work says about the science in question, it means you want to consider how the film portrays the real world science. Does it portray it as a positive to mankind, a negative, something in between? If the film is highlighting our relationship with an exaggerated real world science, what commentary is it offering on that relationship? For example, consider if someone is writing about <\/span><\/span>Jurassic Park <\/span><\/i>and the real world science of cloning. They might conclude that the film shows the dangers of cloning and highlights how we shouldn\u2019t mettle in certain areas of genetic science. That\u2019s the kind of text analysis you\u2019ll want to do with whatever science you are focusing on. Here’s a sample outline if you were to take on <\/span>Jurassic Park:<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Intro – establish that you’re focusing on the real world science of cloning, as seen in <\/span>Jurassic Park<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Main Body #1 – Cloning<\/span><\/p>\n

     – what is it? (using sources as needed)<\/span><\/p>\n

     – how does it work? (using <\/span>sources as needed)<\/p>\n

Main Body #2 – Cloning and <\/span>Jurassic Park<\/em><\/p>\n

     – what does the movie say about cloning?<\/p>\n

          – it’s dangerous, we can’t control it, we shouldn’t play God, and so on (using sources, like the film, as needed)<\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/p>\n
