For example, you could express how the paragraph that follows is similar in some way or perhaps more important in some way; you could identify how the paragraph that comes next is more controversial or more surprising, etc. In short, get readers to connect what they just read to where you\u2019re going in the next paragraph.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"margin: 12px 0px; padding-left: 80px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><strong style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><a style=\"cursor: auto;\" data-id=\"4489902\" data-api-returntype=\"File\" data-api-endpoint=\"https:\/\/peralta.instructure.com\/api\/v1\/users\/19781\/files\/4489902\"><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 6px 0px; font-size: 1.5em; line-height: 1.5; cursor: auto;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Conclusion paragraph thesis restatement<\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"margin: 12px 0px; padding-left: 80px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><strong style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><a style=\"cursor: auto;\" data-id=\"4489902\" data-api-returntype=\"File\" data-api-endpoint=\"https:\/\/peralta.instructure.com\/api\/v1\/users\/19781\/files\/4489902\"><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul style=\"margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-left: 25px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<li style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">The first sentence of your conclusion paragraph restates your thesis statement, not as something that needs to be proved but as something that has been proven.<\/span><strong style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><a style=\"cursor: auto;\" data-id=\"4489902\" data-api-returntype=\"File\" data-api-endpoint=\"https:\/\/peralta.instructure.com\/api\/v1\/users\/19781\/files\/4489902\"><\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 6px 0px; font-size: 1.5em; line-height: 1.5; cursor: auto;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Conclusion paragraph summary<\/span><strong style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><a style=\"cursor: auto;\" data-id=\"4489902\" data-api-returntype=\"File\" data-api-endpoint=\"https:\/\/peralta.instructure.com\/api\/v1\/users\/19781\/files\/4489902\"><\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul style=\"margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-left: 25px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<li style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Following your restated thesis statement (which needs to be one sentence long), summarize your argument and the main points that support it to help readers recognize the validity of your proven thesis statement.&nbsp;<\/span><strong style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><a style=\"cursor: auto;\" data-id=\"4489902\" data-api-returntype=\"File\" data-api-endpoint=\"https:\/\/peralta.instructure.com\/api\/v1\/users\/19781\/files\/4489902\"><\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 6px 0px; font-size: 1.5em; line-height: 1.5; cursor: auto;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Conclusion paragraph significance<\/span><strong style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><a style=\"cursor: auto;\" data-id=\"4489902\" data-api-returntype=\"File\" data-api-endpoint=\"https:\/\/peralta.instructure.com\/api\/v1\/users\/19781\/files\/4489902\"><\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul style=\"margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-left: 25px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<li style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Once you\u2019ve summarized your argument\u2019s main points to justify your thesis statement, express how your argument matters even more by connecting it to other relevant arguments; in short, show what consequences and wider implications derive from your essay\u2019s main argument: if you\u2019re right, what do those consequences reveal about us and our world? What new pathways now stand before us? How does the thesis you just proved change you or change others, perhaps in a profound way? Who else is impacted by this knowledge or reality? Predict what may happen in the future because of this knowledge and how that prediction may represent a much bigger argument or thesis we need to consider now going forward.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"margin: 12px 0px; padding-left: 80px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><strong style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><a style=\"cursor: auto;\" data-id=\"4489902\" data-api-returntype=\"File\" data-api-endpoint=\"https:\/\/peralta.instructure.com\/api\/v1\/users\/19781\/files\/4489902\"><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 6px 0px; font-size: 1.5em; line-height: 1.5; cursor: auto;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Sentence strength<\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"margin: 12px 0px; padding-left: 80px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><strong style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><a style=\"cursor: auto;\" data-id=\"4489902\" data-api-returntype=\"File\" data-api-endpoint=\"https:\/\/peralta.instructure.com\/api\/v1\/users\/19781\/files\/4489902\"><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul style=\"margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-left: 25px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<li style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">This standard assesses how well you use sentence-combining techniques to express your ideas, avoiding run-on sentences and redundant writing in the process. Readers should be able to read your ideas without getting distracted by grammar mistakes and redundancy. Ideally, you accurately incorporate a mix of various sentence-combining techniques throughout your writing (FANBOYS, semicolons, and subordination).<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"margin: 12px 0px; padding-left: 80px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><strong style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><a style=\"cursor: auto;\" data-id=\"4489902\" data-api-returntype=\"File\" data-api-endpoint=\"https:\/\/peralta.instructure.com\/api\/v1\/users\/19781\/files\/4489902\"><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 6px 0px; font-size: 1.5em; line-height: 1.5; cursor: auto;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">MLA formatting<\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"margin: 12px 0px; padding-left: 80px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><strong style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><a style=\"cursor: auto;\" data-id=\"4489902\" data-api-returntype=\"File\" data-api-endpoint=\"https:\/\/peralta.instructure.com\/api\/v1\/users\/19781\/files\/4489902\"><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul style=\"margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-left: 25px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<li style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">For non-research paper submissions, MLA formatting still applies: you\u2019ll want to double-space your submission, left-align it, and use appropriate headers (your name, our course name, submission date), Times New Roman font, and page numbers. The more challenging part of this standard is properly applying MLA formatting when you incorporate quotes or paraphrase your sources. Ensure you cite all of the sources you incorporate and accurately add them to a Works Cited page. A strong assessment here indicates that readers have no problem finding where your sources come from because every quote or paraphrase is cited, and every citation is paired with a properly-formatted Works Cited entry. Ensure that each source that appears in your Works Cited page is used and cited in your essay; if it isn\u2019t, remove it from your Works Cited page.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"margin: 12px 0px; padding-left: 80px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><strong style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><a style=\"cursor: auto;\" data-id=\"4489902\" data-api-returntype=\"File\" data-api-endpoint=\"https:\/\/peralta.instructure.com\/api\/v1\/users\/19781\/files\/4489902\"><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 6px 0px; font-size: 1.5em; line-height: 1.5; cursor: auto;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Quality of sources (only for research papers)<\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"margin: 12px 0px; padding-left: 80px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><strong style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><a style=\"cursor: auto;\" data-id=\"4489902\" data-api-returntype=\"File\" data-api-endpoint=\"https:\/\/peralta.instructure.com\/api\/v1\/users\/19781\/files\/4489902\"><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul style=\"margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-left: 25px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<li style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">This standard assesses how well you\u2019ve researched your topic.
