Grading:<\/u><\/p>\n

Your paper will be graded holistically based on the principles of strong writing that we discussed in class. When assigning your grade, I will consider the following, in order of importance:<\/p>\n

\u00b7      <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Argument<\/u><\/p>\n

o   <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Do you have a clear thesis statement? (\u201cIn this paper I argue that\u2026.\u201d)<\/p>\n

o   <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Do you support your claims with high-quality, relevant evidence?<\/p>\n

o   <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Does your argumentation flow naturally and logically?<\/p>\n

o   <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Do the component parts of your argument contribute to the larger whole?<\/p>\n

o   <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Is your argument more <\/span>analytical<\/i> <\/span>than <\/span>descriptive<\/i>?<\/p>\n

\u00b7      <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Organization<\/u><\/p>\n

o   <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Does your paper begin with an introduction that summarizes your full argument, including all component parts?<\/p>\n

o   <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Does each paragraph have a topic sentence?<\/p>\n

o   <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Does each paragraph make exactly one point? (It\u2019s okay for a point to take more than one paragraph to make!)<\/p>\n

o   <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Are you generous with signposting? (\u201cIn the next section I will\u2026\u201d \u201cThere are three reasons that xyz. First, \u2026.\u201d)<\/p>\n

o   <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Does your paper have a conclusion that restates and summarizes your argument?<\/p>\n

\u00b7      <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Language<\/u><\/p>\n

o   <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Are you using words you know and using them correctly?<\/p>\n

o   <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Did you read your paper out loud to make sure your sentences flow naturally?<\/p>\n

o   <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Is your writing clear and concise?<\/p>\n

o   <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Do you use appropriate writing mechanics? (e.g., spelling, punctuation, grammar)<\/p>\n

\u00b7      <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Polish<\/u><\/p>\n

o   <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Do you follow the page count?<\/p>\n

o   <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Are you using a 12-point, professional font?<\/p>\n

o   <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Is your name on it?<\/p>\n

o   <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Does your paper have a title?<\/p>\n

o   <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Do you have a Works Cited page that is in a consistent format and alphabetized?<\/span> i attached the research paper outline I created and annotated biblioagraphy. Here are the notes I received on them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
\n

Good start! A few notes on your sources:<\/p>\n

You can use the Dalton-Hoffman piece to look for sources, but that’s not a scholarly source that you should rely on. It looks like that’s a student’s seminar paper. So it might be interesting or useful, but you should find peer-reviewed scholarly sources instead.<\/p>\n

Without that one, you have four scholarly sources. I think the <\/span>Journal of Democracy<\/em> *maybe* counts as political science, but it would be great if you could find at least one, ideally two, additional political science sources.<\/p>\n

In terms of places to start looking: search Presidential Studies Quarterly, <\/span><\/em>and\/or use the Suggested Readings\/references lists from the Howell chapter on media.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/th>\n
<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/td>\n\n

Good outline. See comment about the thesis statement, but I think these are good subpoints.<\/p>\n

Make sure you’re being specific. For example when you set up the section on “how social media has contributed to deepening political divides,” your thesis for that sub-section should be something clear and specific like “social media contributes to polarization through echo chambers.” for example. Just make sure not to leave your reader guessing, and don’t leave any blanks for the reader to fill in.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
