This is part of 2: 10274134

For the link to the article that was chosen;

Part 1:

Essay 1: Thesis Statement Review (3-4 sentences)

For this assignment, post a brief summary of the article you have chosen to respond to for the first essay and your thesis statement. You may also want to provide a brief explanation about your thesis if you have chosen to focus on only one specific point in the article you have selected.

Part 2: (1-2 sentences)

Once part 1 is done, I will add 2 classmates discussion post that you can respond to.

Part 3: Very Brief Outline

For this assignment, write up a bullet point list of the main ideas from your essay. Each bullet point should represent no more than a full paragraph, but you may want to break your ideas down even further and list two or three points from each paragraph. Only one idea per paragraph is required. As such, if your essay is going to be seven paragraphs long, you should have seven bullet points.

Then, between each bullet point, place a word or words that clearly explains the connection between the ideas. For example, I might have the following two ideas listed on my brief outline:

• The political climate in America today is deeply divided.
• Many of society’s biggest problems are not being solved.

Each of these points represents a full paragraph in my essay. As such, I will have several other sentences in my paragraphs explaining each point. However, the topic of each paragraph is summarized by the idea presented. But if you really think about it, it isn’t entirely clear how I have decided that these two ideas are related. So instead of just a list of several bullet points, also include a word in between each of the ideas that clearly explains how these ideas are related. For example:

• The political climate in America today is deeply divided.
• As a result
• Many of society’s biggest problems are not being solved.

Making clear the logical connections between your ideas is called developing your line of reasoning, and it is one of the three central things your essay will be graded on.

Some of the words you can include between your bullet points are conjunctions. The most common are the coordinating conjunctions (FANBOYS, for those who remember that acronym): For, And, Nor, But, Or, Yet, So. However, there are also quite a few others. The conjunctive adverbs do exactly the same thing as the coordinating conjunctions, but they “sound” a lot “smarter.” I often use the acronym HOTSHOTCAT to help my students remember some of them: However, Otherwise, Therefore, Hence, On the other hand, Thus, Consequently, As a result, Then. Obviously (there’s another one!), there are a lot of these conjunctive adverbs and they can consist of more than one word. Here’s

, but there are many, many more. You don’t have to watch it, but a decent (and relatively short) video on this topic is below:

Part 4: 1-2 sentences

Once part 3 is complete, I will add classmates discussion post that you can respond to.

This AP Language & Composition synthesis essay should argue a clear position on the value of civil disobedience today while recognizing both its power and its risks, using evidence from at least three sources that are woven together rather than discussed separately. It should connect historical examples like the Underground Railroad or womens suffrage with modern cases such as student walkouts or public concern over political violence to show how civil disobedience can prompt reform when it exposes injustice but lose support when it appears disruptive or unsafe. Each piece of evidence should be explained in terms of how it shapes public perception, challenges government legitimacy, or pressures authorities to respond. The paragraph should stay analytical, focused on cause and effect, and maintain a formal academic tone with clear citations and logical reasoning.

Writing Quiz #2: Consider and write briefly about the most recent spectacle you participated in or witnessed.

Directions:

1. Below is a list of spectacle types.
2. Select 1 type of spectacle below.
3. Name the specific spectacle and describe briefly how it manifests (appears).
4. Why is this spectacle problematic? Keep in mind problematic does not mean bad or wrong. (See #6 below)
5. 200-250 words

Types of Spectacle

1. Social Media:
2. The curated online persona on platforms like Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, etc. where individuals present an idealized version of their lives through carefully crafted photos and posts, is a prime example of the spectacle.
3. News Media:
4. Sensationalized headlines, clickbait articles, and the focus on dramatic events over nuanced reporting often create a spectacle out of news, prioritizing entertainment value over in-depth analysis.
5. Celebrity Culture:
6. The constant media coverage of celebrity lives, scandals, and relationships, often presented as a form of entertainment, contributes to a culture of obsession with celebrity personas.
7. Commercial Advertising:
8. The constant bombardment of advertisements across various media platforms, designed to create desire and a sense of need for products, even if they are not essential.
9. Large-Scale Events:
10. Events like the Olympics, major music festivals, and sporting championships, where the focus is on the spectacle and entertainment value rather than the athletic competition itself.
11. Why is the chosen example considered problematic? According to Debord, the “spectacle” alienates people from their own lives by replacing real experiences with a mediated representation of reality, leading to passive consumption and a disconnection from genuine human interaction.

Description:

Now that youve selected your final research topics that you will build upon for the last 4 weeks of this course, we are going to take a deep dive into research and source evaluation. To this point, youve had experience evaluating other authors arguments, sources, logic, and claim types and now its your turn to try your hand at crafting a multidimensional and hybrid argument of your own.

Selecting high quality source material and practicing ethical and sound research is not only important in the context of academia but can tremendously increase your writerly ethos when done well. Using research strategies and techniques outlined by our authors alongside practicing important source annotation techniques will be the first and most vital step in crafting your final hybrid argument and extended research paper.

Module Objectives:

1. Integrate outside perspectives into texts

2. Distinguish high quality source materials
