 Format: Typed, double-spaced, submitted as a word-processing document.

12 point, text-weight font, 1-inch margins.

 Length: 1000 words (approx. 4)

 Value: This project will be graded out of 100 possible points, and will be worth 30% of the grade for the course.

 Overview: in Unit 4: Writing Analysis, students will develop an analytical argument that shows original thinking and offers insight into their topic. They will offer conclusions that address the implications of how their perspective might influence the way the topic is perceived or practiced.


Assignment

Write an analysis of a journal article, magazine article, editorial, speech, book, or website.

Analysis is a common form of academic writing that asks us to think critically as readers and make connections between arguments and their larger contexts. For this project, you will identify an issue relevant to the community you investigated in the previous unit. Then, you will explore the written arguments surrounding that issue, eventually narrowing your focus to a single journal article, magazine article, editorial, speech, book, or website. After you choose this text, you will analyze the context, subtext and appeals of a particular text, focusing on both textual analysis (close reading of the text itself) and contextual analysis (analyzing the text within its larger context). Your final analysis should offer a better or richer understanding of how the text represents a topic (concept, issue, or other idea) that has significance for a specific community or communities (168).

Objectives

These questions help to guide discussion and inquiry for this unit. The goal is not necessarily to answer these questions, but to explore them through the work of class discussions, writing, and reflection.


 What is analysis? What is the purpose and value of analysis in classroom settings and outside of school? 

 What potential does writing have to make change in the world? What are the implications of written arguments? What impacts can arguments have on communities? 

 How can I use writing to explain and break down complex ideas into parts that audiences can understand? How can writing allow me to share my insight with others? 

 How can I use writing to advance larger points or ideas that I want to communicate? How can I advocate through writing?

Requirements

Write a 2-3 page well organized process essay. 

Preparation

Think of something that you do very well. Imagine that you have been hired (at a substantial salary) to explain how to complete this task to your classmates. You may write either a directive process analysis that explains how to do something or how to make something, or an informative process analysis that explains how something is done or how it takes place.

Re-read The Method on pages 254-259 to understand the differences between these two types of process analysis essays.

Example topics:


 How to write an A+ college essay

 How to give an effective speech

 How to prepare a delicious holiday meal

 How a bill becomes a law in the United States Congress

 How a president is elected in the United States


Draft the Introduction and Thesis statement


 In the introduction, define the process, explain the purpose of the process or why it is important. State your experience in successfully completing the process.

 In the thesis, state the high-level steps of the process (3-5).


 Draft the Body Paragraphs


 In separate body paragraphs, for each thesis point, explain the details required for completing the process step successfully. 

 Provide examples and offer tips that will help the reader complete the process successfully or understand it better. State what to avoid in completing a process step. 

 Follow the guidelines in the Bedford Reader on page 257 for organizing your process analysis.


After writing your first draft, study the Checklist for Reviewing and Revising a Process Analysis (258) and Focus on Consistency (259). Adjust your essay to follow the guidelines in these two checklists.
