seminar You topic

Questions we will cover today: How do I structure an essay? What is the writing process? How do I choose a question? What is a thesis statement? What is research? Is an essay ever finished?

Writing Research 2 (Secondary material) Selecting your question Research 1 (Primary text) Editing The process of writing an essay:

Selecting your question: Read all the questions What question interests you most? Does this question challenge you? How will you approach the question? Thesis Statement

Research 1: The Primary Text Re-read the primary text(s) Select the passages you will focus on Analyse these passages Outline an essay plan based on your analysis Draft a close reading of the text based on your essay plan

What are examples of the various kinds of secondary material you can use in an essay? Why is secondary material important? What is the difference between theory and secondary criticism? Why is it important to have your thesis statement and rough draft done before you start secondary research? Secondary material: Stop and think

Research 2: Secondary Material Work relevant material into the draft of your essay Look at module reading lists & do library catalogue searches Briefly look at material you think will be relevant Make a list of useful material Work through your list and make notes

Editing: Read what you have written - edit as you go. Have you answered the question? Does your essay answer your thesis statement? Does the organisation of your essay make sense? Then set your essay aside for a break before you proof read it. Rewrite your introduction Read what you have written... again
