WRITING SKILLS II

MAIN PURPOSE OF THE PAPER discussion of primary text by means of text interpretation (approx. 80%)

CONSTRUCTION OF ARGUMENT plato says: “justice is to mind one’s own business” what does this mean? a)it means equality (supported by other quotes and research) b)it means inequality (supported by other quotes and research c)according to your opinion (as supported by discussing quotes and research) it means…

RESEARCH should support your text interpretation in other words: what do other scholars have to say about plato’s idea of justice and not: what do other authors say about justice in canada

IN-TEXT CITATION primary text (author year: chapter, paragraph or enumeration) secondary text (author year: page)

CONSTRUCT YOUR OWN ARGUMENT series of in-text notes from same source and page(s) is indication of just following that source

PRECISION OF LANGUAGE AND CITATION need to cite “correctly and directly” you can summarize a paragraph in your own words to indicate general idea and content but key concepts need precise language and citation books of political thought are not ‘novels’

BIBLIOGRAPHY journal articles from electronic source: John Mayer, “Plato’s Idea of Justice,” Canadian Journal of Political Science 45:3, books: Jane Cooper, Plato and the Idea of Justice (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2008).
