Suggest possible revisions to make the thesis more effective and clear. · Does the introduction reflect all of the elements of a good introduction? If so, how? If not, why not? Suggest possible revisions to improve the introduction. · What other insight or suggestions might you offer your classmate regarding her/his introductory paragraph? Paragraph 1: Fixed into our minds from an early age is the idea that stronger language creates more power. As spoken by the famous Australian neurologist Sigmund Freud, “Words have a magical power. They can either bring the greatest happiness or the deepest despair.” This holds true in languages all around the world. So, why does language and power have such an impact on people? The fact that people lose out on jobs, careers, opportunities, and social events because their language is not as strong as it should be is disappointing and is creating a big problem that needs to be resolved. It has been an issue for years and only continues to be more of a challenge in society today. This social issue in particular in a real life instance develops a person's understanding in communication, proper grammar and life skills to succeed in their careers for a lifetime to come. Language plays a powerful role in an individual’s job opportunities, social status, and acceptance. Question 3: In this discussion, you will share a draft of one of your body paragraphs.

The Elements of the Case Study The next milestone for the case study project is to put together and submit a full draft. To be sure that your draft includes all of the required elements, you should carefully review the specific instructions for the assignment: Case Study Project. As indicated in the assignment instructions, your case study should be a minimum of six (6) paragraphs and should describe a "real life" instance of your selected social issue, discuss your perspective on the issue, and discuss how your core values shape your perspective. One suggestion for meeting the length and content requirements is to organize your paragraphs as follows: Paragraph 1: introduction with "real life" instance of social issue and perspective (thesis) Paragraphs 2-4: body paragraphs that explain reasons for thesis/perspective and incorporate support from the readings Paragraph 5: body paragraph that explains the connection between core values and perspective/thesis Paragraph 6: conclusion that brings the case study to a close Regardless of how you choose to organize your writing, you want to be sure that you address all of the criteria of the assignment. During week 6, you will complete the following steps towards your case study project: · Draft your introduction, which will include your "real life instance" and your thesis · Draft your body paragraphs in which you will use ideas and information from the course readings to explain and support the reasons behind your thesis. You will also explain how your core values inform your thesis and reasons. · Draft your conclusion paragraph · Submit a full first draft of your case study project Writing Your Introduction The first paragraph of your case study is an introduction that should grab the reader's attention, narrow the reader's focus, and state your thesis. The following video from the Effective Writing Center provides guidance on writing a solid introductory paragraph. Here is a youtube video link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mIbeEhb_MzA&feature=youtu.be The introduction to your case study must include a "real life" instance of your selected social issue. This can serve as your attention grabber. You will then present your unique perspective on your social issue. This is your thesis. The following is an example of an introductory paragraph for the case study: Ingrained in our society is the belief that education equals empowerment. Through education and hard work, anyone can achieve success. Imagine an individual who gets through K-12 schooling and then attends and successfully completes college. Many would see this individual as someone on the brink of empowerment. A college education is the ticket to a bright and fulfilling future, right? In reality, this college-educated individual enters the job market only to find that her degree from the local state college is not as desirable as the same degree from an Ivy League institution. She also finds that as a woman, employers consider her less qualified than her male peers. In light of this, her ability to make a comparable salary and to be promoted is limited. Contrary to popular opinion, education does not always lead to empowerment. Lack of access, limited employment opportunities, and potential discrimination can hinder the success of educated individuals. Notice that the sample introduction states the social issue (education and empowerment), discusses how this issue can play out in a "real life" instance (the college-educated
