Introduction: Set up a thesis statement in which you briefly identify and summarize the point(s) you will make. 2. Main body: The next part should provide your analysis of the article’s argument(s). Your analysis should use concepts and theories you have learned in class. 3. Conclusion: Briefly draw the evaluation together in a short concluding paragraph. NOTE: Any references you cite should be identified in APA format and listed at the end of the paper. They do not count toward the word limit. Length · Your assignment should have words between 800-1,000 (excluding the title page and the reference list).

For example, “(800 words)” · The title page should have your full name, student id number and the class information (i.e., CMNS230). · The file you submit must be a Microsoft word document. · Files must be named Student Id Number_CMNS230_Paper.

Academic Integrity: Columbia College takes incidents of plagiarism very seriously and prosecutes them vigorously. Not knowing what constitutes plagiarism is not a defense. Writing Tips: Some essential writing tips: · Give attention to your sentence structure and avoid sentences too long. · Accurate punctuations and complete sentences. · Make sure your paragraphs are self-contained and coherent: put only one main idea in each paragraph. Avoid too long (more than 1/3 of a page) or too short (one or two sentences only) paragraphs. · Make your main point early on, and make sure that everything you write serves to support your main point (even your counter - arguments serve to support your main point). · Support each argument with evidence, such as examples or other scholars’ researches and arguments. · Carry through on taming big tech.
