In this assignment, you will provide your refined thesis (based on the feedback you receive this week) and an update on your research in progress. Please provide the following information:
Your thesis
Your intended audience
List at least 3 reputable sources, including the following:
MLA citation of the source (please refer to the “MLA Help” page, available on our homepage)
One-sentence summary of the source
How will you use this source in your essay to advance your purpose for writing? (In other words, does this source provide background or foundational information, frame the discussion, define key terms, support your claims, present a compelling example or illustration of a point, offer a new perspective, or serve as a counter argument?) See this list of action verbs to help you articulate the purpose of the source.
Identify what’s missing in your research, and think about information you are still seeking from additional sources (do you have research from other perspectives?)
