Thesis
Introduction

General
Conclusion

Specific
What to avoid when writing an Introduction and Conclusion
Don't write an essay like used to in highschool
Develop thesis and repeat in conclusion
Alter Thesis

reword thesis so it differs from intro & conclusion
The body of essay is spend to develop material and info, it doesn't make sense to repeat thesis at the end again
Students tend to get married to one single version of their Thesis

LOOOOOL
Thesis = Topic ( Walmart) & controlling idea ( good place for bargains)
Organize grammar, content, ideas
make sure to be clear and easy to understand
know your audience
Anecdote = personal story DOES NOT belong in body of essay
Anecdotes go into Introduction
Next week focus is on exam
Academic Honesty / Integrity = borderline of theft and honesty
padding = pretends something you have never done nor achieved academics/career/ inventing a job or degree you DO NOT have
Take responsibility for your work
DO NOT ruin the chance of success for someone else through laziness and ignorance.
