I’m studying for my English class and need an explanation.

This week, you will submit the final draft of your analytical paper.

Your final paper should reflect suggestions and questions that arose during the rough draft and peer review process. It must include the following:

• An introduction that provides relevant background information and ends with your thesis statement
• A minimum of six body paragraphs, each of which addresses a particular subtopic that relates to your thesis statement
• A minimum of three references from reliable sources; one must be a scholarly, academic article, and all must be cited at least once in the paper
• A conclusion that reaffirms your thesis statement and addresses wider implications
• Formatting, citations, and references must all adhere to APA style

Points: 200
Due Sunday, 11:59 p.m. (Pacific time)

Week 8 Analytical Paper Presentation

This week, you will also submit a PowerPoint presentation based on your Analytical Paper.

Your 5- to 10-slide presentation should explain your chosen speech on a literal level and provide a brief discussion of your analysis. The last slide in your presentation should be a learning activity or tool for those viewing your presentation. The goal of the last slide is to guide others in the right direction so that they can develop greater insights about your text and its implications.

Be creative! How can you teach others what you have learned?

Ideas for engaging learning activities include:

• Design a scavenger hunt; audience members must find examples in the text to confirm or challenge your conclusions
• Create a checklist that others can use as they read the assigned text
• Create an infographic or poster that presents your analysis at a glance
• Instructions for a debate
