please see uploads before biding Before attempting this assignment, you should: *view the video on Synthesis Essays which is under the Synthesis Essay tab *have already read the assigned readings under the Readings tab *have formulated a question that will lead you to the creation of a thesis statement (see the handout Writing About Fiction--disregard that it's about fiction; the concept is true for whatever you're writing, fiction or not). For the synthesis essay, you will create a thesis statement based on a question that you come up with concerning some aspect of the topic of work. (You've already begun this when you began writing your sample paper during the first week of the semester in class). Develop and support the thesis statement in the body of your paper. You should use at least three of the readings as sources to either support or refute your main point. You will paraphrase or quote the sources and will cite them according to MLA documentation style. Papers that do not use paraphrases or quotes with in-text citations will not receive credit. Do not use outside sources. If you would like to see a samples of synthesis papers, see the ones posted under the Synthesis Essay tab. Keep in mind that you will want a thesis statement that produces an argumentative (persuasive) synthesis, not an informational one. For example, if you ask the question "What is globalization?" then you are going to spend the whole paper giving information about what it is. This doesn't fulfill the requirement for the paper, and it really doesn't say anything new. We've already talked about globalization in class, and at length. You need to say something fresh, something new about the topic of work. Your paper should not be centered on the sources; it should be centered on a strong, persusasive thesis statement. The sources are there to back you up, but you have to do the talking. Resist the temptation to surf the internet to see what somebody else has to say about work--be original! 1300 words
