ALLIED ENG160 MODULE 7 homework assignment

Patterns of
Essay Development: Part 5
PART I
Modules 5 through 8 Homework Assignments will be a
continuation of a writing process. You
will construct your essay by answering the following prompt, which will be
given at the beginning of each homework assignment. This is a step-by-step process. As long as you read the textbook and all the
lecture notes and complete the activities, you will not encounter much
difficulty.
Prompt: Today there is an increasing
amount of students enrolling in online schools and online courses than ever
before. Write a cause-and-effect essay
explaining the effects that online education has on students.
1. Continuing
from Modules 5 and 6 Homework Assignments, take out your outline and
introductory paragraph and reread them.
2. Using your
outline, write the three body paragraphs of your cause-and-effect essay. Include as much support as possible. Make sure that you properly transition
between sentences and paragraphs.
3. You will turn
in the body paragraphs (in paragraph form, not outline form) along with the
introduction. Make sure that it is in
one document (one attachment).
You have successfully written the body of your
cause-and-effect essay. You are now
ready to write the concluding paragraph of your essay in Module 8 Homework
Assignment.
PART II

Directions: Please read “Wait Divisions” by Tom Bodett on page 352
of your textbook. When you have finished
reading the article, answer the following questions with at least 250 words per
question.

1.
The thesis of
Bedett’s essay is not presented directly.
See if you can state it in your own words.
2.
In paragraph 2,
Bodett introduces several possible effects of waiting, then dismisses them with
a “probably not.” Is it a sign of
careless writing that Bodett mentions irrelevant topics and then dismisses
them? Or does he intend a particular
effect by introducing unnecessary topics?
If he does intend an effect, how would you describe it?
3.
Bodett refers to
the first two waits as cousins. How does
he differentiate between them?
4.
How does Bodett
support his claim that the Forced Wait “requires a bit of discipline”?
5.
In what ways does
the first sentence in paragraph 13 serve as a summary of Bodett’s main points?
