Paragraph

drawing readers with the first sentence, strategic formatting, short paragraphs, clear writing and a conversational tone (Hohenshel and Hand, 36). The chapter starts off with Bell Hook explaining why she was preoccupied by dreams of consecutively away from Oberlin College. This first sentence draws the readers by the choice of words she uses and how she uses them to explain herself. This strategy is experienced in all the paragraphs of this chapter. This attracts her audience…

Following the introduction are paragraphs that will consist of supporting examples that encompass your thesis. In each paragraph, there should be a main idea that ties back to the thesis. Additionally, you can organize your paragraphs in chronological, deductive, emphatic, inductive, parallelism, and spatial orders. In chronological order, you present your events in the order in which they occurred. In deductive, you order the examples and details in your body paragraphs from general to…

explained before I make a point. When restructuring essays without an outline, I can 't tell what a change should entail. Having a current, separate outline helps me keep an eye on what comes before a paragraph, and what idea it should be leading towards. When I find my essay needs a new paragraph, I can look at the entire essay 's construction to see where it fits best. Having an outline on hand after I’ve finished writing also makes revision…

topic that I could research. Finally, I have at last figured out how to write a fairly effective concluding paragraph. These three improvements have made the writing process a lot smoother, and made my final draft that much better. As I mentioned, the first way my writing has improved over the course of the semester is I realized that I needed to add more imagery and details to my paragraphs. Even though I know what the scene is supposed to look like in my mind, I sometimes forgot that readers…

What would my employees think? Am I a pushover? Will more complaints occur? In order to avoid these questions and any resulting regret the decision was made based on the regret theory (Plous, 1993 p.101). 3. Compare and contrast your understanding of judgment and/or decision making using these three different theoretical approaches. My understanding of the judgment was based on the surrounding context. The baseline for the behavior of the employee was determined by a reference point,…

dean of admissions at Kenyon College and a mother who had to explain to her daughter why she didn 't get accepted. Her opening paragraph implements pathos, using her child 's distress she provokes an emotional response. By doing this she appeals to much more significant audience: parents, peers, and most people who have experienced some sort of rejection. In the first paragraph, her personal narrative begins the use of…

the learning environment, abuse of gun regulations, crimes like theft, and they do not increase campus safety.” In this case, the last four things listed go on to act as my major arguments for the essay. Each point is not strictly limited to one paragraph, but it is easy to see these four main points stand out as I continue with the essay. I do not say anything in that sentence that doesn’t appear later on, and I do not add any points to my paper that aren’t in that…

rhetoric, invention, arrangement, style, memory, and delivery. Ever since then, I tried to improve on my style and arrangement of writing. When reading The New Jim Crows by Michelle Alexander, I analyzed her style of writing and her arrangement of paragraphs so that I can replicate what she does to effectively address her argument. From her style of writing, I learned that using statistics and giving a real life example of the problem made her argument stronger. My first attempt of this was not…

The second fact that caught my eye was that a person can buy another’s debt. I thought that was interesting but not a very smart thing to do. The third thing that piqued my interest was about the company Providian. As I mentioned in the first paragraph, college students are a main target for credit card companies. Me being a freshman in college, I found this enlightening and important. Being raised in the business world, I realize that every company has a role to play in the society and has to…
