chooseone of the readings from lecture packets 2 to 4. [see notes below the prompt for advice on choosing] Clearly label each step of your response on the ‘paper’ that you hand in.
1) Pick out the argument / thesis of the reading you have chosen (what is the big point the author wants to get across to the reader?) State the author’s thesis *clearly & concisely*in one sentence.
2) Identify the points that the scholar addressed in order to prove their main argument. *This is NOT the same as evidence*; you will identify that below. The points answer questions that a *reasonable, well-informed* person would ask to understand & accept the author’s thesis.
3) *Briefly*state the evidence that the scholar uses to prove each of their points. Be clear about which evidence was used to support which point.
