This essay will also be a five-paragraph essay. You will focus on using the cause/effect strategy of writing and may also include some comparison/contrast. To add good details, you also will want to continue using narrative, descriptive, and illustrative/example essay strategies. (SCROLL TO THE BOTTOM OF PAGE FOR THE SUBMISSION LINK.)
The focus of this essay will be to examine a problem from your field of study, looking at the causes/effects of this problem and perhaps comparing it to past problems that might be in similar fields.
You have two choices for this assignment:
Pick one challenge from your previously written essay.
How will you organize this essay? It’s a five-paragraph essay, so you will have an introduction that ends with a three-point thesis, then three body paragraphs discussing each of the three points, then a conclusion in which you offer a forward-thinking idea.
As you collect ideas, remember to think in threes: Background, Causes & Effects (for each body paragraph)
