  Write paper based on Chapter 4 If you need to see the whole chapter I can send it to you it won′t let me on here HIST 1301 Primary Source Paper Summer 1 2017 Hard Copy Due In Class Begin" rel="nofollow">in by readin" rel="nofollow">ing all of the sources from Chapter 4 “From Colonies to States” in" rel="nofollow">in For the Record. Also read the additional sources I have uploaded to D2L. Once you have done this, you will write a 3-5 page paper (1-in" rel="nofollow">inch margin" rel="nofollow">ins, Times New Roman font) that answers the followin" rel="nofollow">ing question: Based on your readin" rel="nofollow">ing of the sources in" rel="nofollow">in For the Record, what was the primary reason the colonists sought in" rel="nofollow">independence from Britain" rel="nofollow">in? Why did some colonists argue again" rel="nofollow">inst in" rel="nofollow">independence? The purpose of this assignment is to work on how to analyze a primary source. Your goal is to analyze your sources as deeply and as thoroughly as possible. Do not simply provide a general summary or overview of your sources. Thin" rel="nofollow">ink concretely and critically about their content, historical context, the historical cultural values that shape them, and their relevance to the assignment’s question(s). When readin" rel="nofollow">ing a source, consider the author’s tone, style, and argument, and its strengths and weaknesses. Read between the lin" rel="nofollow">ines to discover its biases and assumptions. Your paper must have an in" rel="nofollow">introductory paragraph, body paragraphs, and a concludin" rel="nofollow">ing paragraph. Your in" rel="nofollow">introduction must contain" rel="nofollow">in an argument (thesis statement) that clearly explain" rel="nofollow">ins your position and responds directly to the central question(s) posed above. You must underlin" rel="nofollow">ine that argument in" rel="nofollow">in the in" rel="nofollow">introduction. Your body paragraphs must then cite at least FOUR relevant primary sources from the chapter assigned. You may use in" rel="nofollow">information from the background section or your textbook if you wish, but your four sources MUST come from the primary sources. Your sources must also be cited with footnotes (NOT parenthetical citations). If you do not know how to use footnotes, please see me durin" rel="nofollow">ing office hours. Your footnote citation should use the followin" rel="nofollow">ing template: “Name of Source,” Page Number(s). You do not need to in" rel="nofollow">include anythin" rel="nofollow">ing else in" rel="nofollow">in your footnote sin" rel="nofollow">ince you are all usin" rel="nofollow">ing the same chapter. Do not cite anythin" rel="nofollow">ing outside of the provided chapter. Also, do not try to fill up your paper with long quotes from the primary sources. Quotations should be short and only used if they directly back up your argument. In general, you should devote a paragraph to each primary source you use, with a footnote at the end of the paragraph (and at the end of each direct quote). Your paper must be organized in" rel="nofollow">in some coherent fashion. Each paragraph should begin" rel="nofollow">in with a topic sentence that explain" rel="nofollow">ins the poin" rel="nofollow">int of that paragraph. You must also be detailed when analyzin" rel="nofollow">ing the primary sources—do not assume that I know what you are tryin" rel="nofollow">ing to say, and do not thin" rel="nofollow">ink that the primary sources speak for themselves. Be detailed and clear when makin" rel="nofollow">ing your argument and backin" rel="nofollow">ing it up with evidence.     Papers will be graded accordin" rel="nofollow">ing to the followin" rel="nofollow">ing criteria: Organization (0 to 20 poin" rel="nofollow">ints) 1. Is there a clear-cut thesis statement that controls the direction of the paper and limits the scope of the ideas presented in" rel="nofollow">in it? 2. Are the ideas presented in" rel="nofollow">in an orderly sequence that makes sense? 3. Does the paper have a clear in" rel="nofollow">introduction that in" rel="nofollow">invites further readin" rel="nofollow">ing? 4. Does the paper have a clear and thoughtful conclusion that draws the ideas together and leaves the reader satisfied? Development (0 to 60 poin" rel="nofollow">ints) 1. Are the ideas explored adequately within" rel="nofollow">in the limits established by the thesis statement? 2. Does the paper avoid excessive direct quotations? 3. Does the paper offer sufficient detail or enough examples drawn from the sources to clarify major poin" rel="nofollow">ints and make them convin" rel="nofollow">incin" rel="nofollow">ing? 4. Is the paper’s language accurate and effective in" rel="nofollow">in makin" rel="nofollow">ing ideas and evidence clear? 5. Does the length of the paper fall within" rel="nofollow">in the required range (min" rel="nofollow">inimum 3 pages)? Mechanics (0 to 20 poin" rel="nofollow">ints) 1. Does the paper demonstrate control over the essential elements of grammar? 2. Are the sentences clear and smooth? 3. Has the paper avoided major grammatical errors (such as sentence fragments, spellin" rel="nofollow">ing errors, run-on sentences, verb agreement errors, verb form errors, etc.)? 4. Does the format of the paper match the in" rel="nofollow">instructions for the assignment? Note: Late submissions will be penalized 3 poin" rel="nofollow">ints for every 24 hours late. Other deductions, each 3 poin" rel="nofollow">ints: not meetin" rel="nofollow">ing min" rel="nofollow">inimum page length, not followin" rel="nofollow">ing in" rel="nofollow">instructions above, not in" rel="nofollow">includin" rel="nofollow">ing all of the required parts in" rel="nofollow">in your paper. Tips for success: Don’t wait until the last min" rel="nofollow">inute! You will not do well. I recommend readin" rel="nofollow">ing through the sources at least a couple of time to be sure you clearly understand the main" rel="nofollow">in poin" rel="nofollow">ints. Before you turn your paper in" rel="nofollow">in, be sure you have read it through checkin" rel="nofollow">ing for any errors. You do not want to lose stupid poin" rel="nofollow">ints because spell check thought you actually meant “tis” in" rel="nofollow">instead of “its.” Never trust spell check. Read your own paper and have a second set of eyes check it over for you too. Do NOT plagiarize. Do not copy and paste from a review on the Internet that you have found. Further, this is NOT a group project, so do not write your paper with a friend. If I see two identical papers, you both will be guilty of plagiarism. If you try to pass someone else’s work off as your own in" rel="nofollow">in any way, it will be considered plagiarism and you will receive an automatic zero on the assignment and will be reported to the college for academic dishonesty. Just don’t do it.
