What I Now Know That I Did Not Know Before
This essay will allow you to reflect on what you now know, that you might not have known, at the start of this semester. You will be identifying 3 terms/concepts you found most interesting from our course and explaining what you will do with what we have learned moving forward. Be sure to adequately address each part of the assignment to receive full credit. (You essay should be 3-4 pages, double spaced, 12point, Times New Roman Font)
This essay contains the following three sections:
1. You will select three terms/concepts that you found most interesting throughout the semester. Work and the economy, culture, socialization.
• Introduce and define each term/concept that you found most interesting. Bold the font of each of the three terms when you first introduce them. Use what you learned from the text to explain the term/concept, but do not directly copy the textbook definition. You should be explaining this in your own words.
• Explain why you found this term interesting. Is it something you had not thought about before? Is it something that you thought about differently prior to learning about sociology? You can explain why you think you thought differently about these concepts previously. How did you develop your perception about these concepts initially?
• For each term or concept, find one media source or academic article that relates to one each of these terms. Of the three articles, at least one must be an academic journal article. Discuss how the article relates to the term. Explain how using your sociological imagination makes you think differently about the article or how the article helps to add to you understanding about the concept.

2. What will you do with what you now know?
• We learned a lot about how society operates, with a specific focus on inequality based on class, gender and race. How might you use your sociological imagination in the future to help address these issues of inequality? How might you use this information in your future career in some way? These can be small acts, but you should be able to name at least one way that you can use this information moving forward.

3. Include references for each of the articles you cite. You may use ASA, APA or MLA citing, just be consistent.

*Check your assignment for grammar, spelling and clarity. This should be presented as a complete essay, not a list of bulleted points.

Purpose: The initial purpose for this writing assignment is to inform our audience about a problem and potential solution(s). The assignment calls for using different rhetorical strategies to create one text. The research essay targets and improves composition skills and critical thinking skills.
Goals:
• Create an academic essay of at least five full pages of text (no more than seven full pages of text).
• Apply MLA formatting to the essay: 12 pt. Times New Roman font, double-spaced, 1” margins, last name and page number in the upper right hand corner, and a heading including your name, class, instructor’s name, and date. Also include a title.
• Apply basic composition skills: topic sentences, thesis statement, logical and effective organization, effective integration of sources, transitions, and incorporating appropriate content.
• Understand and apply standard written English. Use appropriate vocabulary and avoid mechanical and grammatical errors.
• Integrate and use 4-7 credible sources (books, journal articles, NC Live, etc.—use our library’s databases).
• Create a works cited page (does not count towards the overall length of the actual essay).

Assignment: This assignment is relatively simple. You will first identify and explain a problem area within a subject matter that you have chosen, persuading your reader that this is a serious enough issue to require some kind of change in thought or action. Then, you should persuade your readers to think a certain way or to take a certain action to correct that problem (i.e. propose solutions to that problem
Sources: Use your sources to reinforce your position. Do not start paragraphs with quotations, and do not end paragraphs with quotations. You should always assume control by using the evidence to support your claims, not writing claims to support your evidence. Your words should always outweigh the quotations. Also, make sure to use attribution to effectively integrate sources. Do not let a quotation act as its own sentence. You must incorporate your research throughout the entire essay. Your research should not be more than five years old.

Note: The following sources will not be accepted:
•
• Primary or secondary educational resources (websites, study guides, etc.)

Guided Annotated Bibliography
1. Please create your own Word document and format it in proper APA.
2. Then, after your title page, compose a paragraph of approach and purpose. Answer all of the following questions in good depth and detail in this single rich paragraph: What has been your approach to finding your sources? What have you been looking for? How successful have you been? Do you plan to change strategies, and/or do you have additional specific sources or search strategies in mind?
Guidelines:
The annotated bibliography is formatted in a particular manner, and there are different types of annotated bibliographies. Yours must be analytical in nature in that you are not just explaining the source’s contents, but also performing evaluations on your sources and connecting them to your own purposes.
Your sources will be in alphabetical order, all referenced in correct APA style, and each followed by a rich paragraph analyzing the source. The paragraph must be formatted according to APA standards, with correct indentations and spacing.
Each annotation should include a very brief overview, then a close look at specific points, ideas and information from the source that stand out to you as important in the context of your own argument. Use evidence from the source and explain how and why it is a viable source in general, and then specifically why it is valuable to you, to one of your specific points/purposes. Finally, note if the source backs or opposes other sources on your list and how. In short, dig deeply and use your annotations as preparation for structuring and drafting your paper.
