After reading the article titled, “Tracking Guns and Other Dangers,” write a 2 page double-spaced response.
The introductory paragraph–which should be half a page in length–should be a brief summary of the article–citing specific, detailed, and compelling facts to create context and exigency–with a transition to the purpose/thesis statement that reflects your argument. Be sure to include information in this summary that relates to the argument that you will support in your body paragraphs. It should also clearly establish that you have read, and understand, the article.
Remember that this is a “writing” assignment–express summaries and your own ideas in your own words. No copying and pasting, please. Answer the prompt question below.
• What precautions can you take to protect yourself from violence on campus?
Avoid broad and highly general discussions. Instead, focus on a specific aspect of your topic and discuss it in detail.
You will need to support your argument with specific examples and facts from credible sources. Avoid the temptation to support your argument exclusively with personal anecdotal evidence and personal values. Also, please do not exceed the specified length. I will not grade assignments that do not comply with this criterion until they have been revised, and they will be considered late. If the first draft of your response exceeds the specified length, you will need to revise it for concision. Keep in mind that the key to success is quality over quantity. In order to have time to revise your work, be sure to get started on this assignment a few days before it is due.
