Project 1(Part2) assignment sheet
What is a genre (Part 2)
In the second part of Project 1, you will need to research many of the previous questions you answered in your own words in Part 1. The key will be to use credible research to compare and contrast with your personal views on the topic of genre. It will also be important to weave Part 1 together with Part 2 in a thoughtful, artful, and coherent way. Again, you will need to rely heavily on credible research (and you will have to make the case for its credibility).
The kinds of questions you should address in your essay:
- From the research, what is a generally accepted definition of genre?
- What does research say about genre (in general)?
- How do experts say genres are (or should be) separated?
- How does the research compare to what you said in Part 1?
- Requirements:
- Please, cite everything correctly (or your grade will be delayed)
- Closely follow the prompt
- MLA or APA
- Work cited/reference page
- 4-5 full pages
