Genre Write an essay, 8 fully-developed paragraphs, which compares and
contrasts two items: ideas, objects, phenomena, individuals, problems,
solutions, theories, or causes. See Syllabus for (MLA) format. It is a
formal essay, and it is to be evaluative and persuasive, that is, the main
idea, or central claim, is your opinion. You will offer your evaluation of
the two items relative to each other, and persuade us of your claim.
Research and secondary sources are not required for this essay; however, it
is strongly suggested. This project is based on Ch. 11 of the Textbook,
Patterns of College Writing.
Topic While all essays will be comparative, evaluative, and persuasive, you
will choose your own topic, and your own basis of comparison. For example,
you may choose to compare two problems, in terms of severity; you may
compare two solutions to a problem; you may compare two theories of the
primary cause of a problem. You might compare two artists, scientists, or
some other thinker or some other important person; You may work in the
fields of social problems, biology, politics, physics, or any of the arts.
There is no limit, except that it is not to be a personal essay. You won’t
use “I” and “me” unless you happen to have personal experience with your
topic. You will find a Moodle document to aid you in finding and narrowing
your topic, identifying inquiry questions, and a working thesis.
Organization There are several ways to organize a comparison essay, and we
will discuss the most common ways in class.
Support Most of your support will be from your own head and experience.
These supporting details (evidence, since this is a persuasive essay) may
include: logical inference / logical conclusions; personal experience or
secondhand knowledge; examples, and facts already in your own knowledge
base. You are expected to read up on your topic, but you do not have to use
secondary support in your paper. If you do, these supporting details /
evidence might include: facts, statistics, ideas, expert testimony, and
research studies. Any information you get from your reading that you did
not already know must be documented. We are not going to deal with the
formal matters of documentation in this class; however, you are expected to
provide basic information about your source(s) if you do use them: Last
name author and page number in parenthesis in the body of your essay where
you use the fact, quote, etc.; More information at the end of the essay:
author, title of article, title of magazine or journal, date of
publication, website address if it is from the World Wide Web.
Provide an introduction of two or three paragraphs which: 1) hooks our
interest (an interesting anecdote, fact, statistic, or surprising
statement); 2) briefly explains the issue/problem and any public
“conversation” about it, including all positions; it should tell us, in
Graff’s term, what “they say” or “others say” about the issue; and 3)
states your thesis, in a sentence: the topic and your claim about it. The
introduction is not, primarily, for arguing your position. That is for the
body. Provide a brief conclusion paragraph of 2-4 sentences summing up and
forcefully restating your thesis. The conclusion should not introduce new
supporting points.
and the topic will be compare between community college and university
