Document Summary

Electronic lecture on various essay models (nov. 3, 2015): Yes, although some assignments require more technical, empirical, or factual writing. Discern the objectives of the essay before proceeding with your organization of the outline. For instance, if a professor asks for a summary or overview, he or she wishes to see more exposition than argumentation: position papers: require an argument, research (whether primary or secondary or both) to substantiate its claims. However, few paragraphs, may be expository and factual: essay structure depends on type of essay you need to write. Academic essays can be either static or progressive in movement: static essays: analyze or discuss an idea in several equally weighted major components, are mutually support the thesis. Comparative essays and descriptive essays are static. Usually: probable that medical or scientific topics will be static. Historical and cultural topics will move toward the culminating argument.
