It’s time to submit the final draft of your persuasive essay. At this point, your course faculty member has returned to you the graded first draft of the assignment, as well as, some insightful feedback.

For this assignment, consider all the feedback you’ve received on your first draft, including from last week’s Online+ session, and submit your 3-4 page persuasive essay based on the following criteria: Using the 7th edition APA style template, complete the following steps:

Begin with customizing the cover to reflect the title of your assignment and the due date:

Next, put the title of the paper at the top of page 2 in bold and center it.

Then, double space and left justify your margins, indent for your first paragraph, which will be your introduction to the paper. You do not need to put a sub-heading title for the introduction. You simply begin the paper after you indent it.

Your introduction paragraph will include the following: One direct quote to begin the paper, followed by an in-text citation. Then several sentences to introduce the reader to your topic. These are followed by the 3 part thesis statement with your because clause that is the last sentence of the introduction. Please underline your thesis statement. Your introductory paragraph should be 5-6 sentences in length, but no more.

Begin the body with your first bold heading for the first part of the 3 part thesis statement. Each body paragraph will begin with a bold heading. Be sure and use at least 3 quotes in the paper.

Your paper should have an in-text citation for each fact, summary, and a direct quote. The completed paper should have approximately 6-8 citations included within the paper.

Three or more body paragraphs that each focus on a separate major detail. Each paragraph should have a bold heading to set it off. The bold headings let your reader know what material will be covered in that section of the paper. You may use more than one paragraph per section if needed.

A summary paragraph that summarizes your main ideas and puts a bow on the essay.

Your reference page will list all of your sources in APA style.

Additionally, be sure to proof your essay draft carefully for grammar, mechanics, and spelling.

Applied revision and editing strategies to strengthen the essay.
