What are the 'roots' of the Occupy Wall Street movement, how was it inspired by or modeled after other world events, and how did the social media networks play a role in starting OWS up and keeping it going?
Directions- (If you did a good job when you answered the five questions from assignment 9, most of your work is done already!)
- Review your answers for the five questions from assignment 9
- Write an introduction for your essay that is a very short summary of some of the facts that will answer the question above. Keep it short , give the main idea, and don't give many details in the introduction. This will be paragraph one.
- Now take your answers to the five questions and make one paragraph for each answer. this is where you will give all the details that you found out when you did the research. This will make paragraphs two, three, four, five, and six.
- If your paragraphs are too short, an easy way to fatten them up is to go back to the web pages you looked at and find some quotes to add. You do it like this- Joe Smith of the NY Daily News said,"Those dirty Occupy Wall Street people…blah, blah, blah, etc."
- Last you must have a bibliography of the Internet sources of your information. This bibliography is where you cite your sources.
- You should end up with about three pages in a 12 or 14 point ‘Arial’ or ‘Times New Roman’ font.
Please take note. A goal of this class is to have the students (you!) learn how to correctly cite your sources and make a bibliography. Therefore, if there is no bibliography you will get an automatic 'F' failing grade and will have to resubmit your work. Also, If your sources are not in MLA style, you will have 20 points deducted from the grade on the project!
