\nASSIGNMENT GUIDELINES:
\nDevelop a total of 3 papers (an article each) of 2-3-pages long. Each paper must be typewritten with12-point font and double-spaced with standard margins. Follow APA format when referring to the selected articles or book chapters and include a reference page (not included in page limit). <\/p>\n
Papers should address key themes of the readings, and your analysis of the material. The papers should reflect your thoughts on the assigned readings: I want to see your integration of ideas, and your interpretation of issues. Do not summarize the content of the readings nor reflect on your feelings, but rather provide a point of view, a thesis, or an argument based on evidence from the readings, your own social work practice, and other experiences. <\/p>\n
Some key steps to writing an analysis paper:
\nRead the chosen articles
\nSummarize the articles (If you stopped here, you would be submitting a summary paper.)
\n3. Reflect on what the articles mean to you, what thoughts or feelings were GENERATED. (If you stopped here, you would be submitting a reflection paper.)
\n? What is your reaction to the content of the articles?
\n? How do the articles relate to one another?
\n? What did you learn about violence & abuse in childhood?
\nNow you are ready to begin writing your analysis paper. Create a thesis statement or argument that you will defend using the articles to justify your points. In essence, you take a stance on a particular issue, supported by 3-4 points supported by the literature. Your thesis statement is often the last sentence of your opening introductory paragraph. Often, your thesis statement will be a ?should? statement (e.g. social workers should take a feminist perspective when talking about the cause of physical abuse). You then make your 3-4 points, using the literature to support your argument and linking the paragraphs together to make one seamless argument.
\nConclude with a summary of your argument and your major points as well as a BRIEF discussion of how your argument impacts the clients you serve.<\/p>\n
Evaluation will be based on how clearly you respond to the above, in particular:<\/p>\n
a) The clarity with which you critique the articles;
\nb) The depth, scope, and organization of your paper; and,
\nc) Your conclusions, including a description of the impact of these articles on your thoughts about family violence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
