\nBACKGROUND INFORMATION ABOUT THE ESSAY: The Cause and Effect Essay can either examine the cause, the effect, or both the cause and effect of an event. We will examine both the cause and the effect in this essay. Learn more about this writing approach in Successful College Writing, p. 473 \u2013 500. See p. 486 as an organizational guide.<\/p>\n
\nIn society, events happen that impact other aspects of an individual\u2019s life. Reflect upon a problematic causal relationship, such as a government shutdown, an electrical fire, a car crash, a home invasion, a sprained ankle, etc.
\nIn an extended essay, examine the cause (or the issue), the resulting effect(s), and preventions. Choose from the options above in yellow or select another problematic event as the focus for your essay. Use two or more secondary resources to support your claims about the effects of the problematic event and to research ways to take precautions to avoid such a problem (or to endure the effects).
\nTips: If your topic is a power outage, consider the effects of a power outage. Research either online or at a local library to find two or more reliable resources on the effects of a power outage that would support your claims about the effects and ways to prevent them or survive them.<\/p>\n
\n\u2022 You will have three body paragraphs for this essay. Body paragraph 1 will focus on discussing the cause or the problematic event\/issue. Body paragraph 2 will focus on the effects or the outcomes. Body paragraph 3 will present safeguards or preventative steps that can be taken to try to prevent the event from happening again. Note: If there are no preventions or the event is uncontrollable, then body paragraph 3 will focus on ways to live with the resulting condition. Be sure to use evidence in body paragraph 2 and 3 only.
\nYour essay should be in MLA format:
\n\u200bOrganized MLA heading, content-specific title, page numbers
\nDouble spaced
\n\u200b1-inch margins (top, bottom, sides)
\n\u200bTimes New Roman (font); size 12
\n\u200bIndented paragraphs (use the tab key, not the space bar)
\nSoftware Requirement: Microsoft Word
\nWord Limit: 500 words — Note: Go beyond 500 words\u2014since 500 is the minimum word count limit. (Here\u2019s how to identify the total number of words: *Highlight from the start of the introduction to the end of the last line of the conclusion to check the word count. In Microsoft Word, the number is shown in the bottom left corner of the screen after the text is highlighted. It is okay to exceed the word count limit by 100 to 200 words.<\/p>\n
\nOutline required: Yes (A sentence outline is required. It will be the first page of your essay; it will not have page number. The page number will start on the first page of the essay.) Outlining was introduced in week 2 (Module 2) of this course.
\nWorks cited required<\/strong>: Yes Do your best in creating a Works Cited page for this essay. Refer to Rules for Writers, p. 532 to see a model. You will have at least 2 citations on the page. Notice the formatting of the page: the title and the page number (the page number should be continuous with the rest of the pages of your essay). If no works cited is submitted, then your essay will not be reliable, and it will receive an automatic zero.
\nPlagiarism Check (SafeAssign): When the essay is submitted, it will automatically be scanned for plagiarism through SafeAssign. No action needs to be taken on your part.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
