Feedback to Learner.Remenber that this class is advance writing class. Your outline is providing a great deal of information about cyberbullying… However, it is not clear how they support your thesis. Remember, a thesis statement is not a fact. It is an assertion/observation you have made on the topic. I think you should try to narrow the scope of your research… Your topic is Cyberbullying… What aspect of cyberbullying are you addressing? For example, are you looking at the cyberbully? What causes someone to become a cyberbully? Or are you looking at prevention? If so…then what are effective strategies in preventing cyberbullying? It will be easier for you if you come up with a research question.
Based on your research, your answer can help you form your thesis
statement. Remember, the paper is only 2 to 3 pages. You cannot write a whole book on the topic as you can write a book on it.Log on to LIRN (FNU Library database). you may go to fnu.edu and then look for the library. User name: 24439 Password: fnulibrary39 Use ProQuest….You will find a great deal of research on the topic of your choice.(The paper must be 2 to 3 pages, not including the Works Cited page). It MUST also be in MLA format. You will need to read the following chapters from your course textbook to prepare for your paper: Chapter 14: Preparing for a Research Project Chapter 15: Doing Research Chapter 16: Evaluating Sources and Taking Notes Chapter 17: Integrating Sources and Avoiding Plagiarism Chapter 18: Writing a Research Project It is important that you read these chapters carefully as they will help you with writing your research paper. I dont want the outline, I just submited that because you can see the mistakes that I made and dont do it again and you may have a base for the essay. I apreciate so much your help guys.
