The prewriting assignment in Week 1, Activity 10, is designed to help you begin preparing for your first essay. After completing various activities that involve reading Gabriel García Márquez’s “The Handsomest Drowned Man in the World,” exploring related scholarly articles, understanding primary and secondary sources, and learning how to formulate thesis statements and use MLA citations, you are now asked to engage in prewriting. This step involves reviewing the provided directions and analyzing sample essays and directions to understand how to structure your own work. The purpose of this prewriting assignment is to help you organize your thoughts and ideas before drafting your essay. It encourages you to critically engage with the text, the scholarly articles, and the essay-writing techniques you’ve learned, ensuring that your eventual essay is well-informed and thoughtfully constructed. This process serves as a foundation, guiding you in developing a clear thesis and effectively integrating evidence from both primary and secondary sources.

One thought on “Michal Piencioszko Discussion week 1 Eng201 sec 0505 – redo”
