For this assignment, you will research, describe, and analyze a food trend. First, identify an interesting current or recent food trend. Then, gather information about it and organize the information in an informative essay, which should be about ½ to 2/3 of your essay.
Finally, you will need to analyze and generalize what this food trend says about the people participating in the trend, which should compromise the second half to 1/3 of your essay. In other words, why did the trend catch on? What need or desire that was previously lacking did the trend fulfill?
Another way to look at analyzing the trend is to describe what circumstances led to it catching on when it did. It is not enough for the analysis portion to just be a long conclusion or final thought. It needs to be a significant section of the essay. You will need to use organizational and transitional sentences to merge the two sections into one cohesive essay.
You will need to be careful with your treatment of your sources. This time, you will quote and summarize the sourced information. Either way, ALL sourced information requires in-text and full citations. Do not make the mistake of being careless with information you get from sources. Do NOT plagiarize.
Also, I expect you to use the sandwich technique as well as brackets, ellipses, and knowledge of sentence structure to normalize your words with the sourced words. In addition, I expect you to use the techniques and tools we have been practicing to summarize well when you include summarized information.
Of course, you will not include long summaries or full summaries. You will only include briefly summarized information in a sentence or two. That does not mean you lose the aspects and qualities of a good summary though.
Plus, you will follow APA conventions and rules of citation and formatting in this essay.
Finally, there is only one draft – a final draft. . It is time you prove you understand and can write an organized, clear, and cohesive essay without my feedback. I have been talking to you about the writing process all semester.
You need to go through the drafting, organizing, researching, revising, editing, and citing processes on your own. You must have a central thesis and controlling, clear topic sentences. Organization and clarity are the most important aspects of writing any academic essay. You must demonstrate that you know the basic parts of an essay and can include them without assistance.
