What are some ways that learners can harness the power of the mind to optimize learning
In a four-page, Times New Roman font essay with page numbers (no cover page), choose ONE of the following topics to write your essay on.
1. Argue that the brain is a powerful tool and support your position with evidence from several of the articles.
2. What are some ways (as many as you want, but at least 2) that learners can harness the power of the mind to optimize learning? Support your position with evidence from several of the articles.
You should feel free to change the wording as you like/need to make your point. It is usually easiest to create three reasons for a thesis in order to create three solid body paragraphs. Your Works Cited does not count as a page. If you are having trouble getting to four pages, read ahead on the short West Guide chapters (13 & 14) on Introduction and Conclusion, and see if you can add some “meat” to your essay there.
Your essay must include:
- Introduction
- body paragraphs with topic sentences that link to thesis
- conclusion
- quotes from the articles* (2-3 quotes/paragraphs per paragraph is ideal) -Quotes should not exceed 3 lines more than once
- a Works Cited page
Guidelines
Use examples and quotes from the articles to support your assertions. At the end of every sentence in which you use a quote, put a citation.
Make sure that your essay has an introduction, conclusion, and topic sentences for body paragraphs. These concepts are addressed in modules and in The West Guide.
One way to introduce a quote is to use a signal phrase.
Sample Signal Phrase: According to Eric Jensen, “blah blah blah…”
You can read more about signal phrases in the West Guide p.360,
or Google “signal phrases” if you don’t have the book.
