    For week 3 you have an option between a Reflection Essay or a Memoir Essay. To prepare for the genres, read the  relevant sections of the  NFG (pp 256ff for the Reflection; and pp. 224ff for the Memoir). Students of traditional college age might find the Reflection to be a more manageable essay; but don’t shy away from the memoir  if you have a good idea for it. You might also find it helpful to read the sample essays of each type in the text.

    One of the Week 3 learning focuses is on introductions and conclusions.  So after reading the NFG chapter on those two structural parts of an essay (and the instructor lecturette), incorporate into your Reflection or Memoir one of the standard ways of entering and exiting an essay. (In subsequent assignments, you will be asked to attempt other intro-conclusion styles).

    The assignment is to be submitted as a Word document or the equivalent. Observe the standard MLA format of double-spacing, 1 inch margins, and 12 point Arial, Times New Roman, or Verdana font.

    If you have general questions, post them to the  Q&A Forum. If you have questions specific to your own essay, you may send me an email.

    The assignment should be around 750-1000 words and is worth 20 points. It is due by 11/8/20, 11:59 PM.
