Order instructions
In an essay of 4 to 6 pages (1,000 to 1,500 words), please answer the following question by July 19 (6:00 pm). I expect you to write your essay based on the assigned readings, on class forums, and on lectures and other video materials presented on the web site. I do not expect you to supplement these sources with outside research.
I also expect you to provide appropriate citations to your sources. If this is the text, you should use parenthetical endnoting with specific page references (e.g. Ginsberg, et. al. 2014: 41). If you are citing a lecture, you should provide the lecture number. Videos should be named using the title from the web page. Please cite forum posts by the author’s name and the date of the post.
Analytical Essay #2
Reflecting on the outcome of the 2016 Presidential election, the authors of the text assert: “The events of 2016 also raised major questions about the future of America’s political parties and the viability of America’s electoral processes” (Ginsberg et. al. 2017: 233). In an essay, describe the roles that political parties and candidate characteristics play in mobilizing electoral participation in contemporary U.S. elections and analyze how individual characteristics of voters (such as socioeconomic status), political socialization, electoral laws, and electoral rules influence voting likelihood. Where possible use examples from the 2012, 2014, and 2016 campaigns for national office discussed in the assigned text and in the lectures/video supplements.
P/s:
I did Analytical essay #1. BUT I JUST GOT 60/100.
I’ll send you “analytical essay #1” that I did, and the comments of my professor.
I want you to read carefully the file “Weeks 1,2,3,4″ that includes all the lectures and the videos of this class. You need to use them to do this analytical essay.
This is my teacher feedback from my analytical essay #1:
” Your paper needs a lot more description of both the Articles of Confederation and the U.S. Constitution. There was also no analysis of the connection between the two constitutions. You did not draw from the lecture or the text. Half of this paper was not addressing the prompt.
I would add that you need a clear thesis to organize your essays. As you begin to think about analytical essay #2, I would encourage you to craft a thesis that you think organizes your answer to the prompt and collect evidence from both the assigned text and the lectures/supplemental videos that you can use to defend the thesis.
I am also unclear on some of your citations — such as the citation to the Edmund Pettus at the end your second sentence.”
Please read carefully requirements before you do it and send it back to me as soon as possible. Thank you for helping me. :)
