When answering these essay questions please do the following three things:
- Answer ALL elements of the question. If the question has two or three parts, be sure to answer every part of the prompt.
- Refer to the texts and videos we have used this term–but do so IN YOUR OWN WORDS.
- Give examples to illustrate your understanding. It is not enough to simply explain the concept or idea in the prompt, you should give examples to show that you have a solid understanding of the material.
