Tips:
Essays should be written as an Annotated Bibliography, an essay with proper citation and bibliography. For examples of annotated bibliographies, see Annotated Bibliography brief (Keep in mind that these samples are using different philosophy texts than you are using for this summer class, so do not copy from these examples. Use required readings to summarize philosophy theories).Your essay may be added to a larger list of Annotated Bibliographies ONLY if your essay has proper structure, sufficient explanation, accurate summaries of philosophical theories, citation and bibliography.
* This assignment assess your knowledge of philosophical theories. Make sure to explain sufficiently, as if you were teaching a friend the philosophy theory. Avoid general statements.
*Write second drafts as if you were going to publish. Read your post out loud to catch awkward sentences and grammar mistakes.
*STRUCTURE: It is very important to keep your paragraphs separate, as indicated in the instructions. Explain before you apply. I.e. explain the movie; then, explain a philosophy topic or theory we learned about in class, then APPLY these theories to the movie. See: Professional Writing Skills: Structure*Never copy and paste from a website. Plagiarized assignments will receive a 0. Use required resources to summarize philosophy theories.
Information on citation:
*ANY TIME YOU SUMMARIZE SOMEONE ELSE’S IDEAS YOU MUST CITE THE SOURCE. When you explain a movie, you must cite the reference (otherwise your reader won’t know where to look or what to watch).
*CITATIONS: should be added to the body of your text. Cite the producer and year, in the paragraph that explains a movie or television show. See the”APA HANDOUT”
A citation should look like this: (Authors last name, date, page number). If it is from a movie it must look like this: (Producer, date). You MUST cite and include bibliography!Assignments with no citations or bibliography will not be graded.*Include a bibliography, so that we can check it out as well. Use Purdue Owl for info on how to cite movies, websites, etc.: https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/560/11/(Links to an external site.)
Producer, P. P. (Producer), & Director, D. D. (Director). (Date of publication).Title of motion picture[Motion picture]. Country of origin: Studio or distributor.*For information on a movie or tv source (i.e., producer, studio, etc.) search for your movie in: https://www.imdb.com/ (Links to an external site.)Do not cite IMBD in your essay.philosophical
