Moorpark College Is Marijuana Use Medicinal Thesis Statement Writing Question

I’m working on a writing multi-part question and need a sample draft to help me understand better.

Write a thesis statement about any of the following prompts

Create an MLA formatted document and include the following

1. Indicate which prompt you chose
2. Include your clearly labeled thesis statement (a response to the prompt question you chose)
3. Include an explanatory note underneath your thesis that begins: What I want the reader to understand as a result of reading this literary analysis essay is…
4. Conclude with an honest, direct assessment of your thesis draft (4 to 6 sentences) that evaluates your thesis draft based on the following four criteria:
   • The narrowness of the FOCUS
     • • Does the thesis attempt to cover too broad a territory, or is it sufficiently narrow?
   • The SPECIFICITY of the language
     • • How committed and specific and precise is the thesis language? Is the verb vague and noncommittal?
   • The degree to which it is an ARGUABLE claim
     • • Is this thesis plot summary, description, or otherwise a statement of the obvious? Or does it make an interpretive claim that will facilitate an analytical argument?
   • Whether it is a UNIFIED thesis
     • • Does it make a claim that is a singular idea, or is it a list of items?
