Essay Three
[Noteyour essay should be set up in MLA format with proper spacing and headers.]
Essay 3: An argument about literature800-900 words. (12.5% of final average) Use the sample essays on the web page as models; however, remember that I require you to use proper MLA form to document quotes and write a works-cited entry. Because some of the sample essays were written before MLA rules changed, the citations may not be correctmake certain that your handbook has the latest MLA updates. Pay attention to announcements and emails because the proper format will be provided as the due dates for sources and for the essay approach.
Topic: Write a well-developed literary argument that analyzes some aspect of the following story Dsires Baby ,
Your essay must include specific examples and direct quotations from the story you chose (your primary source) and from an article from the librarys databases that will serve as a scholarly secondary source. Your objective is to find an aspect of the story that is worth writing about. As you read, ask yourself questions about the story that might help you generate good essay topics. With the points that you use from the story, you want to tell why the information is important and how the information proves your thesis. Make sure that your thesis is arguable and that you prove your thesis. As you write, make certain that you are truly analyzing the story, not writing a summary of the storys events.
Your secondary source does not have to deal directly with your primary source: it can deal with the aspect of the primary source that you choose to consider (for example, if you are writing about Armands racism in Dsires Baby, you could find an article on interracial marriage before the Civil War). However, your secondary source must be a scholarly article from one of the GCSC library databases. Remember to submit the source by its due date. If the source is not submitted, ten points will be taken from the essays grade.
Look over the writing checklist on the course web page for other stylistic concerns. Keep in mind that the story is your focus.
This essay must contain proper in-text citations and a works-cited page. Secondary source materials must be submitted a week before the essay is due. Make certain that you post the required paragraphs on the discussion board. Not posting your paragraphs or submitting the source by the dates on the study schedule will result in your losing ten points from your essays grade.
Your essay must be original; no essay submitted for another course will be accepted for this assignment.
Make sure that you do the following in your essay:
1. INTRODUCTORY PARAGRAPH
Introduce the author and title of the story that you have chosen as the basis for your argument.
Your thesis must be an arguable statement that tells what you are going to prove about the story you have chosen. This statement must appear as the last sentence of your introductory paragraph. In order to make sure that your thesis is arguable, you might want to begin the sentence with because or although.
2. BODY PARAGRAPHS
Each aspect or element of your evaluation should be developed in a paragraph, with a topic sentence, explanation, and specific examples. Make certain that your explanation of the examples that you use from the story is always longer than the example. In other words, the bulk of the writing should be an explanation of how your examples prove your thesis. Double check all of the information you present to ensure that you are not writing just plot summary. Remember that your goal is to examine why events occur rather than retelling what the events are.
Be certain to include parenthetical documentation after each quotation from the story and after each idea that you borrow from a secondary source. Keep in mind that your secondary source must be a scholarly journal article from the librarys databases.
Make certain that you have your student identification number handy when you attempt to access the databases (given the nature of this particular essay, you might want to check Academic Search Complete, Literary Reference Center Plus, or JStor first when looking for information on a story).
We also have access to MLA citation guides on the library’s website at under the citation information.
3. CONCLUDING PARAGRAPH
Offer a well-developed paragraph that reflects all the evidence in your paper.
4. SET UP
Make certain that your essay follows the set up shown on the template.
Times New Roman twelve-point font must be usedcheck all parts of your essay from the header through the works-cited page to make certain that your font is consistent
One-inch margins on each edge of the page
Header (your last name and page number) half an inch from the upper right corner of each page
Heading on the first page in the proper order with the proper information
Double spaced with no extra spaces within the essay
Proper in-text citations used for quotations from the primary source (the story you have chosen) and any information learned from your scholarly secondary source (the article from the librarys database)double check all class information to make certain your citations are correct
Look at the information on the writing checklist posted under course documents for stylistic help with composing your essay
A works-cited page at the end of the essay that cites the story and secondary source utilizing proper MLA citation
Your secondary source must be submitted at least a week before the essays due dateI do not want a description of the source or a works-cited page (that page will be the last page of your actual essay); I want the actual source. Submit a copy of the source in the drop box labeled sources for essay three. Whether your source is a .pdf file or an html file, you can save the file to your computer and upload it in the drop box.
Post your paragraphs on the unit discussion board and submit your secondary sources in the drop box by the due dates to avoid losing points on the essay
Objective of Assignment
Analyze human resources demand to create a forecast using quantitative and qualitative techniques.
Use strategies to forecast internal human resources supply.

Case Incident on page 129
Instructions
Part 1 and 3
Part 1 of the HR Project is a draft of your final paper and is due on Sunday of Unit 10. Part 3 of the HR Project is the final paper that is due on Sunday of Unit 11. There is no credit for the draft, but you will receive feedback from your instructor on what you need to include in your final paper and your presentation to ensure a comprehensive plan. In preparing Part 3 of your plan, you will incorporate what you learn from your instructors feedback on your draft and from your colleagues discussion of your presentation.
Conduct research in order to get information to address the following questions (# 1 and 2) from page 129 of the course textbook. Ensure you use some of the qualitative and quantitative techniques described in the course textbook to help formulate your answers. Include at least two scholarly sources.
Using your HR planning expertise, forecast the demand of labour in the stores and the online environment over the next three years.
Assuming an annual 15 percent turnover level of in-store workers and a 30 percent turnover level of online-focussed employees, determine overall HR supply estimates over the next three years.
Report the number of employees that will be surplus or shortages for each part of the business and for each year.
Report the numbers of any employees that will need to be terminated each year and the services that should be provided for them.
Additionally, provide some suggestions of activities you could engage in to determine supply details by internal vs. external candidates.
You are to gather the information and write a business report which documents the results of your research above and presents it in a logical manner for senior management of the franchise.
Your report must be concise (Maximum of 2000 words double spaced, 12-point font excluding cover page and references page).
It must be well-written, but in lay terms so anyone can fully understand your reasoning. Follow APA format and include a proper introduction that clearly outlines the purpose and flow of the essay, and a strong conclusion are important elements.
You must also provide a properly cited reference page at the end of the report to support any of your conclusions.
You must also provide appropriate academic references (minimum 2) to support your conclusions or recommendations to the owner. They should be vetted journal articles and company prospectus information rather than Internet sources.
Remember, your objective is to provide an analysis on the labour forecast and turnover for the franchise owner, not simply to answer a series of questions. The questions are to help you focus your research. Your overall grade will reflect the strength of your analysis.
Submit your executive summary as a Word (or other compatible text editor) document through the Submit button below no later than 11:00 p.m. on Sunday of Unit 11.
Part 2
Use the research sources that you found in Part 1 in order to get information to address the following questions:
Do you forecast a labour shortage or surplus?
Develop a clear plan to help address the forecast labour shortage or surplus.
NOTE: your plan will need to include three strategies that focus on at least two of the following areas of HR: Training, Career Development, Total Rewards, and Turnover Management.
1) Your assignment is to create a strong THESIS STATEMENT to the question below.
2) Prepare a compelling SUPPORTING ARGUMENT that helps prove (support) your Thesis Statement. Ask yourself what is the most compelling reason I believe I am correct in my assertion (my thesis statement)? What elements in the documents in Gorn Ch. 4 might defend your thesis? Prepare a list of points that favor/support your claim and ones that refute it
3) From the list you compiled, select THREE supporting pieces of evidence from three separate documents in Gorn Ch. 4 (the Declaration of Independence CANNOT be one of the three supporting documents, but you are allowed to reference it). Briefly explain how each piece of evidence supports your argument and subsequently proves your thesis.
THE QUESTION YOU MUST ADDRESS: Based on the various viewpoints expressed in the documents in Gorn Ch. 4, how “inclusive” was the the Declaration of Independence in the thoughts expressed by the colonists?
Your completed assignment should look like this:
1.) THESIS STATEMENT: place your grammatically correct thesis statement, in the third person, here.
2.) SUPPORTING ARGUMENT: place you supporting argument here.
A.) EVIDENCE: place the title of the first document you are using for supporting evidence here.
i.) RATIONALE: state why you think this evidence supports your argument and state what type of evidence it is: Ethos, Pathos, or Logos. Try to use at least two of these three types of evidence.
B.) EVIDENCE: place the title of your second supporting document here.
i.) RATIONALE: state why and what type of evidence
C.) EVIDENCE: place the title of your third supporting document here.
