Introduction (150-175 words)
- Purpose of the Introduction: The introduction should present the topic, highlight its significance, and provide an overview of the essay’s approach.
- Key Elements:
- Introduce the topic and explain its relevance.
- State the aim of the essay (e.g., a critical analysis and evaluation of 2-3 strategies).
- Provide a brief outline of the essay structure, mentioning the strategies to be discussed and the order in which they will be addressed (e.g., “This essay will first…, then…, and finally…”).
2. Main Body
The main body should be divided into clear sections, each focusing on one strategy. The following points outline what each section should include:
- a. Clear Organization:
- Each section should begin with a topic sentence summarizing the main idea of that section.
- Use logical transitions between sections to ensure cohesion, employing linking words and phrases effectively.
- b. Critical Analysis of Each Strategy:
- Description of the Strategy: Explain how the strategy works, where it is applied, and its objectives.
- Strengths: Discuss the positive effects or successes of the strategy, supported by evidence (e.g., studies, reports, statistics).
- Weaknesses and Limitations: Address the challenges, drawbacks, or potential negative outcomes of the strategy. Consider whether alternative approaches might be more effective.
- c. Integration of Sources:
- Use recent and credible sources (post-2017) to substantiate arguments.
- Synthesize information from different sources to create a coherent discussion, rather than simply listing facts.
- d. Academic Style and Neutral Tone:
- Avoid personal opinions or emotional language.
- Use precise and formal expressions without contractions.
- Ensure accurate citation and adherence to academic writing standards.
3. Conclusion Not Required
- Since the essay does not require a conclusion, ensure that the main body sections comprehensively address the topic and leave no significant points unexplored.
- The essay should naturally conclude by fully evaluating each strategy, so no additional summary or closing remarks are necessary.
Use of language (grammatical range, accuracy, sytsle) is the most important point. Showing knowledge of sentence and word structure in contemporary academic English
