This section included information about having examples, descriptions, definitions, and explaining a process in your paper. Since our current paper assignment pertains to comparing and contrasting, using these strategies can help bring out what you are trying to convey to your reader. The examples help provide illustrations and when a paper provides illustrations it helps it to be specific so you don't stray away from your topic. Descriptions would also be helpful in the essay and helps the reader visualize the words that are being described. Another strategy that can be used is having definitions which helps give meaning to words.
My essay will definitely include examples and descriptions. I will include examples of what made Mr. Huggins a good teacher and what made him a bad teacher. It will help my readers to either relate or see from my point of view what kind of teacher Mr. Huggins was. Descriptions will also be very useful because he was definitely one of a kind. I haven't thought of another teacher that I wanted to compare to Mr. Huggins yet. Since watching Stand and Deliver, I know that Mr. Escalante had a very good sense of humor that engaged his students and I think in some ways Mr. Huggins also possessed that quality. I am still on the fence about who to write about. I think I will wait until I watch Mona Lisa Smile.
Very good!
