Note: Do not use outside sources for this assignment. Choose only a topic that you know enough information about so that you can compare and contrast it without performing research.
The next step in the writing process is to take your outline and the feedback you received from your instructor about your outline and turn it into an actual essay. As you learned in your e-text reading, an essay is a piece of writing that focuses on one main idea. You will:
(1) Revise your outline based on feedback from instructor.
(2) Create a Word document and use the outline to write a well-organized, correctly-structured essay.
(3) Use the Revision Worksheet to revise your essay.
(4) Revise again. Then revise again.
(5) Submit the essay to Grammarly for assessment and revise based on results.
(6) Submit the final draft of your essay and the Grammarly score to the Unit 5 dropbox for grading.
(1) Open the outline you submitted last week. Revise it, if needed, using your instructor’s feedback as a guide. Save the changes and, if you’re able, print it out. It’s always best to work from a printed copy.
(2) Then, create a new MS Word document named E1_YourLastName_YourFirstName. Set up the formatting to match APA standards. (USLO 5.1)
To create your essay, take each point in your outline and turn it into one or two complete sentences. Remember to take any feedback provided by your instructor for your outline assignment and apply it to your essay draft.
Your essay should at least 1000 words long and should follow all conventions of grammar, style, structure, and organization discussed in this course.
Remember, too, how this paper should be structured. You should have an introductory paragraph that introduces the reader to the topic and ends with a thesis statement (if you need to, review the Creating an Effective Introductory Paragraph (Links to an external site.) in your e-text). Then, your essay should have several body paragraphs, each making one point the directly relates to the thesis statement. Finally, wrap up your paper with a concluding paragraph (if you need to, review Creating an Effective Conclusion for a Multi-Paragraph Essay (Links to an external site.) in your e-text).
(3) Once you have a draft of your essay written, save and print it. Using the Revision Worksheet.docx 
download, revise and edit your paper (a printed copy and colored pens work best here). Then, make the necessary changes in the electronic version. (USLO 5.1, 5.2)
(4) Save whatever changes you made in the previous step and print again — then repeat the process. You want to revise and edit your paper no less than three times, making sure you check every item on the Revision Worksheet against your paper. You want the final draft to be as polished and professional as possible. Of course, multiple revisions require good time management on the part of the writer, so be sure to plan ahead! Also, review the Revising, Editing, and Proofreading (Links to an external site.) chapter in your e-text as you work. (USLO 5.1, 5.2)
(5) Make sure that the changes from all of your revisions have been saved, then submit the file to Grammarly for review. Download the Grammarly report when you’re done making changes in Grammarly; you will submit this report along with the final draft of your paper (note: the Grammarly score will not match your grade for this essay, as Grammarly is only looking for grammar and style issues, and your professor is looking for a much wider range of issues in your writing). You can make changes directly in Grammarly, then download the file back to MS Word with the revisions. The file name will include .edited after you’ve downloaded it from Grammarly. Watch Grammarly Instructions for Students (Links to an external site.) for instructions on how to do this properly.
(6) Once you’re sure that the paper is ready to be graded (checking the grading rubric at this point is a great idea), make sure you’ve saved all your changes and submit it as an attachment here. Also, attach your Grammarly report. (note: the Grammarly score will not match your grade for this essay, as Grammarly is only looking for grammar and style issues, and your professor is looking for a much wider range of issues in your writing). To be clear: Upload both the final draft of your essay and your Grammarly report before submitting the essay for grading. rhanes_roshawnda_outline_compare-contrast.docxComments:
