Assignment 2: Finding the Main Idea and Creating a Response to It

Main ideas and thesis sentences are really two sides of the same coin. Writers create thesis sentences. Readers pick out the main idea from what they read, which is usually the thesis sentence of the writer.

Locate one additional article related to one of this week’s case study topics, other than the one you used in Week 1 Discussion.

• Complete the Source Quality Rating Document found in the Week 1 Learning Resources.
• Determine the main idea of the article. What is the author arguing?
• After you have determined the main idea of the article, craft your own thesis in response to the article’s main idea. You may create a thesis statement which agrees with the article’s main idea, or you may create a thesis statement which disagrees with the article’s main idea.
• Once you have created your own thesis statement, develop a full sentence outline which supports your thesis.
• Please see the sample Week 1 Assignment 2 document, located in the Week 1 Learning Resources. This document shows the required elements of this assignment.
• Be sure to provide attribution, using APA formatting, for any sources used.
