A thesis statement focuses on the idea of the paper you are writing about. How to begin is the problem. You have so much jumping around in your head but how to you transform it to paper or to a word document? The thesis statement should tell the reader what you writing about. When you begin writing you want to say, it comes out just like you speak. Bad grammer is the word. I want to convience my readers that this university need to offer more night classes that benefit students who are in other programs besides nursing. This fall quarter I'm in one night class. The problem is the other classes I need to take are not offered during night hours. How do I transform this into a thesis statement? Signed Clueless.. Thats me.
For some reason it seems that when a thesis is a required assignment for a grade it seems harder because you want to put a lot of thought and effort into it, but it is a good idea to gather the thoughts/points of the paper together and just write your first paragraph or the whole paper even and then return to the first paragraph and see if you can pick out a singular sentence that sums up all you are talking about, and if not, just add one :) Good Luck
ReplyDeleteThesis is very hard for allot of people including me. How do you sum up your whole paper into two words. Its like you already know what you want to talk about, which is a great point. Sometimes when you feel clueless, just step back and regroup with fresh eyes and minds. That always seems to do me justice.
