You must provide a thesis statement on PREDATORY LENDING (2008 HOUSING CRASH).
You will prepare a 3 – 4 page(s) essay one of the listed topics below. Your essay should include the following:
· Title Page (this is not included in the 3 to 4 pages count required)
· References/Bibliography (this is not included in the 3 to 4 pages count required)
· APA style format (12-point Times New Roman, 1 inch margins double-spaced)
Introduction
· This is where you introduce the topic you’re discussing in your essay and briefly summarize the points you’ll make in the paragraphs that follow.
· This is also where you state your thesis. Your thesis statement is the most important part of your essay because it’s the point you’re making. It needs to take a clear stance and shouldn’t include hedging language that undermines that stance like “seems to” or “possibly could.”
Main body
· Decide on the most logical order of your paragraphs – this might be important, chronology or causation, but the basic flow should be simple and clear.
· Each paragraph should clearly provide information that addresses the thesis statement itself – they should make sense one after the other and provide a summary of your topic.
· Be specific, not general. The more detail you can bring in, the more expert you will sound and the more persuasive your argument will be
Conclusion
· In your essay’s conclusion paragraph, you summarize the points you made and bring your essay to its logical conclusion.
· Because your reader is now familiar with your thesis, the summary in your conclusion paragraph can be more direct and conclusive than the one in your intro paragraph.
· Also, you can give your opinion
Bibliography/References
· List the all books / articles / data, etc. you read while researching information on your topic
