York University Modern Social and Political Thought Study Essay
Description
All Informations and reading materials is upload for you.
The first part will be short answer questions asking you to identify the meaning, significance and issues connected to or raised by these concepts/ideas we have examined. The second and third parts consist of ONE essay question each .
PART 1
For the short answer questions remember that you need to identify & explain the definition/meaning of the term (its conditions & what it involves) and also Why it is important or significant? In other words, what issues/problems/conditions does it raise, produce or connected to?
Some of these will have more content in their definition or conditions than others and you can raise any number of issues and problems raised or connected to the term/phrase but make sure you identify the main or key ones.
PART 2& 3
You need to answer all parts of the question in a thorough and concise manner. Again you are looking to
identify and explain the key aspects in answering each part of the question.
For both part1 and part2&part 3:
So to use analogy, think of the questions as similar to playing baseball. You have to put your foot on and touch each base as you proceed around the field . Each base represents the key aspects of the question. (of course there are only four bases in baseball but more than that in these questions). In the same way you have to put your foot on the key aspects relevant to answer the question.
So to give an example if you spend all of your time on a short answer question on all the key aspects of the meaning and definition of a term but dont identify and explain its significance/issues/ problems its connected to then you have missed important key aspects of the question and have missed half of the question asked
In the essay questions, again you want to identify and explain the key aspects of each part of the question. Key aspects were discussed, explained and raised in the lectures. You can use both LECTURES AND READINGS and obviously your notes. Again, IF YOU SIMPLY COPY or REPRODUCE WHAT IS IN THE READINGS YOU WILL HAVE DIFFICULTY ANSWERING THE QUESTIONS ASKED. LECTURE MATERIAL (based on the readings but not reducible to them ) IS CRUCIAL SINCE THIS IS WHERE ALL THIS WAS DISCUSSED IN TERMS OF RELEVANCE FOR THIS COURSE.
You are expected to make use of course readings and lectures in formulating your answers. No bibliography is needed (see the other separate instruction sheets regarding this). USE COURSE MATERIAL ONLY. NO OUTSIDE SOURCES !!!
ANSWER LENGTH :
PART 1 )Answers to each short answer question should be a maximum of 1.5 pages double spaced (see
below)
PART 2) & PART 3) Answer to the essay questions should be a maximum of 3.5 pages double spaced (see below)
NO BIBLIOGRAPHY IS NECESSARY.
1)USE COURSE MATERIAL ONLY TO PREPARE YOUR ANSWERS.
2) WRITE OUT YOUR ANSWERS IN YOUR OWN WORDS TO INDICATE YOUR UNDERSTANDING OF THE MATERIAL. DO NOT MERELY COPY AND PASTE WHAT IS IN THE TEXTS/LECTURES.
3) HOWEVER, IF YOU SIMPLY COPY WHAT IS IN THE READINGS YOU WILL HAVE TO USE CITATIONS (APA). YOU WILL ALSO HAVE DIFFICULTY ANSWERING THE QUESTIONS ASKED.
4) LECTURE MATERIAL (based on the readings but not reducible to them ) IS CRUCIAL SINCE THIS IS WHERE ALL THIS WAS DISCUSSED IN TERMS OF RELEVANCE FOR THIS COURSE.
