Have a few questions about context: (expository, ID+B)
- Is it alright if you include hardly/zero quotes, but actually include references.events from selected texts and other examples?
- How many references do we need to make to the text we studied? Once per paragraph, or?
- Can we include inclusive language like we/us/our?
- Anyone have any external sources for identity and belonging?
- Can you make up sources? Like make up a book and make up a story (this is all for expository)
1) Totally fine to have no quotes at all from your Context text. Reference the ideas, and try to talk about what the text has to say about the prompt - that's all you need.
2) At least one overt, in-depth discussion, preferably in your first B.P. Everything after that is optional, but don't make the majority of your essay about the text, or it might feel limited. Longer explanation
here3) Yes, inclusive language is fine, and even recommended sometimes to avoid constantly having to say 'one' or 'people'
4) Use what you're familiar with, or consider some of
these, but don't stress yourself out tonight trying to memorise a bunch of new stuff. Focus on refining what you know, and making that as good as it can be.
5) Technically yes, but it'd be far better if you used the sources at your disposal. You won't actually be fact-checked, but it can get messy if you're trying to make up an example while you're analysing its connection to the ideas in the prompt. Actual real-world stuff will probably make for stronger discussion anyway.
