Assignment Prompt
For this assignment, you will be writing a compare/contrast essay–an exploratory piece of writing in which you attempt to show readers how two topics are similar, different, or a combination of the two: both similar and different. Whether you focusexclusively on comparing, exclusively on contrasting, or a mix of both, is totally up to you. However, regardless of which approach you decide to take, you will want to include a strong thesis/claim statement, at least three effective supporting points, and a streamlined point-by-point organizational strategy.
Assignment-Specific Requirements:
Length: This assignment should be at least 750 words.
Thesis: Underline your thesis statement or the main claim of your essay.
Sources Needed: Two reliable and credible sources are required for this assignment. Be sure to use MLA guidelines for all in-text and Works Cited citations.

4) Write a Reflection
Now that you have compiled at least some of your work into the ePortfolio, take a moment to look over what you’ve done and learned so far. Write a Reflection that addresses:
how the Critical Reading strategies have been working for you, and/or what you’ve learned from specific course readings so far
how the Imitation-based writing has gone for you; what do you think you’ve done well? what has been challenging? what would you like to continue working on?
anything you’ve gained from Office Hours, Discussions with your peers, Reflective writing, etc.?
any specific process assignments that you’ve found particularly useful? Why? How has that influenced your reading and/or writing in this course?
your goals, ideas, and/or questions for the Citizen Imitation; and more broadly speaking, if there are any resources that you think would be useful, feel free to mention those as well– I will use your feedback going forward!
Reflections like this (and the ones that you’ve written for your other process assignments) will be a big help later on as you’re developing your Portfolio Introduction.

Post one paragraph from your recent writing that contains a sentence in passive voice. Remember that in a passive voice, the subject of the sentence does not do an action; the subject of the sentence is acted upon.
Example: The meeting minutes are written by a different committee member each week.
In this passive sentence, the subject, “minutes,” does not do any writing. The minutes are writtenby committee members.
Then respond to the following:
Rewrite your sentence in active voice.
Example: A different committee member writes the meeting minutes each week.
Given the meaning and context of your particular sentence, which version is more effective: the active or the passive? Explain your answer.
