Learning Outcomes

In this chapter we will:

• Determine the scholarly conversation that best defines and supports your approach to your subject.
•  Decide what primary evidence you should analyze first and what scholarly support best develops your reading of the evidence.
•  Use your primary and secondary sources effectively, never letting cited passages stand alone and showing how your sources support your argument.
• Develop transitions from one argument to another and from one scholarly source to another so that your ideas progress in a logical way.
