Draft the Thesis Your evaluation in a sentence

 

Overview

 

In this step, you focus your argument by writing your thesis—that is, your evaluation the main source expressed in a single clear sentence.

The thesis: Your argument in one sentence

The thesis is a clear, straightforward statement of your evaluation of the main source, expressed in one sentence (or rarely, two—and two at most). It summarizes everything you say in the response section of your essay.

Please watch this video it will help you how to write a thesis statement 

 

Sample Thesis Statements

If the main source is a narrative:

Conner’s narrative is highly relevant and significant today because it opens the way to better understanding important aspects of transgender experience, such as the fear and anxiety of provoked by an often hostile world, and the complications of becoming romantically involved with a cisgender person.

If the main source is an argument:

Colier’s article identifies a real problem–overuse of technology–but her argument is not as rigorous as others’ in terms of the influence of technology on mental health and of the need to mitigate its negative consequences.

 

Relation of the Thesis to the Response Section

The thesis emerges from the response. It is a one-sentence summary of your evaluation of your main source, as articulated in the response section of your essay.

To come up with your thesis, ask yourself what your critical response is to your main source, based on the work you’ve done so far on this project and your recent research. To develop your thesis, track the development of your response as you draft and revise the essay.

Why the Thesis Is Provisional

This first version of the thesis is “provisional,” meaning temporary and subject to change. As you draft and revise your essay, your argument is likely to change in ways large or small because you will be working with textual evidence from your sources—i.e., developing your response.

It’s important to remain open to fresh discoveries and changes all the way up to the final submission of the project.

Having said that, it’s a good idea to get it clear in your head what you’re planning to argue so that you can focus your work throughout the drafting process.
