FIRST:   Summarize in 150-200 words the article your instructor has chosen from the assignment.  Please use "Working at McDonald's" from the bottom of page 247 through the top of page 250 on your 11th edition textbook.  In this summary, you should relay the article’s main points, completely and accurately, in your own words.  If you find yourself in a situation in which the author’s words needed to be quoted directly (perhaps for emphasis), you must make it clear that these words are the author’s by using quotation marks appropriately.  You will not want to quote anything over one sentence in length, and you will want to limit yourself to no more than 2-3 direct quotes, if you use any at all.  Remember that the whole point of this portion of the assignment is for you to restate the author’s points objectively in your own words. In general, I recommend you structure your first sentence something like this:            In "Working at McDonald's," Amitai Etzioni argues that... This will function as the thesis statement of your summary, so this first sentence will need to convey the main point(s) of the article to give your reader an overall view. Second:   Write a two page (minimum of 400-500 words) response to the article your instructor has chosen from the assignment. Please use "Working at McDonald's" from the bottom of page 247 through the top of page 250 on your 11th edition textbook. Before you even begin drafting, you will want to decide on the terms of your response.  Once you decide on the terms (or grounds) of your response, you’ll want to figure out how you can support your points—using logic, outside evidence—whatever is appropriate.  Your response cannot be based on simply your opinion about the issue. NOTE: Quote only from the article!!  ------ in 50 words answer this question (not in the same word file, so it'll will be two files one for the essay and second for this small question)  Do you think "Working at McDonald's" was successful or not--or some combination of the two?  What strategies do you plan to use so that you can write an effective critical analysis of the Etzioni's article, keeping the focus on the relative success of the article as a piece of writing (rather than just expressing your opinions on the issue at hand)?
