Thesis Discussion - Alex (12 L), Juna (12 F), Sammy (12 A), Naufal (12 E) Empty Thesis Discussion - Alex (12 L), Juna (12 F), Sammy (12 A), Naufal (12 E)

1. Thesis Statement of the Paragraph
"Today, men are more and more conscious of maleness not as a fact but as a problem"

"The ways by which American men affirm their masculinity are uncertain and obscure."

Both sentence in the end brings the Thesis into the light that ends the paragraph, it's incomplete but using the logic would extend the last sentence.

2. The Hunger Games: Stronger Thesis
The Hunger Games is a science fiction adventure film based on the novel of the same name by Suzanne Collins. (Just a fact)

The Hunger Games is a morality tale about the dangers of a political system that is dominated by the wealthy. (Stronger thesis that represents the story)

3. Other Stronger Thesis
Finding a job is never easy, but it can be especially hard when the economy is still feeling the effects of a recession and employers are reluctant to hire new workers.
(Too Descriptive that brings in a downfall)

College students looking for part-time work should begin their search by taking advantage of job-finding resources on campus. (Simple and Calming)

4. Incorrect Statement

Thesis statement can be placed in the conclusion of the paper if its content presupposes it. (INCORRECT)

Technical terms or jargon should not be used in your thesis statement. (CORRECT)

When the author uses an implied thesis, the thesis isn't overtly stated in the article or essay. (INCORRECT)

5. True or False (Part 1)
The word "thesis" comes from Greek and Latin where it is a part of poetic and musical terminology; those words come from an even more ancient root: "dhe", meaning to set, or to put, used by the first people to ride domesticated horses about 6000 years ago. (TRUE)

6. True Or False (Part 2)
Thesis has no plural form, it is a non-count noun. (FALSE)

7. Strong Thesis & Why?
There have been over 200 movies about Count Dracula, most of them only very loosely based on the novel published by Bram Stoker in 1897.

Despite its title, Bram Stoker's Dracula, a film directed by Francis Ford Coppola, takes considerable liberties with Stoker's novel.

First is strong and effective, second is let loose from the first topic.

8. Difference between Thesis & Opinion?
Opinion: Personal thought
Thesis: Thoughts with Claims & Evidence

9. Difference between thesis, claim, argument, premise?
Thesis: Initial Statement
Claim: Backup For evidence
Argument: The opposite of the statement
Premise: The conclusion of a statement
