Georgia State University Marriage and A High Possibility of A Ruined Life Essay

1. This week, you are working on your correlation essay. The assignment sheet is in this week’s folder. You are required to use three different pieces of numerical data in your essay. You will need to find the research on your own. Read the article I’ve posted in this week’s folder to help with brainstorming.

2. You are NOT creating a works cited page for this assignment. Instead, simply include the sources in each body paragraph with a signal phrase. Use the student essay I posted in the week 5 folder as an example to follow.

3. After you have read over the assignment sheet several times, take a look at the link for the Pew Research Center in this week’s folder. You have the entire week to work on the essay, so take your time with finding good numerical data. You are not required to use the Pew Research Center, but there are many different articles on the website about all different aspects of marriage. You might find what you’re looking for. Remember, you are not looking for proof. You are looking for data that “supports” the correlation you are explaining.
