NFG: Chapter One

Please review the suggestions for "Writing in Academic Contexts," as outlined in the blue titles that announce each paragraph of advice (3-7). Doing your best to follow those guidelines, write a response to Fareed Zakaria's Op-Ed piece entitled, "We have a bleak view of modern life. But the world is making real progress. Include a thesis sentence that agrees/disagrees/ or agrees but with his point in the article. Your response should be at least two paragraphs long, and it should have "Good reasons supported by evidence" as well as the other components of college writing outlined in the chapter.

Please write this on the "Writing Prompts" doc you created last class. List the title of the prompt ("NFG Chapter One") and today's date.
