For paper 3, you will write an extended definition, 3 (full) – 5 pages that define one of the words  / terms above. A definition essay does far more than provide a technical and basic dictionary definition; it will give a more thorough idea about what characterizes the word, where it is found, what it is not, etc.

There are many strategies to extend a definition and provide a clear idea about meaning:

• You can begin with a dictionary definition.
• Consider the origins of the word. When did it begin? First records?
• Identify whether or not the word’s meaning has changed or evolved over time.
• Explain how it works. (if it has a process).
• Define by negation (say what it is NOT).
• Associate the word with key people, places, or events.
• Compare and contrast the word with other familiar words.
• Give examples.
• Describe the term.

A Thesis for a definition paper will avoid phrases such as “is when” or “is where”.

You must conduct research before you can provide an accurate and complete definition.
While your first response may be to search Google or another Internet site, I strongly suggest you visit the Mt. SAC Library’s databases first. These database are like search engines, yet they are more refined and not publically accessible.

• Go to library.mtsac.edu
• Click the Databases tab
• If you are using a computer off-campus, you’ll need to enter your portal ID and password.
• Click “search our databases by title”
• Search the various databases (and descriptions). My suggestions:
  • Academic Search Premiere
  • CQ Researcher
  • Issues & Controversies (Facts on File)
  • Once you click on a database, enter search words. You may need to vary the word(s) and phrases you use to search your topic.
  • Keep track of the sources you used. You will need to cite the source and create a works cited page.

You will be borrowing information. This is NOT the time to forget how to quote borrowed words and provide in-text parenthetical citations for borrowed words AND ideas.
