quickwrite 10/20
One thing that I will take from the reading from chapter 4 of the research book will be the importance of a clear cut thesis statement. There was a section that really stressed how refining your thesis statement will greatly benefit you because it is essentially a preview of your paper in one sentence. Some of the tips given were that it is important to know when you want to have an arguable thesis statement or not depending on the type of paper. It is also important to not let the statement be too broad or obvious. The statement should be directly related to your topic without any misleading or unnecessary information.

I also found his explanations on how to write a thesis very helpful. As you stated there are many different aspects that can affect how effective your thesis is. I think when im writing i generally make my thesis to obvious, and after reading this chapter i will now be conscious not to do this.
