word-level accuracy: this includes things such as proper capitalization, spelling, word-tense, and usage.

Social Issue: Education and Empowerment
Topic:
Education and Empowerment
Thesis:
Contrary to popular opinion, education does not always lead to empowerment.
Reasons:
(1) Everyone does not have access to a quality education.
(2) Even with a quality education, lucrative employment opportunities are not guaranteed.
(3) Educated individuals may still face discrimination and other inequities that limit opportunities for success.
Entry #1

Anyon, J. (2016). Social class and the hidden curriculum of work. In G. Columbo (Ed.), Rereading America: Cultural Contexts for Critical Thinking and Writing (10th ed.) (pp. 136-153). Boston, MA: Bedford St. Martin’s.
Quote:
“Basil Bernstein, Pierre Bourdieu, and Michael W. Apple, focusing on school knowledge, have argued that knowledge and skills leading to social power and regard (medical, legal, managerial) are made available to the advantaged social groups but are withheld from the working classes, to whom a more 'practical curriculum' is offered (manual skills, clerical knowledge) ” (Anyon, 2016, p. 137).
Paraphrase:
Several researchers have pointed out that schools provide upper class students with the knowledge and skills needed for prestigious occupations. Such knowledge and skills are not given to students in the working class. Working class students are only provided with knowledge and skills for manual and clerical jobs (Anyon, 2016).
Explanation of quote selection and connection:
I selected this quote because it illustrates the difference in the quality of education students from various social class backgrounds receive. In order to get a high quality education that leads to well-paying jobs, you have to be a student from an upper class family. Without access to a quality education, it is impossible to have opportunities for success. Education will only empower those students who are lucky enough to receive a quality education.
