Thesis

After reading this article, I thought differently on the word "thesis". In high school, I was taught that the word thesis was just a simple, main idea that each body paragraph was based off of. Thesis is not only the main idea, but it goes into more depth. A thesis is not only based on reflecting back to the beginning, middle, and end but it represents the paper as a whole.  The thesis is based on the information given, and it helps the author expand on the idea each time. The last paper assignment over the music video, I clearly understood what a thesis meant in more formal essays. The thesis is a straightforward thought throughout the whole essay and each paragraph must relate back to it. A strong thesis, which is used with class assignments, could be questioned depending on the reader’s points of views.
