just wondering if anyone could help with getting a scaffold/plan for the section III essay on physical journey,,, there's one in the Module A (Adv) for E&C, BNW, etc. but i couldn't find any on physical journey. i think most of us could do with some help. even just a generic question that can cater for most questions (if there is any). i just have no idea how to go about it. thanks.


P.S. this is the E&C scaffold,, something similar would be great.

- Emma and Clueless Essay Scaffold
This is by no means THE PERFECT SCAFFOLD, but just a guide. My suggestion is to write a scaffold before every essay and show it to your teacher.
Introduction
Make a statement about Popular Culture and/or the transformation of texts. Introduce the two texts (in this case, “Emma” by Jane Austen and “Clueless” by Amy Heckerling). Provide some points as to how these two texts are similar or dissimilar. Basically, tell the marker what you will be arguing. Lastly, answer the question!!

Paragraph
An introduction to Emma’s world. You can include quotes from the novel describing Emma as a person, “Had lived nearly twenty one years….”etc. Also you can include quotes about the rigid society and how, ultimately, this society will be dissimilar to the one portrayed in Heckerling’s “Clueless”

Paragraph
An introduction to Cher’s world. Same as above, but all for Cher. You could possibly state that although these two texts differ in some situations and are similar in others, BOTH texts illustrate the same message, that cluelessness (pardon the pun) impedes the journey to great enlightenment.

Paragraph
For the next few paragraphs, you have two options:
Thematically – choose a theme and show how it is similar (or dissimilar) in both texts, providing quotes to support your argument or
Text by text – discuss a theme from one text then create a linking sentence when you begin to write the next paragraph.
This choice is entirely up to you and which is more comfortable and ultimately easier for you to write.

Conclusion
This is the easiest (or so they say): Sum up your argument!
