Writing techniques that will help you create a better thesis


There is a strong argument which says that a strong thesis is always a better thesis. It becomes the bedrock or foundation of your essay or dissertation. The stronger and better you make your thesis, the stronger and better will be the following writing. The purpose of this article is to show you how you can create a better thesis and therefore obtain a higher mark.

It's really important that you understand the role of a thesis statement. It is part of your introduction but it is not the introduction. It is in fact your position or point of view on a statement or question. It is an encapsulated description of what you are going to prove in the remainder of your dissertation. Once you are absolutely certain of the purpose of a thesis statement and the one you have created, you're well on the way to creating a better one.

You must have a specific thesis statement. The more narrow the angle or approach you are taking to the topic the better. This enables you to seriously stick to the topic. Every supporting argument you develop will build on the one before it. When your thesis is specific it is easy for the reader to understand and for you to prove.

Just as the above paragraph is true, so too is the inverse or opposite position. If you have a general thesis statement you run the risk of being swamped with too much information and not being able to prove your case in the number of words allowed.

Clarity is everything when it comes to a good thesis. If there is any vague or flowery writing involved, you run the risk of losing the reader before they've even begun to read the remainder of your work. Take your time and produce a clear and lucid thesis statement.

It is always to your advantage if you can think of something original when creating your thesis. The actual topic may not be original but if your approach to that topic is original, you will certainly be well on the way to creating a better thesis.
