Step Three Writing devices 25 minutes Develop a cause-and-effect essay
The purpose of cause-and-effect essays is to explain to the reader: (1) the causes of an event or situation; (2) the effects of an event or situation; or (3) both causes and effects.
An essay of causes begins with an introduction which briefly describes the effect, and then the entire body of the essay analyzes the causes. 1. Do not oversimplify causes.
2. Beware especially of making a mistake in logic known as the fallacy of post hoc, ergo propter hoc –Latin words meaning “after this, therefore because of this”. For instance, if a disease broke out soon after X became Minister of Public Health, we would probably make a mistake in logic in saying that the epidemic broke out because X was made minister. Remember sequence
3. Distinguish between direct and indirect causes and between major and minor causes.
4. Do not omit links in a chain of causes.
5. Be objective and support the analysis with solid, factual evidence. Language tips

since, consequently, therefore, accordingly, because of, for that reason, thus, then, hence, due to, so …that, such … that, the more ... the more, result from, lead to, contribute to, cause, result in, be the reason for, be the consequence of. Writing practice Topic:
