Construct a claim of fact essay which clearly supports that a specific condition existed, exists, or will exist. Do not include an abstract or executive summary.
You may select your own topic or use "Suggestions for Writing" #1 or #2 on page 118 of Everyday Arguments. The essay must be 500-700 words and include a Reference Page in CSU-Global APA format that cites at least two sources of information from the CSU-Global Virtual Library or elsewhere. 

Consider the following questions as you create your paper:

• Does the writing have a definite beginning, middle, and end? 

• Is the writing easy to follow? 

• Does the writing capture attention? 

• Does the writing state the claim? 

• Does the ending give a note of finality or logical conclusion? 

Support 

• Does the paper use valid facts, quotes, statistics, examples, and/or expert testimony to clarify and prove a claim? 

• Is the data sufficient, accurate, recent, and reliable? 

Document Design 

• Is APA documentation used correctly? 

• Is the format standard? 

• Are citations in parentheses concise and complete enough to find the sources on the reference page? 

Word Choice/Effective Sentences/Punctuation/Spelling and Mechanics 

• Are ideas parallel? 

• Are words added to make comparisons logical and complete? 

• Do modifiers point to the words they modify? 

• Is the point of view consistent? 

• Are verbs consistent in mood, voice, and tense? 

• Is paper void of spelling and mechanical errors?
