For your final assignment you are going to write a research paper. You will select your own topic by composing a research question which you will answer in your thesis and support throughout the paper by using cited examples from your research in your body paragraphs.

You should have at least four sources, with at least two of these coming from academic sources. The others should be from reliable sources, such as newspapers and magazines. If you are unsure if a source is reliable or not, please check with me.

Your topic must be approved by me.
