Final paper

Assignment: Compose a 7-10 page research paper on an approved topic in your prospective field, using a minimum of six sources, four of which must be academic sources. The paper should 1) have a strong thesis statement that lays out the argument you will attempt to prove, 2) build structure derived from that thesis with supporting arguments, 3) use evidence of various kinds from sources in order to support arguments, 4) consider potential rebuttal arguments, 5) conclude with an eye toward further research on the topic.

Additionally, you will complete other assignments along the way. This is a semester-long project.

Format and Rules: 7-10 pages with an additional Works Cited page, in MLA format. Six sources are required and must be cited in the paper and appear in the works cited, four of which must come from academic sources. Any paper using Wikipedia will be graded at no higher than 65%, regardless of the quality of the paper. Additional sources not used in the paper may be included in an Other Works Consulted page, but a minimum of six sources must be cited in the text of the paper.
