Research Proposal Project

Hopefully, the following information provides clear, useful answers about how you will earn an “A” on the proposal project that counts for 50% of your grade in this course.

· Page Count: No matter what the textbook says about the page minimum for a section, the end result should be five (5) full double-spaced pages contributing to the body. That means that you may shorten or lengthen a section as necessary. Sections like the title page, table of contents and References list do not count toward that five-page minimum.

· Genre and Disciplinary Conventions: Properly format and organize the essay in appropriate APA writing style.

· Sources and Evidence: Incorporate at least twenty citations from at least ten library database sources or relevant, credible websites into each of the five-page sections. These sources should have been published no longer than five years ago.

· Counterargument: You are asking someone for a great deal of money. They may logically object to parts of your proposal. Anticipate those objections, acknowledge them, and refute them as you did in your essays in 1301—hopefully. No matter how eloquent the wording, if a counterargument does not appear somewhere within the body of the proposal, no one in the group will earn a passing grade.

· Control of Syntax and Mechanics: Use graceful language that skillfully communicates meaning to readers with clarity and fluency, making almost no errors.

As for the PowerPoint which represents the remaining 10% of the 50% for the total project, remember that it serves strictly as a visual, so the slides should be dominated by images and cool middle school-style animation; and any text on the slides should be in a ginormous font size—no smaller than 48 (no kidding). Because your proposal will not include graphics, this is where any that you would want to include will be incorporated. When you are creating the presentation, you will notice under each slide a text box that most of you have never used before now. That is where you write all of the stuff that you would say to your audience if you actually had to present or, in this case, paste the relevant parts of what you wrote in your essay;-) (You cannot change the font/size of the text in the box.) Create six to nine slides, not including the required title slide and the References slide(s). You may now start to barrage me with additional questions:-)
