research project

This assignment is an opportunity for you to research a topic related to the study of the Holocaust that interests you in depth. During Week 2, I will post topic ideas, as well as open up a discussion to brainstorm topics with your classmates and me. This paper is not simply a historical narrative, but is an analytical paper. You need to form a thesis statement and include your analysis throughout your paper. Please see the provided grading rubric in the classroom.

Note: I am available to read rough drafts that are submitted one week before the due date. I am available to discuss this project with you at any stage of research. You may email me theses statements to check, topic ideas, outlines, sources, etc. Remember I am here to help you! Tips for your Final Paper: -Include a Title Page (this does not count into the total page count for the assignment) -Include a Bibliography or Works Cited Page (this does not count into the total page count for your assignment)> -Cite all quotations, paragraphing, ideas, and information that is not general knowledge using Chicago Style footnotes. -Develop a strong and specific thesis statement (argument) for your paper. -Include a clear and focused introduction that establishes both your thesis and the main points for your paper. -Tie information back to your thesis throughout. -Include your analysis throughout; do not just give a historical narrative. - Transition between topics and make connections (use your paragraph topic and concluding sentences to your advantage). -Bring together your main points and re-summarize your thesis in a clear and focused conclusion.
