Ethical Rogerian Argument Thesis/Outline Assignment Instructions
Overview
In Module 4, you must develop a thesis statement and outline for the 1000-1200 word ethical argument essay that you will write in Module 5. This assignment will show your understanding of the reading material covered so far in the course related to argument and essay development. Putting in the time to do the groundwork in the thesis/outline assignment will help you when you begin writing the actual essay in Module 5. It is important to review the sample student outline available in APA, MLA, and Turabian in chapter 14 to understand the expectations of this assignment that will be somewhat different from the expectations of the thesis/outline assignments for the other essay assignments in this course.
Instructions
Review chapter 14 in the textbook for the sample ethical Rogerian argument thesis/outline written in the documentation style for your major course of study. Using the sample, complete your own thesis/outline in Module 4 that you will use in Module 5 to develop your Ethical Rogerian Argument Assignment. Your thesis/outline assignment should include a clear thesis statement that addresses the question in the prompt with a clear ethical argument and an outline of your plan of support following the Rogerian Model of argument. The research sources for this essay have been provided for you in our course. Any additional sources that you may choose to use must be credible academic sources. You may include biblical support, but your biblical support does not count in the required citations.
· Prompt: How far should humans be allowed to proceed with artificial intelligence?
· Complete your thesis/outline using the sample in chapter 14 as a model while addressing the prompt question.
· Document your sources correctly according to your documentation style (Current APA, MLA, or Turabian).
· Integrate a total of at least 4 quotations, 1 summary, and 1 paraphrase (6 total) from at least 3 credible academic sources
