Research Paper Assignment

Length: 2500 words.

Research a topic of your choice and make a reasoned, well-supported argument to get your audience to agree with you. Imagine you are writing an opinion piece for a high-quality publication such as The New York Times, The Atlantic, or The New Republic (but use MLA referencing).

Your paper should

• present a central thesis (argument, arguable position)
• provide reasons to explain why your thesis is correct
• provide evidence to support your reasons/claims/thesis
• refer to at least 5 scholarly sources
• refute potential counter-arguments by identifying fallacious arguments and/or refuting credibility of evidence, and
• persuade the reader to think differently or take an action.

Topics

The topic is up to you, but don't spend so much time deciding on a topic that you don't have time to do research and make an argument. You might choose a topic related to your major or your personal interests. Form your topic into a research question that your paper attempts to answer.
