Question:
Topic Selection and Thesis Statement
You will begin your course project work this week by selecting a topic to explore and formulating a thesis statement. Refer to the Contemporary Social Problem Research Paper course project description for detailed information about this component of your course project.
A good, strong thesis statement is a critical component of the topic selection, as it promotes focus and position. It must be designed to answer a question about the topic you plan to explore. Use the guidelines in the How to Write a Thesis Statement resource to develop your statement.
