Guidelines
1. Write an argumentative research paper that tries to convince the reader of a position. In other words, to repeat, your paper should not just inform your reader about a topic, but instead it must convince your reader of something.
The research paper must be between 1500-1800 words and adhere to MLA formatting.
- The paper must incorporate formal research.
- A minimum of three (3) sources must be used - a maximum of five (5) sources can be used.
- Only ONE (1) source may come from a direct website; this does not mean that you cannot conduct all of your research online -- you can, but your other sources must be academic ones (books, newspaper articles, journal articles, etc.). It IS possible to access these sources remotely via the library portal (from your home or work computer) without having to physically visit the library, if you would prefer not to or are unable to do so.
- Within the paper itself, you must cite each source from which you paraphrase, summarize, or quote. All in-text citations must adhere to MLA formatting. Although this is a reseach paper assignment, the bulk of the paper should still come from your own original ideas, interpretations, evaluations, and suggestions.
- An accompanying Works Cited page is required.
- Accompanying multi-media materials can be incorporated -- and are encouraged! -- but should be in addition to, not in place of, other formal source material and own content.
