Assignment Instructions

Instructions:

This essay should be between 900 and 1000 words, plus the required annotated bibliography.

First, you will choose a public debate that has at least two opposing sides (please do not reuse your Toulmin essay topic). As before, you need to research that topic in order to narrow the topic’s scope, so it can be easily discussed in 1000-word essay.

Note: Consider your audience as fairly smart people who already have general knowledge of the topic.

This essay must include a minimum of five sources. Three should be peer-reviewed sources, preferably from the APUS databases. From the library welcome page, click on Advanced Search at the bottom of the page and then check the “peer reviewed” sources box filter.

The following should clarify the term “peer-reviewed”: http://youtu.be/rOCQZ7QnoN0. You may use eBooks; however, as discussed in your textbook, books generally are not as current as peer-reviewed articles. You may also use primary sources (interviews, statistics, etc); however, these primary sources should be obtained from experts within that field. If you cannot find strong sources for your chosen topic, then change your topic. If you have a question about the validity of a source, please contact a librarian: librarian@apus.edu

Make sure your essay includes the following:

I. Introduction and thesis

II. Recent historical background on the debate and the point of contention

III. Show understanding of opposition

IV. Establish common ground (typically a value like safety, freedom, patriotism, etc.)

V. Build on common ground to support your claim and also establish any other relevant support for your claim

VI. Conclusion
a. Summary
b. Implications

Allow time for revisions. Read through your essay to make corrections and improvements. Make sure you haven’t left any typos or word choice errors in the final draft.

The Annotated Bibliography

As with the Toulmin essay, an annotated Bibliography (AB) is due with your Rogerian essay.

The following is a sample of an annotated bibliography entry.

Clark, Irene L. The Genre of Argument. Fort Worth, TX: Harcourt Brace, 1998. Print.

Clark’s textbook identifies the major steps to developing a well-researched and well-written argumentative essay. It is older, but still contains much useful material on process. Professional essays are included in the text as models. It will help me mostly with writing and organization, since internet research has changed since 1998.

Submission Instructions: Please submit this through the assignments link in the classroom. This assignment is due on Sunday, by 11:55 p.m., ET.

Revisit the previously assigned readings from unit two. (Unit Two Readings: From The Purposeful Argument, Chapters 8, 10, and 11:  Building and supporting arguments: Logos, Ethos, Pathos.)

Post, and briefly discuss, two or three topics of interest that are controversial/ argumentative, seemingly broad enough to render a full research but narrow enough for a focused, defined claim.
