Form your outline I should be able to determine what direction your paper is taking and how you are organizing your paper. You should include a list of possible sources. This does not have to be your final list, but I want to see what types of sources you are looking at and make sure you are finding scholarly sources for your research.

We have talked about many different types of supernatural creatures through various lenses throughout the course. There is, however, one supernatural creature we have not yet mentioned. For your final, you will use three or more of the academic approaches we have been utilizing throughout the course to perform an in depth analysis on witches. This is a research paper and you will be expected to write a clear and precise thesis statement and find at least three scholarly sources that support your ideas. Depending on the quality of your sources, it is likely that you will want more than three to support your thesis.

Some ideas you may want to explore are:

• Witches across cultures
• Witches within a specific culture
• Witches across time
• Witches in classic literature
• Witches in film or television
• Witches as depicted in visual art (photography, painting, subculture)

You may propose another supernatural topic that we have not specifically covered, but it must be approved in advance. If you want to research a different topic please email me with your topic suggestion.

You are the district manager of a luxury watch producer, and sales have been steadily declining. You hold a meeting with your production and sales staff to attempt to identify the reasons for the decline, and the following reasons are offered for the decreased sales:

• slow economy, so no one is buying watches of any kind;
• salespeople are not provided adequate resources to properly market the watches;
• the quality of the watches has declined to the point that people do not want to buy them;
• the supply chain is unable to keep up with orders, so deliveries are slow, and customers are cancelling orders;
• the financial manager does not like the marketing department, so we cannot trust the numbers he produces; and
• the marketing manager should just get rid of the salespeople who are not able to hit the established sales targets.

Given this scenario, answer the following questions.

1. Discuss strategies for examining claims for legitimacy or fallacy. It is not necessary to address all six bullet points above, but clearly identify which are being discussed.
2. Identify any potential fallacies in logic that might inhibit creative thinking.
3. Develop strategies for creatively overcoming identified fallacies.

Formulate your response to these questions using APA style, and include at least two outside sources; your paper must be a minimum of three pages.
