Description
Title of your Paper in Upper and
Lower Case (Centered, not Bold)
Type your introduction here and remove
the instructions.. The introduction should begin with an attention grabber and
end with your working thesis statement. Remember to employ an objective tone by
applying only 3rd person point of view (no 1st: I, me,
my, we, our, us, mine) or 2nd: you, your person point of view).
Context
Begin to type the body of your paper
here. Use as many paragraphs as needed to cover the content appropriately. As
noted in the Lecture’s outline, the context section should include potential
qualifiers, and definitions. It is essentially background information that
provides your audience with the context needed to understand your claim.
1st
Pro-Point
Begin with a topic sentence written in
your own words that presents your grounds. Next, apply the
evidence/warrant. Signal phrases are
highly recommended to introduce new sources (ex: According to Dr. John Smith,
head physician at the Mayo Clinic…). Cite your sources in APA format via
parenthetical citations. Follow through with a few sentences examining the
evidence and connecting it back to your main point. Strive for a minimum of 5 developed sentences
in a college level paragraph. Remember to refer back to the outline in our Week
2 Lesson if you need to review the structure of the paper.
Repeat
this process for your 2nd and 3rd Pro-Points, dedicating
a paragraph to each.
Conclusion
Papers should end with a conclusion.
Unpack your thesis (do not copy/paste it) and apply a concluding technique. It
should be concise and contain no new detail. No matter how much space remains
on the page, the references always start on a separate page.
