Assignment Details
Introduction
Its now time to read your instructors and the Tutor.com tutors feedback on your rough draft and use that feedback to revise your rough draft into a polished, professional final draft. Its important for you to consider how the order of your ideas and the evidence that you present will be received by your reader. Ensure that your final draft will be easy for your audience to understand so that they can more readily agree with your argument.
The concepts and skills presented in the intellipath lessons will help you complete this assignment, specifically the following lessons:
- Final Thoughts: The Intro, Body, and Conclusion
- Revising the Argumentative Essay
- Formatting Your Paper
Directions
Write a polished, professional final draft of your research paper, free of grammar, spelling, punctuation, and sentence structure errors. Write in a formal voice by using the third-person point of view (rather than first person I or second person you). Write concisely, and avoid slang or casual language.
You are encouraged to use the Originality Verification tool to help you determine if all language that is copied directly from a source properly uses quotation marks and is correctly cited.
Your final draft should be correctly formatted in APA style.
If you completed and received feedback on your rough draft (Unit 8 IP), start with that file, rename it as your Unit 10 final draft, and make corrections in your resaved file using your instructors feedback from Unit 8 and the feedback that you received from the tutor. Then, recheck your work using the guidelines below to ensure that you have not missed any part of the assignment.
The same structure of the rough draft (Unit 8 IP) applies to this final draft (Unit 10 IP):
Introduction: Briefly explain your topic, and provide background information on how it is an issue where people may disagree. The final sentence of the introduction is your thesis statement, which clearly and concisely states your opinion on the issue, plus 3 points that support that opinion.
Body Paragraph 1 (Use the first of the three points in your thesis statement): Begin the first body paragraph with a topic sentence that provides the context for the rest of the paragraph. Provide reasons that support your first point. Then, carefully select evidence and information from your sources that directly proves your reasons are valid. Fairly and accurately summarize, paraphrase, and directly quote (when appropriate) source information, and use APA in-text citations to document the sources. (To adequately support this point with source information, you will probably need more than one in-text citation from more than one source.) Explain how the source information supports your point.
Body Paragraph 2 (Use the second of the three points in your thesis statement): Begin the second body paragraph with a topic sentence that provides the context for the rest of the paragraph. Provide reasons that support your second point. Then, carefully select evidence and information from your sources that directly proves your reasons are valid. Fairly and accurately summarize, paraphrase, and directly quote (when appropriate) source information, and use APA in-text citations to document the sources. (To adequately support this point with source information, you will probably need more than one in-text citation from more than one source.) Explain how the source information supports your point.
Body Paragraph 3 (Use the third of the three points in your thesis statement): Begin the third body paragraph with a topic sentence that provides the context for the rest of the paragraph. Provide reasons that support your third point. Then, carefully select evidence and information from your sources that directly proves your reasons are valid. Fairly and accurately summarize, paraphrase, and directly quote (when appropriate) source information, and use APA in-text citations to document the sources. (To adequately support this point with source information, you will probably need more than one in-text citation from more than one source.) Explain how the source information supports your point.
NOTE: You may need more than 3 body paragraphs to adequately develop your three points.
Counterargument Paragraph: Begin the counterargument paragraph with a topic sentence that transitions from your argument to the opposing view. Remember that you are acknowledging why some people disagree with your opinion, BUT you must also explain how your opinion is still valid. Carefully select evidence and information from your sources that supports your counterargument. Fairly and accurately summarize, paraphrase, and directly quote (when appropriate) source information, and use APA in-text citations to document the sources. (At least one source is cited in one in-text citation.) Explain how the source information supports your point.
NOTE: You may need more than 1 paragraph to adequately acknowledge and counterargue the opposing view.
Final Body Paragraph: Begin your final body paragraph with a topic sentence that shares that you have considered ethics and diversity in relation to your point of view. Present how your point of view on your topic impacts diverse audiences, including people from backgrounds different from your own. Present any ethical issues you have uncovered related to your point of view on your topic. Explain how your argument addresses concerns for diverse people and ethical issues related to your point of view on your topic.
Conclusion: The final paragraph should provide the readers with a recap of your main points. Reassert your thesis, and provide a sense of closure.
References page: Begin the list of references on a new page. You should have a minimum of 3 sources correctly formatted in APA style.
In addition to your argumentative essay, submit proof of your interaction with a Tutor.com tutor. Evidence includes a downloaded copy of an e-mail, downloaded copy of the feedback report, or a screenshot of the e-mail, live conversation, or feedback report. Simply submit proof that a tutor provided you with feedback.
