PART1 (WEEK1)
Introduction
Over the eight weeks of the course, you will work on a paper that addresses a current controversial issue. This paper is to be in the form of an argument. You will select a topic, choose an issue related to that topic, thoroughly research both sides of the issue, and then write a paper that supports one side or the other of the issue. Your paper must define the issue, present evidence on both sides of the issue, and then argue that one side is stronger and more persuasive than the other. Your paper must address at least three relevant aspects of the issue. More specific directions for each part of the paper will be found within the specific assignment in the weekly modules.
Here is a brief breakdown of the project so that you can plan your time in the course:
Instructions
Topic: Artificial intelligence
State the topic (Artificial Intelligence)
State the specific issue you will explore.
This must be stated either as a question ("Should prostitution be legalized?") or a whether-or-not statement ("Whether prostitution should be legalized").
For the stated issue, state three (3) aspects of the issue that you think you will likely develop in your paper. Briefly state why you have chosen each aspect.
You are not confined to three aspects only, but you must develop
at least
three. As you develop your paper, you may find other aspects that you deem more relevant, and may add or substitute those.
Example:
For the topic of prostitution, you might examine the aspect of personal autonomy, public health aspects, and law enforcement aspects, at a minimum.
Example:
For the topic of free healthcare for undocumented persons, you might address economic aspects, ethical aspects, and public health aspects, at a minimum.

Because the topics vary widely, the nature of your research will
also vary. If you are writing about gene therapy, for example,
you will have to support your points with scholarly medical
opinion. You may need to review researching techniques. Visit
the research links provided in the
Required Resources
section in this activity for more information.

articles in very high quality substantive journals may also be

If it is not current, explain why you think it is acceptable.
If your source is
credible

and
authoritative
How well your source

PART4 ( WEEK7)
Introduction
This week, all the hard work you have done in researching your
topic and issue will come to fruition in your argumentative
paper. Once you feel you have got the final draft, try to put the
paper aside, even for a few hours, and then read it again.
Did you address at least three aspects of the issue you chose?
Does each aspect have relevant and authoritative evidence in
support of your point?
Have you included a view that is in opposition to your
viewpoint, and have you answered that opposing view, pointing
out its flaws in such a way as to refute it?
Edit your paper – look for wordiness, repetition, vagueness,
ambiguities. Check the organization of the paper as a whole;
make sure each paragraph maintains focus. After you are
satisfied that the content of your paper is good, carefully
proofread it and correct mechanical errors.
Here is a brief breakdown of the project so that you can plan
your time in the course:
Week 1
10. Topic Selection
Week 3
Issue Review (both sides)
Week 5
Thesis & Annotated Bibliography (both sides)
Week 7
Argumentative Paper
Instructions
This week, you will complete your argumentative paper.
Following the directions in assigned textbook reading on how
write an argumentative essay on the issue you chose in Week 1.
Be sure your essay contains the following:
An opening paragraph that states a clear thesis that is focused,
plausible, and arguable and that gives direction and purpose to
the paper
A fair-minded, balanced, and objective development of the pros
and cons of the issue in a well-organized sequence of ideas,
free of mechanical errors
Credible, reliable, and authoritative evidence in support of the
points made
A strong conclusion that summarizes your views, reminds the
audience of the issue and its importance, and shows in brief
11. that you have successfully defended your thesis
Note
As you do your research, it is permissible to change your
sources. Also, because of the recency and relevance of these
issues, no sources older than 5 years should be used other than
as historical information. Critical thinkers do the research first
and then side with the preponderance of evidence. You might
want to follow that principle.
