revise my position essay into a research essay

Important Stuff to Remember About Your Research Essay:
1. You will revise your position essay into a research essay by
integrating quotes and paraphrases into it from outside sources.
2. You should have a minimum of three sources. Each of these
sources must come from Valencia’s databases. (I highly
recommend using Opposing Viewpoints, Points of View, and
Newsstand.) Also, each source must be listed on the Works Cited
page using proper MLA guidelines.
3. You should have a minimum of six quotes or citations. Each
quote or paraphrase must be taken from one of your chosen
sources. Also, each quote or paraphrase must be in the proper
MLA format for in-text citations.
4. Your essay should be between 1,000-1,200 words. Of course, you
are revising your position essay into a research paper by adding
quotes and paraphrases, so you already have a minimum of 800
words before you even begin.
5. The entire essay should be in MLA format. In other words, do not
include a cover page, an abstract, photos, or nonstandard fonts.
6. You must submit your essay as an MSWord attachment. Any
other format will not be accepted.
7. Your research essay will be checked for plagiarism. Please do not
be tempted into copying an essay or sections of an essay from
somewhere else. If you have uncredited passages from outside
sources, you could get a “0” on this essay!

Research
proposals should be between 10-14 pages and should be double-spaced in 12- point font with 1-inch margins on
all sides. The paper should adhere to the format and submission guidelines provided by the Publication Manual of
the American Psychological Association (6th Ed.) or the Academy of Management style guide
(http://aom.pace.edu/amjnew/style_guide.html), and should be organized roughly as follows:
1. Introduction
2. Theory and Hypotheses (if applicable)
3. Methodology
Your introduction should identify the existing “conversation” you are joining, what is missing from this
conversation, and how you intend to fill that gap. If these first few pages (est 2-4pgs) of a research paper
don’t clearly explain your point, and why it is important, most readers will lose interest – especially reviewers
and readers. Clarity in this section is critical is it tells the reader why what you are doing matters. These are
six questions that may help you with the introduction.
• What is the problem being addressed by this research?
• Why is that problem important?
• What do we know about this problem?
• What don’t we know?
• Why is it important that we know more?
• How will your study advance knowledge?

In “Why Games are Good for You” Steven Johnson argues that the beneficial ways a person thinks when playing video games is an under-explored subject.

Summary and Response
Summary (50-300 words) and Response (500 word minimum) due Saturday, 11:59 p.m. your time zone. 35 points.
In this assignment, you are going to write a brief summary of your primary response article. Next, you are going to respond to that article by bringing up your thoughts or feelings on it. As we learned in ENG 100, academic writing is a conversation, and an important part of the conversation is to summarize what someone else has written before we respond to it. This helps our audience understand the broader conversation that we are entering.
The Summary (50-300 words).
Our summaries should try to capture the main arguments of the paper/article as fairly as possible, even if we disagree with the points the article is making. Though we try to be fair, we are also selective, for we want to focus our summaries on what is relevant to the point we want to make.
For example, if I were writing a summary of “Why Games are Good for You” by Stephen Johnson, I would survey the article first. I would notice that much of the article is focused on the distinction between books and games and some of the article is devoted to discussing the virtues of hand-eye coordination. If my argument is primarily about the content of games, these aren’t areas where I will focus my summary. I will focus my summary on the areas that are relevant to my paper.
For example:
In “Why Games are Good for You” Steven Johnson argues that the beneficial ways a person thinks when playing video games is an under-explored subject. He stresses interactivity and community, but mainly he mainly focuses on why video games are so entertaining. To do so, he delves into neuroscience and what goes into the idea of gratification. He argues that video games are beneficial mainly because they practice the player in delayed gratification. He claims that “It is not what you’re thinking about when you’re playing a game, it’s the way you’re thinking that matters” (493).
This summary attempts to convey the basics of Johnson’s argument without getting bogged down in sections of the paper that aren’t relevant to the point that I want to make. Remember, the point of a summary is to set up the “They Say” before you get to your claim, the “I Say”.
The Response (500 words min).
You have likely already formulated a basic response to the article in your “entering the conversation” activity. Now it is time to build and refine those thoughts. Keep in mind that it is okay if your thoughts on the subject have changed or shifted. You may need to return to the “entering the conversation activity” and reread what you wrote, for you might have realized there is a better point to argue. For example, just in writing the summary above, I realized that I also don’t quite agree with Johnson’s point that video games teach delayed gratification. Perhaps that would be a more productive argument than the original one I explored. Part of thinking like a scholar is being willing to follow where your thoughts lead. Many responses will move toward the thesis by assessing the strengths and weaknesses of your primary response article. Many responses will focus on establishing the “gap” in the conversation that you will attempt to fill.
After you have written your response, write three different thesis statements that you thiSummary and Response
