Overview
The paper proposal provides the opportunity for you to frame and test ideas for your final paper. This is your chance to tell me what it is you want to write on, provide as many details as possible for your argument, and to discuss problems you foresee with the writing process, evidence collection, reading/interpretation, etc.
In your proposal, please be sure to include your thesis statement or main idea (it is possible, but not necessarily recommended, to write without a thesis sentence; nevertheless, you must have a strong main idea).
Describe your planned evidence (from the text in question, outside sources, etc.–here you should provide a well developed Annotated Bibliography).
Provide an Annotated Bibliography of 6 sources:
Two sources must be from either scholarly books or articles from an academic journal.
Four of your sources may be web-based.
Only one of your sources can be an encyclopedia site, e.g. Wikipedia, About.com, Britannica online, etc.
Do not use the eBook from this course as one of your sources.
Provide a brief outline or synopsis of your logic and argument. If this were a story, I’d want to see the plot laid out, complete character descriptions, and how you plan to bring it all together.
Please see the Final Paper Proposal Rubric attached to this folder to review assessment criteria,
