You will submit your summative research paper. Your final submission should be submitted as a Word document
to your instructor. Your narrative research paper should be a minimum of 6–8 pages (not including cover page or resources) and properly footnoted with a
minimum of six quality resources cited in Turabian style, and follow these formatting guidelines: double spacing, 12-point Times New Roman font, and one-inch
margins.
You will construct a fully researched, thesis-driven narrative containing both primary and secondary sources. You will use these sources
to shed light on your chosen topic without propagating any historical fallacies. Remember that your examination of your topic needs to move beyond simply describing key individuals and events; it must analyze those details and assess
their significance for the time period.
You should NOT produce biographies or simple reconstructions of particular military or political or cultural campaigns.
You will strategically organize your paper to put together a highly effective response to the issue presented by your topic and present:
A Compelling Introduction: Identify your topic clearly, outlining the structure of the argument, defining key terms, and clearly stating the thesis.
An Organized Body: Follow through your thesis in the body of your paper. Ensure you use effective transitions for every component of your argument.
The body of your paper should flow logically, arguing the thesis from your introduction with highly effective examples and facts that support each
element and claim in your thesis. The body will also include effective source evidence from your research in the form of highly relevant quotations and
concise paraphrasing.
A Powerful Conclusion: This is where you pull it all together. Your conclusion will not only effectively restate your thesis but will pull all your claims
together. Your conclusion should clearly relate how the issue represented by the thesis is important, identify what bigger question it raises, and/or
address possibilities and implications for additional research.
