2. Term Paper Instructions
You will prepare a paper on an issueconcerning
human-animal relationships (see Schedule for due
dates). In this paper you will develop alternative
(pro and con) positions on the identified issue,
taking
into consideration different perspectives (e.g., from
the perspective of a medical research,
conservationist, ethicist, farmer, etc.). The Term
Paper project will have 3 stages of
development:
• Stage 1: Outline (100 points)
You will first develop a detailed outline. We
recommend you meet and go over your outline
with your TA, but this is optional. The outline will be
graded and you will receive feedback.
• Stage 2: Term Paper version 1 (100 points)
The feedback on the outline will guide you to
successfully writeyour Term Paper. Put in
your
best effort--write it as if it is your final
version. The more you do for your version 1,
the more
your TA will be able to help you! This Term Paper
v.1 will be graded and you will receive
feedback.
• Stage 3: Term Paper version 2 (100 points)
You will be able to incorporate the feedback of
Term Paper v.1 into a revised, rewritten
paper.

3. This revised Term Paper v.2 will be graded. If
you receive an A (90-100%) on the v.1,
you have
the option of using that grade for your v.2
paper. (You MUST submit a Word
document to the
Assignment folder in D2L saying “For Term
Paper v.2 I wish to keep my same ‘A’ grade
that I
earned from Term Paper v.1”)
• Topic: Please select one of the topics (see
Term Paper Topics provided in D2L)
• File Type: submit in MS Word or PDF
file format
• Length: 7-10 text pages
o notincluding title page
o including references
o Important graphs or illustrations may be
included (with proper citation) but will not be
counted toward the text page length
• Format Specifics:
o double-spaced lines
o 12pt font
o 1 inch margins
o page numbers (bottom right) on all pages
following the title page (NOT on title page)
o each section should begin with a heading
(e.g., Introduction)
o bold font 2 peer-reviewed sources in the
References section of your paper (not in

4. the body
of the paper). See References section below
with further explanation.
• Pro & Con Perspectives: Discuss the pro and con
positions on the topicand provide different
perspectives under each side of the question (see
Term Paper Topics provided in D2L for an
example topicwith different perspectives.)
• References: provide at least 2 peer-reviewed articles
that supports each position (1 for Pro and 1
for Con) in APA bibliographic style
o Watch the video posted on “What is a
peer-reviewed article?”
o Use the Library Tools (see top menu in
D2L) to find resources, such as:
§ Web of Science
§ Academic Search
o Library Tools tab also has “Citation StyleGuides”
which shows the APA style citation we
require. There you will find a handy website
called the Online Writing Lab (OWL)
which
shows you the format for different kinds of
referencesand how to do in-text citations:
https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/560/05/

5. o
o You need not analyzing the peer-reviewed articles.
You are using the articles as support for
one (or more) of the perspectives.
o You will probably use othersources of information
such as magazine articles or websites.
Make sure theseare credible sources (i.e., they are
based on evidence not just opinion). If
you are not sure about the reliability of a source,
ask a librarian to help you assess the
source. You will list all your sources the references.
But be sure to include at least 2 peer-
reviewed articles for your paper.
o Indicate one reference for the “PRO” position by
adding this note after the reference (in
bold) “Note: This peer-reviewed reference was used
for the PRO position.” Likewise,
add a similar note for a peer-reviewed reference
used for the “CON” perspective: “Note:
This peer-reviewed reference was used for CON position.
o This allows the graders to verify that you
have included a peer-reviewed article for each
position.
• In-Text Citation:
o For citing your sources within the text of
your paper, use in-text citations in APA format.
See “Citation StyleGuides” above. (Note: The entire

6. paper is NOT in APA format, only the
citation style and referencesformat.)
• Plagiarism
o Plagiarism is a form of cheating. It is taking
another person’s words or ideasand using
them as it they were your own words or ideas.
Plagiarism will not be tolerated—It can lead
to failing the course of being expelled from
the university!
o You may not copy or use direct quotes from
one of your sources or any another material.
You
must paraphrase or summarize the idea in your
own words. (Using quoted text and
providing the source of the quote is not
plagiarism, sinceyou are giving credit to
the
creator of the text. However, in this paper we
want you to writethe ideasin your own
words, and provide the citation of where the
idea camefrom.)
o Originality reports showing >25% duplicate
material will not be graded (0 points
earned).
You will be required to submit a new version
and points will be deducted for lateness.

7. o Take this tutorial on how to avoid accidental
plagiarism:

Paper section)
Below are the 6 sections required in your paper.
Paper Outline
1. Title page
• Title of your paper
• Student Name
• Course/section (e.g. ACBS 160D section 1 @

8. 10am or ACBS 160D section 2 @
9am)
• Your TA Name
• Date
• Optional: you may include a photo pertaining to
your topic
• This page is not included in the page numbering
2. Introduction
• Attention grabber (e.g., shocking statistic,
rhetorical question)
• Background about the topic
ü introduce the issueyou are focusing on
ü foreshadow the PRO and CON positions you will explore
ü indicate which perspectives (e.g., farmer,
developer, conservationist, researcher)
you will discuss on both sidesof the issue
• End the introduction with your THESIS statement –
ü be clear and concise
ü be consistent with or follow logically from the framing
of the issue(that you
provided in the background)
ü gives a “map” of where you will go in
your essay
ü Example: In this paper I will present
alternative position on the topicof animal
use

9. for medical research, considering a variety of
perspectives, and concluding with a
position on animal testing that seems most
justifiable.
3. PRO: Perspectives in Favor
• Who are the general proponents of this
perspective (see Term Paper Topics for
examples of
different perspectives). It is best to select 2-3
perspectives to focus on in detail rather
than
trying to provide an exhaustive list of
perspectives and discuss each only superficially.
• At least 1 peer-reviewed article supporting this
perspective
• More than one peer-reviewed reference is fine (and in
many cases will likely be the case)
• You may use othersources of information that
express a perspective on the topic(e.g.,
books, magazine articles, websites). Please cite
them according to APA style citations.
However, theseare not considered peer-reviewed.
• The quality of your research and sources will be
assessed. Your research should be in-
depth, going beyond the obvious.

10. 4. CON: Perspectives Against (see PRO above)
5. Conclusion
• Restate your thesis statement to remind the reader
the purpose of your paper.
• Discuss which position is more persuasive and
why. Compare and contrast the major
argumentson both the PRO and CON side of the issue.
• This is not simply your opinion on how you
feel about the topic. You need to justify
which
position (or combination of the positions) is
supported best.
• This is an exercise in critical thinking! Support
your conclusion with reasoning and
evidence.
• Make sure you have a good concluding sentence
that brings closure to your essay.
6. References
• Use APA style in-text citation (Note: The entire
paper is NOT in APA format, only the
citation style and references.)
• For each position in your paper you must have at
least 1 peer-reviewed reference. To show
this, please identify one reference for the “PRO”

11. position by adding this note after the
reference (in bold) “Note: This peer-reviewed
reference was used for the PRO
position.” Likewise, add a similar note for a peer-
reviewed reference used for the “CON”
perspective: “Note: This peer-reviewed reference was
used for CON position.
• This allows the graders to verify that you
have included a peer-reviewed article for each
perspective.
NOTE:
Punctuality: If your outline is submitted late to
the Assignment folder, points will be
deducted:
• A bit late: If late under 1 hr then no points
deducted (often this is caused by technical
issues due
last minute rush to upload documents)
• A little late: If late over 1hr but under 3 hrs
then deduct 5pts
• Somewhat late: If late >3hrs hr but within
24hrs then deduct 10pts
• Very late: If late >24 hrs then deduct 15pts

slaughterhouses before they are killed for consumption? Should
it matter how
chickens or pigs are kept in factory farms if they are going to be
killed for meat? )
