Paper #4 – 2 Parts
Part 1 -- Researched Argument
Part 2 – Visual Essay
Part I
For Paper #4 you will write a researched argument essay that
addresses an issue related to the U.S. Judicial and/or prison
system. Think about the documentary films we’ve watched (Into
the Abyss, Lost for Life, The Farm), about any direct or indirect
experiences you may have had, any discussions you may have
engaged in (in personal as well as academic settings), any
material you may have read (in and out of school). Decide on a
topic that interests you, and devise a corresponding issue. The
issue should be sufficiently complex – something debatable.
Your paper shall be 10 pages, typed, double-spaced. It shall
include proper source citations (in-text citations, work cited
page).
Follow these steps as you construct your paper:
Read what experts have already said about the issue.
Examine the various dimensions of the issue by
analyzing and evaluating the experts’ arguments to determine
which are the most convincing, which are reasonable but not
terribly convincing, and which are flawed.
Articulate a thesis expressing your own position.
Discover solid reasons to support your thesis.
Return to the sources (research) to extract evidence you
will use to back up each of your reasons. Ways to support your
reasons:
Examples --
Based on a similarity to something that happened in the
past.
Based on a similar case.
Based on a hypothetical situation.
Relevant Information –
Facts
Statistics
Points of interest
Statements, testimony, or other relevant information from
acknowledged authorities.
Personal experience (be sure the experience relates directly
to the reason you are developing).
Summarize alternative views and reasonable objections
to your argument.
Respond tactfully to these alternative views.
Structure your essay (for this essay, I ask that you
follow the following structure):
Introductory Section
Opener – Introduce the issue and invite your readers
into the conversation.
Explanation and background – Familiarize your readers
with the controversy. Give them the information they need to
understand the issue at hand and make sense of the
conversation.
Thesis – Give your stand on the issue – your main
claim.
Body of the Essay
Alternative view on one aspect of the controversy
Your refutation of this view
Reason + evidence for your thesis
Alternative view on another aspect of the controversy
Your refutation of this view
Reason + evidence for your thesis
*(This pattern continues until you have covered all the aspects
of the issue you have chosen to focus on.)
Conclusion
Recap of the argument
Final statement of argument/final assessment of main
issue and claim
Part II
Visual Essay – Select 5 images that represent your perception of
the U. S. Judicial and/or prison system. Assemble these into a
1-page collage. Accompany your collage of images with a 1-2
paragraph discussion of the ‘story’ your visual text/visual
compilation tells.
An Executive Summary is a one-page document that outlines the
purpose, process, discussion, and findings of a report. You need
to provide a summary of the information you have gathered
about influence methods and your leaders.

Decide on a topic that interests you, and devise a corresponding issue. The issue should be sufficiently complex – something debatable. Your paper shall be 10 pages, typed, double-spaced.
