Essay #3: Research
Pick a controversial topic with two distinct, arguable sides
(marijuana legalization, abortion,
police reform, education reform, etc.). Using the library
database, write an essay discussing the
issue. What major points would someone who wants to learn
about your topic need to know?
This may include things like general history, data and analysis,
or public perception of your
issue. What specific evidence compels you? After you explain
the issue, pick a side and argue for
it. What about the evidence you’ve discovered leads you to
believe this? What are some possible
solutions to this issue?
Make sure your topic is SPECIFIC. Make sure you don’t write
on general topics like
“ABORTION” or “GUN CONTROL” as a whole. What specific
areas within those issues can
you focus on?
Make sure to check your work for logical fallacies!
Your essay must:
o Have an intro with a thesis.
o Have a conclusion.
o Be organized.
o Be 5+ pages.
o Be in MLA Format.
o Use proper in-text citations.
o Have a “Works Cited” page.
o Be checked for spelling, grammar, and
wordiness.
