Research Paper: This will be the culmination of every student’s academic development in this course. The final paper will be 2000 (2500 maximum) words in length (excluding title page, footnotes, and bibliography), and will be formatted in 12-pt. Times New Roman font with double spaced text. The topic must be that presented in the Proposal and must be drawn from the provided list of essay topics. Please see the Student Success Guide for more information on formatting and writing practice. About a week before handing the paper in, students will pair up to give evaluative feedback on essay outlines and/or essay drafts. This will be to give students feedback on their essay from their peers, and to allow students an opportunity to develop their skills at offering evaluative feedback on others’ work. Students will be asked to submit both a hard copy in-class on the due date as well as an electronic copy, emailed to the Instructor – both are to be of the same copy. These papers will build directly upon the feedback received on the research proposals and should present a well-researched, argued, and written analysis of the student’s topic and argument. The research paper should utilize at least eight sources, including two academic articles.
