Argument Abounds

 Here is a copy of the assignment sheet which details the steps of the research paper process, due dates, etc:

Researched Position Paper Sequence

The issue proposal (1-2 typed, double-spaced pages), is due Monday, February 26th. Please review the assignment sheet for details.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN, you may want to explore the steps listed in Exercise D, page 24 of Wood. You are actually already being required to complete this process – this is why you are asked to read articles and complete reading log entries (the first two are due Wednesday, February 21st).

YOU WILL ALSO WANT TO BE SURE that you have used the “12 Tests of an Arguable Issue” (page 25) on your idea.

MORE DETAILED DIRECTIONS and a SAMPLE ISSUE PROPOSAL are located in Exercise G of Wood (page 26).

As always, feel free to ask questions if anything seems unclear!
