book is society into focus: An introduction into society by William E. Thompson, Joseph V. Hickey, and Mica L. Thompson

Instructions:

Pick one real-life social issue which impacts an under-served community in your local community. Learners are encouraged to consider communities, populations and groups in which they take an interest or that resonate with them in some way. Once learners have identified the community, population, or group in which they have an interest and a common issue that impacts their lived experiences, learners will explore the common issue. Each member of the group must pick one sociological perspective Functionalism, Conflict Theory, Feminist, or Symbolic Interactionism and explain the issue from that perspective.

below are some materials

Step 2. Write an Argumentative Essay

Remember the word argument does not mean a fight in a writing context. An academic argument is more like a thoughtful conversation between two people with differing viewpoints on a debatable issue. However, you are required to take a position on one side of a debatable issue that is informed by academically appropriate evidence.

For the purposes of this assignment, expressing or relying on your personal opinion of a debate is discouraged. Rather, the essay must argue one side or stance of the debate using the rhetorical appeals (logos, ethos, and pathos) and be supported by academic or scholarly sources. These include physical sources in public libraries, digital sources in academic libraries, online sources (excludes unreliable sources like procon.org and wikipedia.org, which are discouraged), and published expert reports, preferably peer-reviewed by experts in the field to maintain utmost credibility. Consider revisiting the tutorial for more information on appropriate sources for argumentative writing.

Your submission must include an APA style in-text citations and a reference page following the essay. In your research, you will need at least 2 and no more than 4 credible primary or secondary sources to use as support in your essay.

• All sources cited in the writing submitted must be locatable by a grader; include hyperlinks to the sources in the reference page.
• The use of any source that requires payment for access is strictly prohibited for this assignment.
• Avoid using sources that exceed 20 pages in length, as they may be overly extensive for the purposes of this assignment.
• Including more than four sources may cause delays, and you might be asked to provide additional evidence of the credibility for each source.

Thia will be helpful to you as you work on this assignment.

Step 3. Think About Your Writing

On a separate page, below your reference page, include thoughtful answers to the Think About Your Writing questions. References and Think About Your Writing questions are NOT included in the word count for this essay.

Below your reference page, include answers to all of the following reflection questions.

1. What have you learned about how to present a strong argument? How could/will you apply this knowledge in your professional or everyday life (3-4 sentences)? Sophia says: Think about the specific skills and techniques that you used while developing and writing your essay. What tools will you take with you from this experience?
2. Consider the English Composition I course as a whole. What have you learned about yourself as a writer (5-6 sentences)? Sophia says: What did you learn that surprised you? Is there anything that you have struggled with in the past that you now feel more confident about?

Step 4. Review Rubric and Checklist

Your composition and reflection will be scored according to the Touchstone 4 Rubric, which evaluates the argumentative topic and thesis statement, argument development and support, organization, flow, research, style, use of conventions (grammar, punctuation, etc.), and your answers to the Think About your Writing questions above.

Refer to the checklist below throughout the writing process. Do not submit your Touchstone until it meets these guidelines.

Are all of the details relevant to the purpose of your essay?

Have you included a hyperlink to each source in the reference page?

Organization and Flow

Review the videos below and discuss three things that you learned that you should not do or say during a job interview.

In last weeks discussion, we identified possible research paper topics and research questions. Now its time to make a definitive decision about your papers topic and get started on your research. Submit a Microsoft Word document (.doc or .docx) only. Submissions in any other format, such as PDF, will not be accepted. Please ensure you use the correct file type before submitting.

Review these readings from last weeks discussion if necessary:

Now create a document that answers the following questions, devoting a 3-5 sentence paragraph to each:

• What topic have you decided to write your research paper on, and why have you chosen this topic?
• What is your research question, and what do you think your research will reveal as a possible answer to this question? Feel free to speculate here and touch on a few possibilities.
• What is one source (from the web or library databases) that provides useful background information on your topic or research questions, and how might you use it in your research paper? Provide a link.
