Step 1: Secondary Research Exploration<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Develop research for your proposed solution to homelessnes in Houston, TX  You will need to find sources to support and\/or explain the different parts of your proposal: <\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  • your proposed solution and justification<\/span><\/li>\n
  • alternative solutions (previously suggested or tried) and their drawbacks<\/span><\/li>\n
  • possible counter-arguments\/objections and your rebuttal<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Conduct some initial secondary research through reliableweb sources, looking for new, relevant secondary sources.  You might explore:  <\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    • Scholarly studies and peer-reviewed journal articles <\/span><\/li>\n
    • Local news sources that pertain to your local, professional, or academic community<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Official documents (e.g., government document from a city, county, state or federal; financial document from a corporation; corporate memo or university press release)<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Articles and other material generated from community leaders or experts in the field.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Find at least five <\/span><\/span>new<\/strong>, relevant, and credible sources from the web.<\/span><\/p>\n

      Step 2: Secondary Research Annotation<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

      For each secondary source you identified in Step 1: <\/span><\/p>\n

        \n
      • Cite the source using APA formatting.<\/span><\/li>\n
      • Directly under the source, write a paragraph that:<\/span><\/li>\n
          \n
        • Summarizes the main points of the source.<\/span><\/li>\n
        • Evaluates, explains, and justifies the credibility of the source. <\/span><\/li>\n
        • Explains the relevance and applicability of the source for your project.  Why is the source important to use?  How is it relevant to your argument?  How might you use it in your project?  In which specific section of your argument might you use it for support?<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/ul>\n

          Step 3: Primary Research (Optional)<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

          First, decide how you are going to approach the primary research for Project 2.<\/span><\/p>\n

            \n
          • Indicate who the decision-maker or decision-making body in the community is to implement your proposed solution.<\/span><\/li>\n
          • Indicate whether you will interview or survey them.<\/span><\/li>\n
          • Draft at least 5 questions you will ask stakeholders, indicating whether they will be for an interview or a survey, in order to develop a more thorough view of the solution. <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

            Step 4: Thesis<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

            Craft a thesis for your solution proposal. The thesis in this argument should<\/span><\/p>\n

              \n
            • state your main claim (the solution you are proposing)<\/span><\/li>\n
            •  2-3 audience-appropriate reasons in support of it (i.e., reasons geared towards your audience’s values and beliefs that will be most convincing for them)
              <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

              Requirements<\/h2>\n
                \n
              • 5 secondary references in APA format with paragraph-long annotations<\/span><\/li>\n
              • 5 questions for the decision-maker(s) for either an interview or survey (optional)<\/span><\/li>\n
              • A working thesis that states the proposed solution and supporting reasons<\/span><\/li>\n
              • Either PDF or Microsoft Word-compatible format<\/span><\/li>\n
