    Task<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n

    The research-based argument is the culmination of your semester-long research project. In this paper, you will make an argumentative claim on a significant topic; this claim should be developed and supported by summarizing, analyzing, and synthesizing perspectives from sources. You will demonstrate your skill in articulating complex ideas, examining claims and evidence found in your research materials, supporting your ideas with relevant reasons and examples, sustaining a coherent discussion, and employing rhetorical strategies to convince your readers to agree with your stand on the issue <\/span>or<\/em> <\/span>at least to believe in the soundness and reasonableness of your position.<\/p>\n

    You will complete a <\/span>required rough draft <\/span><\/strong>of your research-based argument. The draft should be at least 1,000 words long and should include a working introduction, your argumentative thesis, parts of your argument including the counterargument or alternative perspectives, and a working conclusion. As a draft, it is perfectly acceptable for sections to be incomplete or missing, but the more writing you provide, the more feedback you will receive that will strengthen your final paper. The draft will be graded as Complete\/Incomplete. Your instructor will provide feedback on your rough draft that will help you revise your draft for the final assignment. If you do not turn in a rough draft, your final research-based argument will be penalized 20 points.<\/strong><\/p>\n
