1. Research Question and Working Thesis

******Would the United States benefit from Universal Health Care*****

Keep in mind: The research question and working thesis are the driving force behind your research and eventual argument.

? Your research question should be a single sentence, framed as a question. ? Your working thesis should be a single focused sentence, framed as a statement that takes a clear position on the research question. ? Include your research question followed by your working thesis.

2. Detailed Outline

Keep in mind: Your detailed outline provides a map of the argumentative research essay that you will write, including your key claims and the sources that support them. You may not have all your sources yet, and that is fine. The outline is a way to organize your essay and determine which areas (e.g. your sub-points) will require researched evidence as support.

? Headings: one for each paragraph with a brief label of the paragraph’s controlling idea(s).

? An introduction, at least five body paragraphs, and a conclusion.

? Introduction includes your working thesis.

? Body paragraphs should each have their own unique title and key points.

? Conclusion includes notes on your final thoughts.

? Subheadings: two to five for each paragraph, below each heading, indicating key points that support the controlling idea

? Sources: one to three for each paragraph, as relevant, indicating the support for the key points

? For each source, include the author’s name and the idea or information relevant to your argument (e.g. “Lappé on mono-cropping corn/soy and production”).

3. Annotated Bibliography

Make sure to:

? Alphabetize the entries, according to APA style.

? Include the required bibliographic information in APA format for each entry.

? Include 3-4 sentences for each entry that provide a short summary of the source and how you plan to use it to support your argument.

? Include at least seven entries in your annotated bibliography, all of which must be credible, academic sources.

? Choose your own sources, but use no more than three websites (there is no limit on the number of online journals used). ? Thoroughly check the formatting requirements for the different source types.
