This assignment is not meant to be an autobiography. It is an exercise where you attempt to explain a phenomenon with the theories learned in class. Do not conduct interviews or participant observations in order to collect data for this paper. You do not have ethical clearance.
This assignment is meant for you to analyze something meaningful to you. You can choose a topic relating to a personal experience, a newspaper article or a broad societal topic (you can email me with questions about topics). You can also use the same topic discussed in your proposal. The essay must have an argument that is supported through different types of evidence and theory. Your essay can be trans formative. This means you can present possible solutions to the problem addressed. To ensure conceptual clarity. Please make sure to explain your understanding of concepts, theories, and ideas.
Essay Instructions: You must use at least four articles from the course syllabus and three external sources. External sources are to be from academic journals or books (no Wikipedia etc.). If in doubt, please ask. Beside the scholarly citations feel free to use news articles and other sources to support and contextualize your work. Please note: It is not sufficient to simply quote one definition in the paper, the concepts from the class must be used consistently throughout the paper.
The essay must be double spaced, using 12pt Times New Roman font, and 1 inch margins. It must also include a reference page. Make sure all the sources in your essay are in your bibliography and vice versa.
Essay Structure: A good essay is clear and to the point. It has an introduction that draws the reader to your topic and introduces your research question/argument /hypothesis/thesis. Make an argument, you want to ensure that the reader has a clear understanding of where you stand on the issue and the steps you will take to prove your point. In the body of the paper you want to explain concepts pertinent to your topic. The rest of your paper develops your argument by providing evidence (from other authors, examples etc.) in support of your argument. Make sure you provide a conclusion. The conclusion can be a way for you to sum up what you have argued as well as to make recommendations for change.
