After you have read and seriously thought and considered the ideas in that text, it is time to write a 400 word proposal. Formal proposals call for you to identify an issue as a problem and present a solution to the problem. For this course, the proposal is a pre-writing activity for the researched argument essay. Thus, the problem you will need to identify is what you don’t know about your research topic and how you plan on solving that problem through research. In 400 words, propose why you should research a certain topic for your argumentative essay addressing the following issues: 1. Significance of the topic: What do you already know about the history of the topic, the topic’s affects, etc. 2. Two sides of the argument: identify the two sides of the argument, and where you expect to position yourself in this argument. What reasons does each side provide as support for their position? 3. Explain your position on the argument. Be sure to explain the logic of your choice rather than the emotions that drove you to accept this position. Remember that you need to provide valid, logical reasons rather than rely simply on the rightness or wrongness of an issue. 4. The type of research you plan to complete: What specific journals, books, etc. will you consult? Do not simply state you will search the internet and/or the library. I want specific titles of magazines, newspapers, journals, books, and websites and why you plan to consult these specific references. You should also include the key terms you will use while searching various search engines.

Important: You should write this as a coherent piece of text with properly constructed sentences and paragraphing; and it should have a logical flow through the different points of discussion You may find it easier to compose and edit your reflection using a word processor such as MSWord; this will allow you to readily move information around and edit it as you go.
