Week 1 - Discussion 1




What Is an Argument?

Prepare


As you prepare to write your first discussion this week, take a few moments to do the following:


Read “An Introduction to Argument.”

Read the sample essay, “Flag Burning.”

Review the grading rubric for this discussion.




Reflect


Before drafting your initial post, take time to reflect on the idea of argument in an academic setting. Think about your own natural communication style and your typical behavior in an argument. Are you typically calm and logical when making an argument? Do you tend to appeal to emotion? Do you often get frustrated when trying to prove your point? Think critically about your personal communication style and its effectiveness in an academic setting.





Write (due Thursday, Day 3)


In 200 to 300 words, describe argument in your own words. Include the roles of the four basic elements of an argument in your description. Give an example of an argument you have experienced and identify the claims, evidence, counterargument, and rebuttal used.


If you cannot think of an example from your own life, you may analyze the persuasive student paper, Flag Burning, from the Ashford Writing Center instead. You must identify claims, evidence, counterarguments, and rebuttals present in the student paper.

Be sure to include any questions or confusion you have regarding rhetoric, argument, and the Classic/Rogerian styles.




Respond to Peers (due Monday, Day 7)


In 125 to 200 words each, respond to at least two classmates. In each response, address your classmate’s questions and concerns with information from class and your own research or web search. Then, analyze your classmate’s description of argument and provide additional information or share examples of the basic elements of an argument.








Week 1 - Discussion 2




Argument, Keyword, and Thesis Statement Workshop

Prepare


As you prepare to write your second discussion for this week, be sure to complete the following:


Read Chapters 1, 3, 4.2, and Appendix A in the textbook.

Read “Research Paper Guidelines.”

Read “An Introduction to Argument.”

Review the Ashford University Library’s Nitty gritty: Generating keywords tutorial.

Review the Ashford University Library’s Quick ‘n’ dirty tutorial.

Review the grading rubric for this discussion.




Reflect


Before drafting your initial post, take time to reflect on the approved research topics for your final paper. Considering the information in this week’s instructor guidance and readings, choose the research topic that suits you best. Choose a topic that is interesting, has a clear argument, and allows you to remain objective. We will be using research and logic to support our arguments in this class. It may be difficult to remain objective if you feel emotionally or spiritually connected to the subject.





Write (due Thursday, Day 3)


In 200 to 300 words, share your chosen research topic for this class and write a few sentences on each of the following:


Share the kind of argument you hope to make and why.

Identify five to ten keywords for your library research and explain your choices.

Write a single-sentence thesis statement for your research paper and compare it to the “Thesis Checklist.”

Include any areas of confusion or questions you have for the class and/or your instructor.




Respond to Peers (due Monday, Day 7)


In 125 to 200 words each, respond to at least two classmates. Provide feedback on any area of confusion and answer any questions your classmate has posted. Support your responses with information from the course materials (including the textbook), instructor guidance, articles, Ashford University Library, and Ashford Writing Center. Be sure to include


A detailed explanation of why you agree (or disagree) with your classmate’s chosen style of argument for the research paper topic chosen.

Suggestions for additional library search keywords for your classmate’s research paper topic.

An analysis of your classmate’s thesis statement according to the textbook, the Ashford Writing Center, and other course materials.

Make every effort to read all posts and responses in this discussion. You are strongly encouraged to follow up with classmates who have responded to your post. As always, you may respond to more than two classmates if you choose.

Week 1 - Assignment




Annotated Bibliography


An annotated bibliography begins the preliminary research process. The document will serve as an ongoing list of sources that will support your Final Research Paper. Each of the sources should be cited in APA format (for help, click on APA Formatting Instructions for Microsoft Word) and should include a two-paragraph summary, or annotation, of the resource contents and how you intend to use the information within your paper. Be sure to utilize the information from this week’s Argument and Thesis Workshop discussion, and refer to “Research Paper Guidelines” for additional support. Before beginning, please review the Model Annotated Bibliography.


To fulfill the research component of this assignment, you must:


Conduct several searches using any of the databases in the Ashford University Library.

Select at least five scholarly peer-reviewed sources from your library search that support the topics and arguments you plan to present in your Final Research Paper.

To fulfill the written component of this assignment, you must:


Include a title page that is formatted in proper APA style.

List APA-style references in alphabetical order along with your unique paragraph summaries.

Annotation paragraphs must be original and cannot be copied from abstracts or other summaries. Copied-and-pasted annotations may receive a zero grade.

Format your assignment according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center. Your annotated bibliography should be double-spaced with one-inch margins and use 12-point Times New Roman font.

Your annotations should contain


A complete summary, in your own words, of the information presented in the article.

Your analysis of the best use of this information in your paper, written in your own words.

Identification of a possible topic sentence and/or claim the information will support.

The bibliography must be 500 to 700 words in length and formatted according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.


Submission Information: Complete the tasks above and save the document as a Microsoft Word or compatible .doc or .docx file. Submit your assignment via the Assignment Submission button.
