CAP Overview

Your CAP by the numbers Identify 1 course theme. (Same as Topic and TOW assignments) Use 2 cultural artifacts. (Same as Topic and TOW assignments) Identify 1 issue present in the cultural artifacts that relates to theme Present 1 alternative position to the issue (to the one you will argue). Argue 1 position. Write 1 intro paragraph. Include a thesis that is between 1 and 3 sentences long. Place at end of intro paragraph. Write 4 body paragraphs. Include specific evidence from at least 1 cultural artifact in each body paragraph. Use 2 body paragraphs for each cultural artifact. Write 1 concluding paragraph. Restate thesis at start of conclusion. Complete an MLA formatted works cited with 2 sources -3 if you also used the Sayre text.

From course theme to issue To write an argumentative thesis Identify the course theme. What is problematic about your course theme? This is likely the issue. It must be debatable. There must be more than one way to think about the issue.

From Issue to Argument Identify at least two positions to the issue. Take one position that you can support with evidence from your two sources.

And? So? Avoid Expository statements

Avoid Expository Statements

Balance the use of evidence from both sources. Format, proofread, and submit the MS Word (.doc or .docx) file to webcourses. I will not grade the assignment if it has not passed through the turnitin system. This means do not use the text option for submission. Ensure your file went through the turnitin process by accessing your turnitin report. Call (407)-823-0407 for more information on how to access turnitin reports.

This is the End Seriously. That is all for now.
