• Link (Word doc): Con-Position Proposal Template
• Minimum of 3 new articles (academic or credible online sources different from Weeks 1 & 2 articles)

• Link (website): APA Citation and Writing (Links to an external site.)

Instructions
For this assignment, you will select a topic different from the pro topic you worked on in Weeks 1-2. Conduct research on the topic and locate articles that takes a clear con position.

Next, develop a con-position proposal for this new topic. The goal of the proposal is to create a working thesis statement and basic research plan that considers context, audience, purpose, and presents potential sources. A proposal is not an outline, as it does not structure the paper. Rather, a proposal offers direction for research needs and gives your professor an opportunity to provide feedback before the drafting process.

Access the Con-Position Proposal Template and complete the six required sections:

• Subject
• Research Question
• Claim
• Research Plan
• Synthesis Matrix (Add the 3 con sources.)
• Reference Page

For an example proposal, refer to pages 269-270 of our textbook.

• Length: 1 to 1.5 pages (not including title page & reference page)
• 1-inch margins
• Double spaced
• 12-point Times New Roman font
