What hints or cautions would you give the writer as he or she develops the topic?

The Discussion Board (DB) is part of the core of online learning. Classroom discussion in an online environment requires the active participation of students and the instructor to create robust interaction and dialogue. Every student is expected to create an original response to the open-ended DB question as well as engage in dialogue by responding to posts created by others throughout the week. At the end of each unit, DB participation will be assessed based on both level of engagement and the quality of the contribution to the discussion.

At a minimum, each student will be expected to post an original and thoughtful response to the DB question and contribute to the weekly dialogue by responding to at least two other posts from students. The first contribution must be posted before midnight (Central Time) on Wednesday of each week. Two additional responses are required after Wednesday of each week. Students are highly encouraged to engage on the Discussion Board early and often, as that is the primary way the university tracks class attendance and participation.

If you are planning to use a repurposed or reused assignment, please let your instructor know about it. If an instructor is not made aware of work being repurposed or reused, an instructor will treat the assignment as a plagiarized task and may post an F grade until proof of originality is provided. Click here for more information.

The purpose of the Discussion Board is to allow students to learn through sharing ideas and experiences as they relate to course content and the DB question. Because it is not possible to engage in two-way dialogue after a conversation has ended, no posts to the DB will be accepted after the end of each unit.

Complete the following for this assignment:

  • Choose a topic for your argument or persuasive essay from the list provided in the Individual Project instructions.
  • Post your thesis and outline to the Discussion Board. Follow the model provided in the Individual Project instructions.
  • Post at least two follow-up responses to classmates. Each response should contain answers to the following questions:
    • Write down what you consider to be the essay’s thesis and respond to it.
      • Do you agree or disagree?
      • What experiences have you had that are related to the topic?
      • What hints or cautions would you give the writer as he or she develops the topic?
    • List the author’s three main points and describe how each is or is not related to the thesis.
    • Make at least 1 suggestion to improve the student’s outline.

The purpose of the Formal Sentence Outline is to help you organize, design, and outline your final Research Paper for this.

Formal Sentence Outline

Purpose:

The purpose of the Formal Sentence Outline is to help you organize, design, and outline your final Research Paper for this

course. Now that you have researched your topic and composed a review of literature that demonstrates your

understanding of the conversation surrounding your topic, you are ready to begin fleshing out your paper—one section at a

time. In the last three units of the course, you will write the remaining sections of your paper (introduction, body,

conclusion, and abstract), and this outline will guide you through that process.

Description:

In this 300-500-word, Formal Sentence Outline, you will organize and outline the project that you intend to write about for

your final Research Paper. If your Formal Sentence Outline is less than the word count, it is likely you have not fully

developed your outline or adhered to the assignment appropriately, and this lack of development can severely impact your

grade for this assignment. Your outline will include the elements listed below.

Your Formal Sentence Outline should also include a list of references in APA style and should adhere to APA convention

throughout for in-text citation and style.

Elements:

Your grade is largely based on your inclusion of the following elements, as well as your development of the project. For a

model, you might want to refer back to pp. 465-467 of Strategies for Writing Successful Research Papers. Your outline

must contain the following elements.

1. Cover page and APA formatting:

You should include an APA-style cover page for your Formal Sentence Outline. See the example on page 16 of

The CSU APA Guide (6th edition). Your cover page should include the following: the title, your name, and the

name of your university (Columbia Southern University). The running head should include up to 50 characters from

the title of the paper, along with a sequential page number in the upper right-hand corner.

The entire outline should be double-spaced throughout, without additional spaces between sections.

2. Thesis:

The thesis statement should be provided at the beginning of the outline, and it should be labeled “Thesis,” followed

by a colon. The thesis statement should be an argumentative statement that embodies the argument of your paper.

Please see the directions for double-checking the argumentativeness of your thesis statement in the lecture for

Unit V.

When writing your outline, make certain that every topic and subtopic is written as a complete

sentence. Additionally, it is required to include in-text citations within your outline. For instance, one of your

subtopics may be a direct quote; therefore, you would place an in-text citation at the closing of the sentence just

as you would do if it were written in essay form. For example:

I. Hybrid vehicles are far inferior to our country’s available technology.

A. Electric cars are more energy efficient and do not have tailpipe pollutants.

1.Nissan CEO, Carlos Ghosn (2008), states, “I want a pure electric car. I don’t want

a range extender that still uses oil. That is unsustainable” (para. 2).

Furthermore, any in-text citation will also have a correlating reference entry listed on the reference page. For the

purpose of this outline, you will only reference the sources, which have in-text citations to match (in the

outline). In later drafts, you will include every source that you used in your essay on your reference

page. However, the outline only requires that you reference sources that were used solely in the outline.

EH 1020, English Composition II 10

3. Headings and subheadings:

You must include at least four headings in your outline, indicated by Roman numerals (I, II, III, IV). Each of these

headings must have at least two subheadings, indicated by capital letters (A, B, C). The best outlines will break

down these subheadings into topics, indicated with numerals (1, 2, 3).

 

 

 

 

 

A framework for an outline might look like the one below:

 

 

 

Thesis: Hydrogen cars might be the future’s best hope for an environment-friendly family vehicle, but the

unstable nature of the hydrogen that powers them is not worth the risk of personal injury.

I. There have been a number of alternative cars designed in the last decade, but none that are as

efficient as the hydrogen models. (Heading)

A. Efficiency for alternative car models means production costs do not exceed the financial strain

of consumers. (Subheading)

1. Hybrid cars are not as efficient as electric cars. (Topic)

2. Electric cars place undue energy demands on society. (Topic)

B. Subheading 1.2

What are the possible or probable outcomes of the risks that you identified as occurring as they relate to the whole community and, in greater detail, to the specific infrastructure you selected?

Community Risk Analysis

Select a community other than the one where you live, and develop a risk assessment. Address the following in 4–6 pages:

  • Describe (briefly) the community and why you selected it (e.g., demographics, topography/geography, climate, criticality of CI, political issues).
  • Outline the risk portfolio of the selected community (e.g., flood zones; high-value terror target).
    • How did you compile that list?
  • What other risk portfolios and assessments for the community exist (e.g., local hazard mitigation plan, DHS assessments)? Explain.
  • Describe the critical facility or system that you selected, and describe why it is critical to the selected community.
  • What are the possible or probable outcomes of the risks that you identified as occurring as they relate to the whole community and, in greater detail, to the specific infrastructure you selected? Explain in detail.
  • What are the possible or probable cascading effects at the local, regional, national, or international level should one of the risks occur and affect the critical facility or infrastructure you selected? Explain in detail.
  • Be sure to reference all sources using APA style.

Did you know that one of the fast food restaurants has a huge security department that is responsible for global security and an intelligence unit that tracks terrorism worldwide?

Research Strategy

Remember, this class is a culmination of all your classes at AIU, more especially, your Criminal Justice classes.The topic you select for your thesis should be carefully considered and one that can be covered in your limited amount of time while remaining interesting to you and your audience. Although you have received classroom instruction concerning the public sector careers, do not forget about the private sector careers. Did you know that one of the department stores has two forensics labs in the United States. One is in the western states and the other is located in the northeast, and both locations process fingerprints and other forensics evidence? Did you know that one of the fast food restaurants has a huge security department that is responsible for global security and an intelligence unit that tracks terrorism worldwide? Also, did you know that every professional sports team, most Fortune 500 companies, and amusement parks have security, quick response teams, and investigation teams? In the selection of your topic for your final project at AIU, examine all possible areas of interest both in the public and private sectors. Research topics of interest in which you would love to have a career.

Based on the feedback from your instructor and peers regarding your topic, finalize the thesis that you will pursue for your research. Now you will develop a research plan that will include the following:

  • Thesis statement: This statement presents the problem or issue you intend to research, and it should be clear and concise.
  • Hypothesis: This is a statement of prediction regarding the results of the problem or issue. Briefly identify your working solution to the problem. How might your working solution solve the problem? Be sure to note that your working solution will evolve through continued research and analysis.
  • Measurement and analysis approach: Define the key points that you will research and explain how you will gather and analyze the data you find. Intend to incorporate information related to technology and crime statistics that apply to your issue.
  • Applicable resources: Identify 5 sources that you have found that are the most relevant and best support your purpose statement. List the sources and then record the main idea as notes to use as part of your research later. Identify case studies, library, Web, and other scholarly resources.
  • Ethical standards: What are your ethical and legal responsibilities to ensure that your final report will be of the highest ethical standards?
