Paper #3: Proposal

After conducting some initial research on our topics, we will write a proposal. The purpose of a proposal is to explain clearly what the question or problem within your topic is and to state how your idea will address that problem through research. The specific, primary audience of this paper will be me, since I have the authority to accept your topic idea and plan for moving forward on your research.

The proposal is meant to record your thinking about your topic and research progress. The proposal should be about two – three pages in MLA format and should answer the following questions:

Working title: ______________________________

Research Question. What is your overall research question? How does this research question relate to local, personal, or larger social and cultural issues?

Working thesis. what do you expect your overarching thesis/argument to be at this point, keeping in mind you can change it after further research? (Your thesis should essentially answer your research question).

Topic. In a word or phrase, what is your topic? What makes this a debatable or multi-sided issue? What are some counter arguments you can see surfacing in opposition to your stance? How will you counter these arguments?

Why is this topic important to you? Why is it important to others? What groups of people will be interested in reading about this topic? In which publications or types of publications could you envision scholarly writings about your topic appearing?

Current Research. In a sentence or two, provide a brief overview of your research so far. In one to three sentences, describe what your research will do. Try to complete this sentence: “My research is about…”

Next, cite at least two sources you have consulted so far in your research. What kinds of sources – periodicals (newspapers/magazines), scholarly journal articles, books, etc. – would be most useful to you based on your topic? Where can/will you find these sources?
