I attached 4 files.

One is an explanation of this assginment

One is an sample of research paper

One is my annotated bibliography

one is my experience of service learning.

You will write about a social issue that i picked as a topic.

Therefore, you need to read my annotated bibliography and my experience of service learning and will write this research paper based on my annotated bibliography and my experience of service learning. You also have to cite sources as well. 

Please follow the instruction. 

The thesis template we encourage students to use in this class is as follows:

Research suggests that __central claim__ because __main supporting point 1__, __main supporting point 2__, and __main supporting point 3__

So the thesis must be argument driven rather than just pass along information to the reader. It’s also a good idea to make sure, at this early stage, that there is ample research available to comfortably give you the ten credible sources you need for the paper.

TASK 1
Once you have gathered your ten sources, Task 1 asks that you write a short 150-200 word long paragraph about EACH source. All ten of these paragraphs will make take the same four ?steps? as they assess the sources you have chosen. Note that you will not go into much detail with any of these steps. The most you will write for each step will probably be no more than four or five sentences. Again, the total word count for all five steps will 150-200 words.

The first step is to offer a brief summary of the source (probably about four or five sentences). What are they key points of the source?

Then students will discuss the ?credibility? of the source (three or four sentences should do). Folks will most often discuss the author, but they might also talk about the organization that released the information or the publication that presented it. What makes this source reliable?

Finally, students must address the relevance of the source (about two sentences). How will the source be used in your essay? It is important to specifically mention your paper. Many students demonstrate relevance, for example, by discussing which section/main supporting point in the paper will be helped by the source.

TASK 2
Task 2 for Composition II is writing the paper itself. The paper is between 10 and 15 pages long, but that includes the title page and references pages. For many, then, this will mean that they must write 7 pages of essay in order to meet the 10 page requirement. As long as the 10 pages are reached, there should hopefully be enough detail in the paper.

Although the course does not require you to make an outline for the paper, I strongly encourage that you do. You can make the outline as detailed or brief as you like, but it should set out the organization of your paper clearly. The evaluators have a very precise structure in mind for your essay, and it goes back to the exact wording of your thesis statement:

Research suggests that __central claim__ because __main supporting point 1__, __main supporting point 2__, and __main supporting point 3__

The structure the evaluators are looking to see, then, is as follows:

Introduction ending in thesis

Section 1 based on Main Supporting Point 1 from the thesis

Section 2 based on Main Supporting Point 2 from the thesis

Section 3 based on Main Supporting Point 3 from the thesis

Conclusion restating thesis

It is very important to stick closely to this structure. I would also advise organizing your outline in enough detail that you break the three sections down into 3 or more sub-points for each section. This will help guide you effectively as you write, and will greatly reduce the risk of writer’s block. You may even want to make a note in the outline of where sources will be used in the paper. Use your outline then like a set of directions on a journey, closely following the path you have set from introduction to conclusion.

Remember the common conventions of academic writing, too, such as not using ?I, me, we, or you, etc? and keeping personal information and anecdotes to an absolute minimum.

Hello…My research topic is  the roles of oil companies in our economy. It is due in about 10 days.. These are are all the particulars…

The paper should have a logical flow to it, and make use of appropriate 

headings and subheadings. You should follow the suggested format described

below: (APA format)

1. Cover Page (1 page). Your report should include a cover sheet which 

should have: your name, the course name, the date, and the title of

your paper. Do not show the page number on this sheet.

2. Abstract (1page). Abstract should not exceed 200 words and should 

summarize the main point of your paper. Do not show the page number 

on this sheet.

3. Introduction (1 page). Start page numbering at

“1”. In the introduction you should:

– briefly introduce the economic issue to be analyzed;

– briefly describe the economic factors you will be utilizing in

your analysis;

– describe how your essay is organized, that is, what you are 

going to discuss in each of the following sections.

–

4. Discussion /Analytical Part (2-3 pages). It is recommended that you

break this part into several sections (and sub-sections) with appropriate

headings (sub- headings). In the discussion part, you should:

– carefully identify and describe the economic issue: What 

exactly does this mean?

Assess the positive and/or negative economic indicators: 

How may this information prove to be an 

incentive/deterrent for the economy?

– Analyze potential opportunities and threats that this information

poses for businesses: How are/should businesses respond to 

them?

5. Summary and Conclusion (1-2 pages). Your analysis should lead to 

reasonable conclusions.

6. Reference /Bibliography should include the references that you cite, but

also a listing of the material that contributed to your body of knowledge. A 

minimum of (4) four different sources is required for this paper. Where did

you look for answers? If it helped you, please include a reference. Use of 

information from outside sources that is not attributed will be considered

plagiarism. The consequences of academic dishonest are discussed in 

the Student Manual.

Reference/Bibliography section should give full information. Authors of

articles and books and material without specific authors or editors, such 

as government documents, bulletins, or newspapers, are to be listed 

alphabetically. Include page numbers only when appropriate.

Be sure to acknowledge the source of all information from outside

sources either in footnotes or in the text. In-text quotations must

correspond exactly with the in working, spelling, and punctuation. Page

numbers must be given. Changes must be indicated: use brackets to 

identify insertions; ellipsis dots (…) to show omissions. Also indicate

where emphasis has been added. Only lengthy quotations (more than 

50 words) should be separated from the text; such quotations must be

double-spaced and indented at the left margin. References

to authors in the text must exactly match those in the

Reference/Bibliography section.

8. Appendices. Here you should place your tables, graphics (such as bar 

charts, trend lines, etc.) and any other important materials.

The text of your essay (the text only, that is, not including Abstract, Table

of Contents, Bibliography/References, Tables, Charts, and other

appendices) should be 4-8 pages. The text must be double spaced, fully 

justified, font style=Arial/Microsoft Sans Serif/Times New Roman, point 

size=12, page setup is Portrait, and 1 inch margins.

Avoid overcapitalization and excessive underlining or italics for emphas
