This is my week 4 assignment. The topic of my paper is” Civility in America”  

 It’s time to develop your tentative thesis statement and subtopics for the body of your research.    You may have noticed your ideas about your topic have changed or even been challenged due to your research. You’ll need to develop a solid thesis statement. The thesis statement is typically the last sentence of your introduction. A thesis statement is not your opinion or a matter of fact, it is a clear and concise statement (argument) that you support in your paper (see example thesis statements).    Subtopics are the headings that identify the main body of your research. You need to create 3-5 subheadings based on the research you have done. For example, a student studying the effects of overtime on nursing staff burnout might have collected research that leads to three subheadings: Statistics of Nursing Overtime, Causes of Nursing Burnout, and  Psychological Effects of Burnout.    Note** The subheadings in your research do not include your conclusions or inferences, they simply synthesize and present the information from the research you have collected into coherent sections. Do not present results in your subheading sections. We will present results in our draft paper next week.    Criteria for Thesis & Subheadings:    · Title  · Introduction (this may come from week 1) – include your tentative thesis statement  · 3-5 subheadings – include topic sentences that describe what is covered under each subheading and transition sentences that lead to the next subheading  · References – Include references used in this paper    Your completed assignment should be written third person and should be 3-5 pages in length (not including title page and references). Your assignment should use APA style formatting.

Read the

directions

for this assignment, so you meet the criteria. You’ll need to develop a solid thesis statement.  The thesis statement is the last sentence of your introduction.  A thesis statement is not your opinion or a matter of fact, it is a clear and concise statement (argument) that you support in your paper (

see example thesis statements

). Use the

thesis generator

to help develop your thesis statement. You need to create 3-5 subtopics based on the research you have done. This is the body of your research. Replace the subtopic headings below with your subtopic labels. For example, a student studying the effects of overtime on nursing staff burnout might have collected research that leads to three subtopics: Statistics of Nursing Overtime, Causes of Nursing Burnout, and Psychological Effects of Burnout. Fully develop these sections. Delete these instructions before you save and submit your work.

Provide a brief introduction identifying your topic area, your two disciplines, and a working thesis statement on the position you are taking in this project. Your thesis statement must be clear and is usually the last sentence of your introduction.

Subtopic 1

Replace Subtopic 1 with your subtopic title. Include a topic sentence that describes what is covered under this subtopic. Fully develop this section based on the results you have conducted for this project (typically 2-3 paragraphs). Your subtopics should be related to one or both disciplines and it should be clear how this subtopic supports your thesis statement. This subtopic section needs to be fully supported with evidence (citations and references) from your research. Do not draw conclusions or inferences in this section, only provide the synthesized information from your research. You will draw conclusions that lead to your thesis statement in the discussion section of the draft paper next week. Provide a transition sentence at the end of this section that leads to the next subtopic.

Subpoint 2

Repeat the directions from subtopic 1 for your subtopic 2 section.

Subpoint 3

Repeat the directions from subtopic 1 for your subtopic 3 section. Include more subtopics if needed.

Conclusion

A brief conclusion to highlight the key points. Revisit your thesis statement and subtopics that will be covered in the research paper.
