  • “Assessing Bias in Sources for a Persuasive Essay: An Overview of the Research Process”

    Overview
    The research process is an important part of writing a persuasive essay. As you begin your independent research and gather sources to support your topic, part of the research process is assessing your sources for bias and considering how bias in your sources will impact your persuasive essay argument. As you consider bias in your sources, remember that bias is a prejudice for or against something, and bias can be positive or negative.
    Directions
    In this journal assignment, you will start by reiterating your topic and research question and identifying your audience. Then, you will share two sources from your independent research and examine them for bias.
    Specifically, you must address the following:
    List credible and relevant sources you found in the Shapiro Library during your independent research.
    Include two sources that you find from your independent research.
    Include the link to both sources. Alternatively, you can practice using attribution conventions to cite sources by writing a citation for each source using APA or MLA conventions. While you will not be graded on the accuracy of this citation, this is a great opportunity to practice citing sources using the citation format you chose to use in this course. Remember, you will need to use the format you chose in Module One for the duration of the course, including all assignments and the project.
    Evaluate your sources.
    Describe how each source supports your topic and how it can help answer your research question.
    Discuss why you trust the credibility of your sources and/or what questions or doubts you have about the information presented in your sources.
    Discuss how you think your audience will view the credibility of your sources for your argument.
    Explain the bias found in each source.
    Explain how the bias or lack of bias in each source impacts your argument.
    Explain how you think your audience will respond to the bias or lack of bias in each source.
    What to Submit
    Submit your journal as a 1- to 2-page Microsoft Word document with double spacing, 12-point Times New Roman font, and one-inch margins. Sources should be cited according to either APA style or MLA style.

  • “Poems of Justice”

    Hide Assignment Information
    Turnitin™
    This assignment will be submitted to Turnitin™.
    Instructions
    Compose one original poem:
    You may select to write an original poem on one of these motifs: 
    Social Justice
    Racial Justice
    Environmental Justice
    After carefully reviewing “poems of witness,” create and upload your Social-, Environmental-, or Racial-justice-themed poem.  
    Your poem should be a min. of 14 lines, include imagery, precise diction, and other poetic devices/techniques. 
    Although you are making a statement through this poem, the work’s poetic power will speak loudly to the issue/message–so avoid overstating or “messaging” to the detriment of the poem.  Understatement and the subtlety of imagery go a long way toward creating meaning.  
    Look over these diverse poems of witness:
    “Rosa Parks” – Nikki Giovanni, poet and Civil/Human Rights activist
    “The Asians Dying” – W.S. Merwin, poet and Viet Name War protestor
    “The Right Whale” – Claudia Emerson, poet and advocate for the Environment
    Submit your poem in this assignment folder as a Word file attachment.
