English 122: Composition II
Research Paper Guidelines
You will spend five weeks completing a 5-7 page academic
argument in APA style. Each week is devoted to
one phase of the academic writing process:
1. Topic Selection & Beginning Research
2. Pre-Writing & Organization
3. Draft Writing
4. Revision
5. Final Draft
Week 1: Topic Selection & Beginning Research
Select a topic from the list of approved topics that begins on
page two of this document. You will be working
with the same topic for the next five weeks. Choose a topic that
is interesting but be wary of topics that elicit a
strong emotional response. We will be writing an objective
academic paper in third-person perspective, which
may be difficult if you feel too personally connected to the
topic.
As you begin to gather research on the topic, start organizing
your work into an annotated bibliography. You
will submit your annotated bibliography for grading and
feedback at the end of Week 1. You will use a working
thesis statement to guide you. These items may need to be
revised before you move forward.
Week 2: Pre-Writing & Organization
After gathering sufficient research, you will begin to build a
credible argument about the topic, which may
require revisions to your working thesis statement. You will
submit an outline of your academic argument for
grading and feedback at the end of Week 2. The outline may
need to be revised before you move forward.
Week 3: Draft Writing
You will utilize your annotated bibliography and outline as
tools to write a rough draft essay. The annotated
bibliography provides you with your research notes while the
outline guides you through the structure of your
argument. You will submit a rough draft of your academic
argument for grading and feedback at the end of
Week 3. You will have time to fully revise your draft over the
remaining two weeks of class.
Week 4: Revision
The revision process contains a number of steps that may
overlap and repeat. This includes additional research,
more writing, proofreading, editing, and content revision. You
must consider and apply the feedback you
received throughout class as you revise your rough draft. You
are expected to use Week 4 as an opportunity for
careful and thorough revision.
Week 5: Final Draft
The final week of class will culminate in the submission of your
Final Research Paper. This is the final,
complete, error-free version of your academic argument. The
final draft is worth 30% of your final grade in this
class.
P a g e | 2 of 6 2015.09
Writing Prompts – Select One for this Class
Prompts have been organized by subject area. Please review all
options before making your final selection and
consider selecting a topic from your field of study/major.
Business
1. Some argue that a gender-based income gap is still present in
America today. Many sources state that
women make less money than men, regardless of length of time
on the job, experience, or education.
Research the debate about the alleged gender income gap and its
causes. If you find that a gender gap
exists, argue for at least one solution to this inequality. If you
find that a gender gap does not exist,
offer an argument that women are compensated fairly in
American workplaces.
2. Many business analysts allege that the music industry is
faltering due to outdated record label business
models, inefficient and overly complex artist contract
agreements, and other factors. Does current
research support this assessment? Can the music industry be
saved by altering its business practices or
does it need a complete overhaul? Argue whether or not the
music industry is indeed faltering, and
what can or should be done to improve the business model of
the music industry.
3. Telecommuting (working from home) is a growing trend in
the workplace. While there might be positive
impacts for the company and employee, there may also be
downsides. Research the business impact and
personal impact of telecommuting and argue a well-supported
position on the value of telecommuting
today. Is telecommuting a good business practice or is it a bad
business practice? Support your
position with evidence.
4. What is the impact of disposable products and packaging in
the marketplace and on the environment?
What should be the focus: impact on business or impact on
environment? Research the issues and
explain whether new government regulations should be
developed to curb over-packaging, or
persuade the reader to believe that the environmental hazards
are being overstated. Utilize credible
and scholarly sources to support the argument.
Communications & Liberal Arts
5. Examine the role of the media (e.g. films, television, the
news, websites, etc.) in shaping public opinion.
In what ways do the mass media influence public opinion,
understanding and prioritization of social and
political issues? Argue whether mass media outlets have a
negative for positive effect on public
opinion and what mass media should do to help Americans
become informed citizens.
6. Critics allege that social media, 24-hour cable channels,
paparazzi, and online tabloids have blurred the
lines between entertainment, big business, and journalism. Some
critics have also alleged that these media
outlets have also altered the way journalists fulfill their roles
and responsibilities to the American public.
Argue whether or not these media outlets can indeed be
considered “journalism” by comparing the
principles and ethics that traditional journalists subscribe to the
actions taken by alternative media
reporters and digital journalists.
P a g e | 3 of 6 2015.09
7. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has
published information regarding the
prevalence of childhood obesity in America today. Some critics
argue that advertising for junk food, fast
food, and sugary soft drinks are unethically targeting children
and teenagers. Are companies obligated to
adjust their business and advertising models to improve
society’s health? Should advertising directed at
children and teenagers be limited by government regulations?
Or, should companies have the right to
advertise in any fashion they like without government
interference? Argue whether or not the
businesses have, in fact, targeted children and teenagers, and
whether or not this should be an
allowable practice.
Education
8. Educational games have moved from a reward in education to
an accepted technique for teaching and
learning at all levels (Pre-K – higher education). Argue
whether or not educational games have value
in 21st century education and what the value may be. Explain
and support your view based on
scholarly sources published within the last five years.
9. Homeschooling has become a popular choice for many
families in America. Research the effects of
homeschooling on children and the efficacy of homeschool
education today. Argue whether or not
homeschooling is an appropriate educational experience for
children or if students are better served
by a traditional on-campus K-12 education.
10. Common Core State Standards are the newest standards in
the field of education. Research one state’s
Common Core State Standards and defend or refute the value of
the Common Core to better
prepare students for college, military, or the workforce based on
the evidence.
11. Distance learning, also known as online learning, has been
increasing as an alternative model of
education. Define and explain how this distance learning
environment is different from the more
traditional model of school. Research, discuss, and explain the
pros and cons of this type of
learning. Make your own argument either for or against online
learning for students and support
your viewpoint by using the credible and scholarly resource you
have found to support your
argument. Finally, explain why this is an important issue to
discuss.
12. Many public schools now require students to wear uniforms.
Discuss this topic by explaining some of the
possible reasons for or against this requirement. Argue whether
or not school uniforms should be a
requirement in public K-12 schools. Support your viewpoint
with relevant scholarly sources that
will support your reasons for making this argument. Finally,
discuss why this is an important issue
to consider.
Behavioral Sciences
13. Researchers have documented the physical impacts of
poverty, including issues of access to quality food
and availability of safe housing. In addition to the physical
impact, poverty can also have a long-lasting
social impact on the community and each individual. Argue
whether or not socioeconomic status
affects an individual’s ability to be socially mobile and provide
evidence to support your position.
P a g e | 4 of 6 2015.09
14. Discuss the meaning and role of gender equality and
women’s empowerment. What does it mean for
women to be empowered at work, in the home, and in higher
education? Consider sources that debate
women’s social and historical disadvantages. Argue whether
gender inequality remains a problem in
American society and address actions that should be taken to
tackle alleged power imbalances. Use
scholarly and credible research to form and support the paper’s
position.
15. “Systemic racism” and “institutional racism” are terms used
to describe racism that has been built into the
structure of a government and its social institutions. Research
the issue of systemic and institutional
racism in the United Stated. Identify the role and function of
legal, economic, political and/or
educational systems in perpetuating racism and argue for at
least one possible solution to curb
systemic and/or institutional racism in America today. Support
all claims with scholarly source
material.
Criminal Justice & Military Studies
16. Americans are afforded the right to peacefully assemble in
protest with certain limitations. Peaceful
protests may, however, escalate and result in criminal activity.
Argue whether or not the right to
peacefully assemble should be revised or whether it should
remain unchanged. Support the
argument with relevant scholarly and credible source material.
17. The American public has recently rallied to ask for body
cameras to be mandatory for all police officers to
provide evidence of misconduct in controversial cases. Others
have argued that body cameras should be
required to provide evidence of proper police action when
officer actions are questioned. Critics, however,
have raised concerns that body cameras violate privacy laws and
statutes. Argue whether police body
cameras are a solution for officers in the United States, risk a
violation to the privacy of American
citizens, or otherwise impact the relationship between law
enforcement and the community.
18. Cyberspace and its infrastructure (servers, cables, etc.) are
vulnerable to many risks. Cybercriminals have
the ability to operate from remote locations across the globe to
find vulnerabilities in the link between
cyberspace and physical systems/records and critical
infrastructure. Argue whether the Department of
Homeland Security doing enough to protect citizens from
cybersecurity risks or if there is more to
be done.
19. The trauma of war is not confined to military personnel.
War-affected children are left with many
physical, psychosocial, educational and security needs. Explore
what being done to address the mental
health needs of war-affected children. Then argue for future
steps that need to be taken to better
protect children in warzones.
Health Care
20. Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) maintain much
controversy when it comes to human health and
the environment. Discuss the main concerns about the effect of
genetically modified agriculture on
biodiversity and human health. Argue whether consumers have a
right to know if a product contains
genetically modified food and support your position with
academic sources.
P a g e | 5 of 6 2015.09
21. Health insurance is a program meant to assist people with
the cost of medical services and health-related
procedures. Argue whether access to affordable health insurance
should be the responsibility of the
individual, the government, or employers in the United States.
Support your position with credible
and scholarly evidence.
22. More women are being encouraged to participate in prenatal
genetic testing during their first trimester.
However, there is much debate about whether prenatal genetic
testing is appropriate for all pregnant
women due to the occurrence of misleading results and future
privacy concerns for the child. Research the
literature from the last five years and develop an argument
regarding the use of genetic screening. Argue
whether prenatal genetic testing should be a part of all prenatal
care or if it should be reserved for
those with preexisting conditions and/or high risk pregnancies.
23. The aging American population will require extra health and
human services in the near future. Some
experts have expressed concern that we are unprepared for the
population surge in the geriatric age group.
Develop an argument that explains the necessary steps for the
healthcare industry and the federal
government to take to prepare for the needs of aging Americans.
Support your position with
academic and scholarly source material.
Public Administration & Political Science
24. Examine two well-documented peace negotiations (e.g.
Geneva Convention, Treaty of Versailles, Paris
Peace Accords, etc.). What were the outcomes? Be sure to
discuss the complexities and any ongoing
efforts. Based on your research of two peace negotiations, argue
whether a non-violent approach is
beneficial in enforcing a peace treaty. Support your argument
with scholarly research materials.
25. Choose a statement or speech made by one of the
presidential candidates from a current election
campaign. Was the candidate completely truthful or did s/he
mislead the public? Argue whether or not
the candidate is a trustworthy and reliable future civil servant or
leader based on the statements
they made to the public. Be sure to incorporate multiple
credible and scholarly viewpoints to
explore all sides of the issue and refute the counterarguments.
26. Difficulties in the European Union have led to individual
nations undertaking austerity measures, which
are drastic cuts in government spending to prevent defaulting on
national and public-sector debt. Explore
what makes austerity measures unpopular and how they
influence the quantity and quality of government
services. Argue whether austerity measures are an effective
means for reducing deficit spending and
government debt or if they cause too much harm to the nation’s
citizens. Support your position with
credible and scholarly sources.
27. The United States entered World War II in 1941
immediately after the bombing of Pearl Harbor. The
nation mobilized for war as millions of men volunteered for
military service and consumer factories
converted to produce material. Americans bought bonds, grew
Victory Gardens, and lived with rationing
of food and consumer goods as well as recycling important
items like metals and rubber. Argue the ways
in which WWII created new employment opportunities for the
poor, women, and racial and ethnic
minorities in America despite the difficult material
circumstances.

Building on GEN 103
28. If you have taken the GEN 103: Information Literacy course
at Ashford University, you developed a
research question and began the process of researching a topic.
Drawing on Chapters 1, 4, and Appendix
A in the textbook, turn your topic into a research question that
inspires argumentation. For instance, if you
researched, “What are the effects of bullying in public
schools?” your question might be: Should schools
implement a zero tolerance policy on bullying? Then, argue a
position with scholarly and credible
supporting evidence.
Note: If you select this prompt, you must share your research
question with your instructor for approval
by Thursday, Day 3, of the first week of the course.

challenges of pedigree dog health: Approaches to combating
inherited disease. Canine
Genetics And Epidemiology, doi:10.1186/s40575-015-0014-9
Summary of article: Since humans have selectively bred dogs
for physical and
behavioral characteristics through inbreeding, pedigree dogs can
be plagued by genetic
disease. This is particularly true for recessive genes that are not
mitigated through genetic
diversity. The only way breeders can ethically create healthy
litters is through ongoing
diagnostic screening of all dogs along with genetic testing
regardless of arbitrarily chosen
aesthetics of the animal.

Institute and the Royal
School of Veterinary studies in Edinburgh. Canine Genetics and
Epidemiology is an open

review before publication.
This is a scholarly source.
Reflection on article: Based on this evidence, I think I can
claim that pet stores do not
take the steps necessary to ensure healthy pets. In addition to
this evidence, I need to find
evidence of the actual requirements pet store have for their
breeders. If I find evidence
that they do not require diagnostic screening and genetic testing
of breeding animals, I
can claim that dogs from pet stores may be plagued by genetic
disease.

stars and dog breed popularity: A
case study in media influence on choice. PLoS One, 9(9), 1-5.
doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0106565
Summary of article: The researchers used data from the
American Kennel Club (AKC)
because it is the largest archive of dog registry information in
the world. The researchers
sampled the dog breed registration numbers filed with the AKC
between 1926 and 2005.
Using film archive databases, the researchers identified 87
movies featuring dogs
released in the United States between 1927 and 2004. The
influence of canine movie
“stardom” on dog registration numbers was measured following
statistical methods,
controlling for as many variables as possible. The researchers
found that dog breeds used
in popular movies have a statistically significant impact on the
popularity of the breed.
When a film starred a particular breed of dog, that breed
became more popular within the
AKC registry. This influence was stronger in the earlier years of
the data set, with less
influence in more recent years.

Reflection on article: Based on this evidence, I can make a
claim that desire for a pure-
bred dog may be based upon popular culture trends rather than
more rational or logical
decision-making processes.
Indrebø, A. (2008). Animal welfare in modern dog breeding
[Special Section]. Acta Veterinaria
Scandinavica, 50(56), 1-6. doi:10.1186/1751-0147-50-S1-S6
Summary of article: Indrebø argues that health should be a part
of breed standards.
Previously, breed standards were focused on aesthetics and
temperament with disregard
for health. Indrebø found that it will take “several generations
to change the breed
through genetic selection in order to eradicate the unhealthy
over-typed dogs” (pp. 1-2).
Indrebø recommends a screening program for all breeding dogs
in the development of
any breeding program and touches upon the need for a National
Disease Register. The
article contains a number of charts that illustrate the increasing
instances of genetic
disease in pedigree dogs over time. The article ends with a list
of ten recommendations
for every breeding program which includes only breeding very
healthy dogs, percentages
for breeding stock, a limit on “matador breeding,” excluding
female dogs who are unable
to give birth naturally, screening for polygenetic diseases, DNA
testing, and natural
puppy-rearing with its birth mother.

medical research and was rigorously peer reviewed by Bio Med
Central before
publication. It is a scholarly source.
Reflection on article: Based on this evidence, I can claim that
genetic disease is on the
rise. I can also claim that a responsible breeder must carry out a
large number of
recommendations to be a responsible breeder of pedigree
animals. In addition to this
evidence, I need to find evidence of the actual requirements pet
stores have for their
breeders. If I find evidence that they do not require breeders to
adhere to
recommendations outlined in this article, I can claim that dogs
from pet stores may be
bred unethically and without regard to the animal’s welfare.

Journal of Agricultural and
Environmental Ethics, 27(3), 417-430.
doi:http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s10806-013-9470-y
Summary of article: Jeppsson studied the health and wellbeing
of purebred dogs. She
found that some breeders consider health and wellbeing in their
breeding practices.
However, those efforts are generally ineffective because, she
says, “there are no
guarantees in breeding” (p. 419). She discusses the ethical duty
of breeders to not create
dogs with sickly or torturous lives through selective breeding
for qualities other than
health (such as appearance, coat type, size, etc.). Jeppsson
posits that the only way to
produce dogs with more wellbeing is to introduce genetic
diversity. Such action would
improve dog health and wellbeing but would hinder breed
preservation and conformation.
She calls for the end of breeding any sickly or unhealthy dog
breed while “loosening the

Environmental Ethics is a scholarly
journal and all publications are fully peer-reviewed. This is a

pound, is preferable for a
healthy and stable pet.

Summary of article: This article looks into widespread
legislation banning pet stores
from selling animals bred through commercial enterprises.
Large cities and counties
throughout the country have passed laws banning the sale of
animals produced in
breeding facilities. Some of the local laws allow for adoption of
rescue animals in pet
stores and the sale of some animals from small-scale breeders.
Assessment of article: The American Bar Association produces

on the current state of
puppy mill legislation.

Summary of article: Compose a paragraph that completely
summarizes the full article. State the main arguments, describe
each topic that is covered, and explain the research in your own
words. Make sure you are specific. This summary will help you
integrate your research later. The more complete and precise
your summary is now, the easier things will be later. Make sure
you state facts and figures accurately. You don’t need to worry
about in-text citations in an annotated bibliography (since
you’re clearly summarizing the source listed above), but be sure
to use quotation marks and write down page numbers if you’re
using a direct quote. It will help you avoid unintentional
plagiarism later.
Assessment of article: Describe the source. Who is the author?
What is the publication? How do you know it is credible, valid,
scholarly, and appropriate for an academic paper?
Reflection on article: What claims can you make based upon
this article? State a claim (e.g. Based on this article, I can claim
that red-haired dogs are better than white-coated dogs in 95% of
American households.) and explain how it fits into your overall
argument and how it fits your thesis statement (e.g. This claim
will support my argument by showing that the color of a dog’s
coat can serve as a visual cue for the appropriate “forever
home” placement.). These claims will be essential in helping
you build your argument. They will likely become your topic
sentences in the rough draft assignment.

ENG122 Composition II Research Paper Guidelines P a g e.docx

  • 1. ENG122: Composition II Research Paper Guidelines P a g e | 1 of 6 2015.09 English 122: Composition II Research Paper Guidelines You will spend five weeks completing a 5-7 page academic argument in APA style. Each week is devoted to one phase of the academic writing process: 1. Topic Selection & Beginning Research 2. Pre-Writing & Organization 3. Draft Writing 4. Revision 5. Final Draft Week 1: Topic Selection & Beginning Research
  • 2. Select a topic from the list of approved topics that begins on page two of this document. You will be working with the same topic for the next five weeks. Choose a topic that is interesting but be wary of topics that elicit a strong emotional response. We will be writing an objective academic paper in third-person perspective, which may be difficult if you feel too personally connected to the topic. As you begin to gather research on the topic, start organizing your work into an annotated bibliography. You will submit your annotated bibliography for grading and feedback at the end of Week 1. You will use a working thesis statement to guide you. These items may need to be revised before you move forward. Week 2: Pre-Writing & Organization After gathering sufficient research, you will begin to build a credible argument about the topic, which may require revisions to your working thesis statement. You will submit an outline of your academic argument for grading and feedback at the end of Week 2. The outline may need to be revised before you move forward.
  • 3. Week 3: Draft Writing You will utilize your annotated bibliography and outline as tools to write a rough draft essay. The annotated bibliography provides you with your research notes while the outline guides you through the structure of your argument. You will submit a rough draft of your academic argument for grading and feedback at the end of Week 3. You will have time to fully revise your draft over the remaining two weeks of class. Week 4: Revision The revision process contains a number of steps that may overlap and repeat. This includes additional research, more writing, proofreading, editing, and content revision. You must consider and apply the feedback you received throughout class as you revise your rough draft. You are expected to use Week 4 as an opportunity for careful and thorough revision. Week 5: Final Draft The final week of class will culminate in the submission of your Final Research Paper. This is the final, complete, error-free version of your academic argument. The final draft is worth 30% of your final grade in this
  • 4. class. P a g e | 2 of 6 2015.09 Writing Prompts – Select One for this Class Prompts have been organized by subject area. Please review all options before making your final selection and consider selecting a topic from your field of study/major. Business 1. Some argue that a gender-based income gap is still present in America today. Many sources state that women make less money than men, regardless of length of time on the job, experience, or education. Research the debate about the alleged gender income gap and its causes. If you find that a gender gap exists, argue for at least one solution to this inequality. If you find that a gender gap does not exist, offer an argument that women are compensated fairly in American workplaces. 2. Many business analysts allege that the music industry is faltering due to outdated record label business models, inefficient and overly complex artist contract
  • 5. agreements, and other factors. Does current research support this assessment? Can the music industry be saved by altering its business practices or does it need a complete overhaul? Argue whether or not the music industry is indeed faltering, and what can or should be done to improve the business model of the music industry. 3. Telecommuting (working from home) is a growing trend in the workplace. While there might be positive impacts for the company and employee, there may also be downsides. Research the business impact and personal impact of telecommuting and argue a well-supported position on the value of telecommuting today. Is telecommuting a good business practice or is it a bad business practice? Support your position with evidence. 4. What is the impact of disposable products and packaging in the marketplace and on the environment? What should be the focus: impact on business or impact on environment?

The American public has recently rallied to ask for body cameras to be mandatory for all police officers to provide evidence of misconduct in controversial cases. Others have argued that body cameras should be required to provide evidence of proper police action when officer actions are questioned. Critics, however, have raised concerns that body cameras violate privacy laws and statutes. Argue whether police body cameras are a solution for officers in the United States, risk a violation to the privacy of American citizens, or otherwise impact the relationship between law enforcement and the community. 18. Cyberspace and its infrastructure (servers, cables, etc.) are vulnerable to many risks.

  • 21. Summary of article: The researchers used data from the American Kennel Club (AKC) because it is the largest archive of dog registry information in the world. The researchers sampled the dog breed registration numbers filed with the AKC between 1926 and 2005. Using film archive databases, the researchers identified 87 movies featuring dogs released in the United States between 1927 and 2004. The influence of canine movie “stardom” on dog registration numbers was measured following statistical methods, controlling for as many variables as possible. The researchers found that dog breeds used in popular movies have a statistically significant impact on the popularity of the breed. When a film starred a particular breed of dog, that breed became more popular within the AKC registry. This influence was stronger in the earlier years of the data set, with less influence in more recent years. Assessment of article: Stefano Ghirlanda is a professor in the Department of Psychology
