How has the history of the first iron bridge in 1779 evolved how we design bridges now?
s The work or event must be at least 20 years old, since time tends to help us put events in perspective. The project will conta Academicin three parts: a research proposal, an annotated bibliography, and a research paper. All three parts of the project must use scholarly, peer reviewed research. The Research Paper should be about 8 pages, double-spaced, and follow these guidelines: Research Question—Base your argument on a “researchable” question (one that requires scholarly research in order to form an answer). Title—Create an interesting title that relates to your topic and argument. Introduction— An introduction should get the reader’s attention. Briefly introduce your topic before beginning your argument or background. Thesis—Have a central thesis or claim that states your answer to your research question. Summary—Briefly summarize the work or event. Background—Briefly summarize the relevant scholarship that’s been done on the work or event. Any sources referenced should be added to the Works Cited page. Body of Paper—Supply several persuasive reasons for your argument. Make use of the three persuasive appeals: ethos, pathos, and logos. Support with scholarly evidence. Evidence—Support your reasons with quoted or paraphrased evidence from your sources. Explain what the evidence means and how it relates to your argument. Follow the “Assertion, Evidence, Evaluation” method. Cite the quoted or paraphrased material. Paragraph Development—Provide a topic sentence for each paragraph, support with evidence or reasoning, and conclude the paragraph by explaining how it relates to your argument. Coherence—Connect each sentence to the one before and after, transitioning logically from one to the next. The goal is to make clear the relationship between each thought. Refutation—List the opposing argument(s) to your thesis, and explain why it/they did not persuade you. Any sources referenced should be added to the Works Cited page. Conclusion—Conclude your argument by summing up the importance of your evidence, and connecting to your introduction. Scholarly Sources—Use articles from scholarly, peer reviewed journals or books that you locate through the library databases. You may supplement with non-peer reviewed sources, but at least three must be scholarly. Citation and Documentation—Use MLA documentation for both in-text citations and Works Cited documentation. Use a mix of quotations and paraphrases. Avoid “patch work” writing that merely strings together summaries of sources paragraph after paragraph. Write your own thoughts, and cite evidence to support them, not to replace them. Spelling, Grammar, Punctuation, Mechanics—Proofread carefully.
