Compose a full and complete annotated bibliography that includes the 6 scholarly sources with which you are most likely to work as you begin drafting your essay. These may change later, as you will continually research during drafting to find more powerful sources and/or new ideas for support and opposition. You may use sources from previous assignments if you have read and re-read them and feel they are highly valuable at this point still. You will:
Compose a full, rich, detailed paragraph discussing the process you used in gathering and annotating your sources. The “Guidelines and Sample Annotated Bibliography Entry” document will guide you with required questions that you must answer for this paragraph.
Compose full APA References for six scholarly sources, ideally three that support your points and three that oppose them, but no fewer than two opposing sources.
Write a rich annotation for each source, according to best practices studied in your readings and according to the instructions on the ”Guidelines and Sample Annotated Bibliography Entry” document.
Keep in mind that your purpose is analytical. You will very briefly summarize the source in a single sentence, then move into the source’s credibility, relevance, timeliness, and usefulness, followed by detailing specific connections to your argument and points and to other sources, if applicable. By the time you have finished this assignment, you should have a very clear idea of how your argument and the conversation between your voice and your sources will play out. This assignment will also provide your instructor with a solid preview of the quality of your argument as a whole.
Before submission, proofread and edit carefully for APA, spelling, punctuation, and grammar. While you are strongly encouraged to utilize electronic proofreading and APA tools, that is just your first line of offense. You should then always perform your own careful proofreading, silently and aloud, asking others to proofread if possible.

Locate between seven to ten scholarly sources related to the specific focus of your topic.

/in /by

You MUST make sure the sources exist in the databases provided by the FTCC library before proposing a topic.
For this assignment, you will be required to locate between seven to ten scholarly sources related to the
specific focus of your topic. As you read the articles, pay special attention to the separate issues they raise as they relate to the topic–and to the stance of the article’s author(s) on that issue. You must identify at least four separate issues related to the topic. I would recommend opening a separate folder for note on each of these issues. Then begin taking careful notes, summarizing the views of each article on each of the four issues. Be sure you include the authors’ names with your notes so that you can distinguish among them when you write your final literature review, which should be about 1,000 words PLUS the references. Sources will be cited in APA style.
As you know, an outline is the schematic plan for a project that lists in hierarchical form its component parts. For this outline, you should list as Roman numerals the major sections of the literature review as found in the UNC materials and in the samples you have read. (Note: These sections will vary based on the topic you have chosen and the types of issues involved.) Once you get to the four or more issues you plan to discuss, list in your outline the varying perspectives from the sources included.

This outline should take some time and effort to produce; it will provide the plan for your entire project and should include enough details so that I can evaluate your plan before you start writing. Partial statements and incomplete sentences are not enough. Hastily written outlines or outlines written at the last minute without much thought will not be enough. Complete sentences are required.
If you need assistance with outlining, you might wish to review the information provided online by the Purdue OWL under “Developing an Outline.” This resource includes sections on components of an outline, how to prepare an outline, and samples of outlines. I will use this website to evaluate your outline.
The point value of the assignment (25) reflects its major importance in this project. Make sure to include full sentences. This should be an outline of your entire essay, including sources. You should include and cite all of the sources that will appear in the final draft of your literature review.

BEFORE YOU SUBMIT:
Ask yourself, “Does my outline discuss four issues related to the social sciences?”
Ask yourself, “Have I cited at least seven sources with in-text citations AND corresponding reference list citations?”
You will be responsible for a references list of your seven to ten sources.
You must identify four or more issues you plan to discuss in the literature review.
A detailed outline of your review–including sources.
The final literature review.
The Social Sciences
For this module, we will turn our attention to the social sciences, including for our purposes primarily psychology and sociology, but also such fields as economics, political science, and anthropology. The social sciences are defined as the academic disciplines concerned with “the institutions and functioning of human society and . . . the interpersonal relationships of individuals as members of society” (Merriam-Webster Online). As you can readily guess, these fields have much to offer the researcher interested in disabilities or disability studies. Psychologists study and treat those with mental disabilities as well as those whose other disabilities affect their emotional well-being. Sociologists are concerned with how the disabled fit into the larger society. Economists and political scientists could also be interested in the disabled as topics for their own research.

The Literature Review
Both the natural sciences and the social sciences place great emphasis on the type of scholarly research paper known as the literature review. As you will find when you begin the first assignm…

How has the writer improved, or changed, the material from the four-source essay to the six-source essay?

/in /by

Review the two sample student sample essays (attached files)
(Use APA 7th edition)
– compare the two documents.
– review the webpage, “Transitions” (Purdue OWL).
– Answer the following prompts and write your responses.
As noted, these essays aren’t perfect. The writer is still working to synthesize the sources. However, the Six-Source Essay adds some new material and other improvements.
After reading the two articles and the information on transitions, answer the following questions:
(1) Other than adding two new sources, how has the writer improved, or changed, the material from the four-source essay to the six-source essay?
(Answer in 1-3 sentences.) (E.g., “The writer’s thesis has become more focused, centering on . . .”)
(2) What sources has she added? What effect do the new source(s) have on the paper? (1-3 sentences.) (E.g., “The new sources serve to emphasize the writer’s point that . .
(3) Pick a paragraph section of the six-source essay where synthesis needs to be improved, and add an appropriate transitional phrase/sentence. (Hint: you might refer to paragraph 3.)
Consider the use of transitions, for example. Transitions are like signs for your readers. They give direction and they help to link things together. Good transitions move the reader from one point to the next, and they also focus the attention of the reader on the main idea of the essay. You can use words or phrases as transitions, but you must be careful to choose words that indicate the right relationship between ideas. Here are a few examples of relationships you can indicate with transitions:

(1) to show addition: and, also, in addition, furthermore. (2) to give examples: for example, for instance, specifically

(3) to compare: also, likewise, similarly

(4) to contrast: however, on the other hand, yet, although

(5) to summarize or conclude: therefore, in other words (6) to show time: after, before, during, next, finally, meanwhile, immediately

(7) to show place or direction: above, below, nearby, close, far, left, right

(8) to indicate logical relationships: therefore, consequently, as a result, thus, since, because.

Write a brief letter to an elected official representing or serving your target community.

/in /by

After reading and watching all the material assigned this week, write a brief letter to an elected official representing or serving your target community. Your letter will be addressed to a real, current elected official (a town or city council, mayor, local or state representative, governor, etc.). However, this letter is meant to be a class assignment – you are not asked to send the letter. Find elected officials here.

Your letter has two purposes:

to make the elected official aware of the issue you are highlighting and
to educate them on why it is important (or not important) for them to act by describing two important concepts in the study of ethics related to applying moral judgments.
Your letter should do the following:

1. Address your letter to a current elected official of your current town, city, county or region.

2. Name the community and summarize an issue you see in the community.

3. Include the source(s) you used to help identify this issue.

4. Close by asking your elected official to take action (or not to take action, if that is your position) to help resolve, improve, or mitigate this issue. Do this by educating the elected official on what you have recently learned about the concepts of universalism and cultural relativism when considering ethical questions (tip: don’t google ‘Universalism’ – you will likely get the wrong usage of the word. Use the textbook – start at Chapter 3 p.32).

You may copy the following lines, filling in the blanks, or you may put them into your own words, demonstrating that you understand the definitions:

When considering whether or not there are any globally shared moral values, universalists believe [fill in the blank]. Cultural relativists believe [fill in the blank]. Based on my current understanding of global ethics, at this time I side with the [UNIVERSALISTS] or [RELATIVISTS] (you pick which one). I think this view on whether or not all people have at least some some shared values makes the most sense because: [fill in the blank]. For this reason, it makes sense to me that [insert your issue] is an issue [you should all be concerned with addressing] OR [we may not all be concerned with solving].

(When sharing views with elected officials, sometimes we tell them what we want them to do – other times we tell them what we DON’T want them to do – both positions are valid)

Your letter should include a works cited section at the end. Cite the textbook, which you will use as a reference to help you define universalism and relativism. Also cite any articles you reference to highlight your issue. A strong letter will be 400 – 600 words.
