Description
A winner of the John S. Knight Assignment Sequence Prize, this sequence originates from Government 100, Globalization in the Twenty-First Century: Progress, Promise, and Problems. The sequence consists of five formal essays that move from assignments that emphasize basic definitions/concepts; to assignments that focus on defending claims with evidence (and incorporating counter-argument); to assignments that stress critical evaluations of arguments and evidence; to the final assignment, which asks students to bring together all of these elements in a short research paper. Assignments encompass a variety of topics and styles. Preparatory activities include in-class writing exercises, guided reading exercises, discussion, peer review, and other preparatory writing. The assignments aim (1) to help students understand and practice good argumentative writing in the social sciences; (2) to facilitate students' coming to understand that writing is an essential part of the process of creating knowledge. 44 page pdf
