“Exploring the Importance and Impact of [Chosen Topic]: A Research Proposal” “Formal Analysis of the Iconography in Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel Ceiling” Title: Formal Analysis of the Iconography in Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel Ceiling I. Introduction – Brief overview of Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel ceiling

Overview The research proposal provides a space for you to share the reasons why you want to study your chosen topic and helps you determine the parameters of your future writing project, including your research question(s), rationale, summary, predictions, list of reviewed sources, and a strategy for next steps. This assignment serves two purposes: it provides a blueprint–or a working plan–for your future essay, and it helps you to establish topical boundaries, as you begin to narrow your research focus. Expectations The research proposal aims to develop your ability to navigate a complex research and review process. This assignment will help you to: Collect and organize source material Practice MLA formatting Organize your ideas coherently and concisely Synthesize your own ideas with the ideas from sources Practice presenting information to readers in manageable chunks Engage in self-reflection and planning processes Requirements This assignment requires 7 fully developed and supported sections, as outlined in Organization. The minimum word count is 650 words total. (Please note: there is an error in the instructional video–only 7 sections are required.) *If the above requirements are not met, your assignment may be returned with no grade and a resubmission will be required. Length/Sources: You should include the 5 sources that you collected for your annotated bibliography and list them in section 6 of the research proposal. For this assignment only: you do not need to worry about including a hanging indent for your reference citations. However, please plan to use MLA formatting for the order and structure of the citations. Organization: Your proposal should include the following 7 components, and should be presented using the organizer required for this assignment. Check out the table below for important information about the content and conditions of each component. Component Content Conditions Proposed Topic In this section, you will describe the topic that you want to study, including any important issues that you will address, in regards to that topic. Aim for 1-2 complete and concise sentences. You want to be very specific here, with a nicely narrowed focus. Question(s) In this section, you will present the question(s) that you are using to investigate your topic and discuss why these questions are the ones that you have decided to use to guide your progress. Aim for 4 complete and concise questions. Taking on more than that will broaden your scope too much. Rationale In this paragraph, you will share why this topic interests you, and what led to you investigating it. Aim for a fully developed and supported paragraph, with at least 4-5 sentences. Summary In this paragraph, you will share some of the parameters for your project: What are the specific supporting points you are considering, and why? Is there anything you are not planning on covering? Why/why not? Aim for a fully developed and supported paragraph, with at least 4-5 sentences. Prediction In this paragraph, you will predict what you will learn from your investigation of your topic–what do you think you will discover? Why do you think this information will be important? Do you expect to find any gaps in information? Aim for a fully developed and supported paragraph, with at least 4-5 sentences. List of Reviewed Sources In this section, you will include the list of the 5 sources you collected for your annotated bibliography. Be sure to use MLA formatting for these reference citations. However, you do not need to worry about using the hanging indent. Explanation In this paragraph, you will describe why readers should care about your topic. What makes your topic important? Why is this an issue that everyone needs to know about? Aim for a fully developed and supported paragraph, with at least 4-5 sentences. Document Formatting: MLA formatting: Heading (name, assignment name, course name, date), original title, header (page numbers), line-spacing (single or double-spaced), 1” margins, 12-point font size, and Times New Roman or other sans-serif font. Genre/Style: Formal analysis using a 7-section graphic organizer. Although this is a multimodal assignment, your writing should be in complete sentences and include academic tone and structure. Organizer Please copy and paste this organizer into a Word document and fill out each row on the right with information specific to your topic and research project. The requirements for the content of each section are outlined in the Research Proposal Prompt. You should still plan to use formal MLA style for this assignment, including a MLA title page and header.

Title: The Myth of Gatsby: Exploring the Symbolism of America’s Romantic Hero

Some literary scholars believe that Fitzgerald raised Jay Gatsby to the level of mythical.
Richard Lehan sees Gatsby as “a man whose intensity of dream partook of a state that
embodied America itself. Gatsby is the last of the romantic heroes whose energy and
sense of commitment take him in search of his personal grail.” Do you see Gatsby as the
mythical hero symbolic of America? Why or why not? If he is not mythical, then how
would you describe Gatsby?

Title: Finding Common Ground: A Middle Ground Solution for School Dress Codes

As you learned in this unit, a Rogerian argument is one that presents two sides of a debate and argues for a solution that will satisfy both sides. Given the two articles linked below that present opposing sides of an issue (mandatory uniforms in schools vs. some kind of ‘dress code’), construct your own 2-3 page Rogerian argument essay in which you attempt to arrive at a concrete, workable solution or “middle ground.”
1. An introduction that accurately presents both sources (i.e., author, title, year of publication, and their relative position in the debate), as well as your middle ground thesis statement.
❒ 2. A body paragraph that summarizes the pro-uniform rationales. (Both articles can be used, but focus on Anderson).
❒ 3. A body paragraph that summarizes the anti-uniform/pro-dress code rationales. (Both articles can be used, but focus on Deane).
❒ 4. A body paragraph that critically compares and contrasts both sides of the debate.
❒ 5. A conclusion that further develops your proposed middle-ground solution and demonstrates how it satisfies both sides of the debate.
******ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS AS WELL*******
How does the Rogerian model of argument help you better understand the topic that’s being discussed? Why is it a good practice to acknowledge both sides of the argument? (3-4 sentences)
How might the Rogerian approach help you gain insight into your own argumentative essay? (2-3 sentences)
