The final writing assignment will be a continuation of the work you’ve done with

The final writing assignment will be a continuation of the work you’ve done with Assignment 2—the exploratory process and annotated bibliography related to your unsung master and the ethical or social problem that lead their work to be unsung. In this final phase of the research process, you’ll move from exploration to thesis-driven argument. You concluded Assignment 2 with your tentative thesis; now you’ll have a chance to refine that thesis, revise your research as needed, and develop your thesis into an argumentative essay. Because you are now creating a focused argument, the sources you found for the annotated bibliography may not all transfer to this stage of the process. Some research may support your more focused claim, and some may have to be abandoned. I expect your sources, as well as your writing, to be revised for this essay. The structure of this assignment follows the Research-Supported Argument discussed in Assignment Sequence 1.
