To assist you in crafting your papers, we will dedicate some class time to analyzing exemplar papers. On the following pages, you will find three sample papers composed for an Introduction to Philosophy course. These papers are derived from actual submissions I have received over time, but none is an exact copy of a specific student’s work. To access the papers, simply click the “NEXT” button located at the bottom of the page.
The assignment for these papers was as follows (this is NOT your assignment–you can find that below): In Plato’s Apology, Socrates informs the jury that he would defy their orders to cease practicing philosophy if they were to release him. Contrarily, in Plato’s Crito, Socrates asserts that one should never disobey their city. Your task is to develop and defend a thesis addressing this seeming contradiction. If you believe the two positions can be reconciled, provide textual evidence to support your claim. If you argue that one passage more accurately represents Plato’s views, explain why the other passage should be given less weight. If you think Plato is genuinely contradicting himself, help us comprehend the reason behind this contradiction. Do not assume that your reader will automatically concur with your assertions.
Your assignment involves evaluating the three sample papers: Thoroughly read each paper and assess them using the paper rubric provided below. Assign a grade to each paper based on the rubric, and write one paragraph highlighting the strengths and another paragraph discussing the weaknesses of each paper. Submit your report on the “Paper Preparation Exercise” page. You must complete this assignment before progressing to the next unit.
