Description
I will include further detailed instructions in the upload, but it is pretty much a 10 pg paper, showcasing a particular case study I will include, that showcases forms of captivity. analyze this case more in depth, to interpret its meanings by putting it in a broad context that help to clarify broader insights into the nature of captivity and freedom in America.SOME STRATEGIES AND TACTICS FOR WRITING YOUR RESEARCH PROJECT
CHECKLIST FOR FINAL CAPTIVITY PROJECT
Your ten-page project is due on Dropbox on Saturday, November 19th at 2:00pm. Since you have had
time to focus on it, that it will be shared with a classmate, and evaluated over the weekend, this
deadline must be met. Late papers will be reduced an entire grade. Please note that your paper is not
merely a report on a topic and thus different in its goals from your presentation. You have been
encouraged to select a text, representation, event, situation, etc. that embodies an episode of captivity.
The task of your project is to analyze this specific episode in depth, to interpret its meanings by placing it
in broader contexts that help to elucidate broader insights into the nature of captivity and freedom in
America. Clarity and directness of language is essential. There is no need to tell you readers directly
where you will be taking them in the first person, though a blueprint of your paper helps its organization
to cohere.
One way to do this is to refine a complex and sophisticated question that your research sets out to
answer. The deeper you engage your inquiry the more effective your paper will be in exploring the
significance of the question or problem at the center of your analysis. The success of your paper is also a
factor of the depth of your research. Do not rest on the sources you have located so far; be creative and
thorough in pursuing ever more relevant and precise sources to inform the increasing specificity of your
project.
Excellent papers will exhibit what I call dimensionality. This means there is a balance between close
analysis of a specific case and its sources that serves as an anchor around which you contextualize your
inquiry within the broader history and deeper problems it raises for understanding the issue of captivity
and freedom in the United States that is raised most significantly by your research. An important
dimension of both your project and your presentation is your interpretation of what your source and
subject reveals about the complex nature of the phenomenon of captivity. Spell this out in your paper!
Consider how you might center your case at the outset of your paper and include your findings and the
meaningful insights your research has revealed about the captivity as part of your paper’s introductory
thesis.
I am happy to meet with you to discuss your paper during office hours or at another mutually agreed
upon time.
Your inquiry began with a question you posed about your theme and case the indicated what you hoped
to discover through your research. The question no doubt got refined through the deepening process of
your research. Though there is no need to pose this question in your paper, it will have more focus if its
interpretive argument is to serve as a conclusive response to that inquiry.
Your paper is more than a presentation of the topic and case you have chosen to examine. It is a means
of deepening your understanding of the larger focus of the course by deriving deeper lessons about the
phenomenon of captivity from the intensive consideration of a particular angle and example. Consider
generating a few clear sentences spelling out what your research has revealed about the phenomenon
of captivity. Consider how you might include these discoveries as part of your paper’s thesis or
conclusion. Do not turn in your paper until you are proud of what you have written and until you have
communicated the deeper lesson you have learned by engaging in your research.
This project represents weeks of dedicated study during which the reading for the course was limited to
allow you the time for your research. An excellent paper will represent a thorough and coherent
examination of the significance of the issue. One clear goal that can be achieved is to prove your insights
rather than assert them. A focused mini-research investigation into specific areas and questions raised
by your paper will accomplish two important ends: it will strengthen the persuasiveness of your paper’s
evidentiary base and it will expand your bibliography to demonstrate more thorough and more relevant
research investigation. This is also an opportunity to locate varied types of evidence that contrast with
what you have found, such as more popular commentary or other academic articles. Is there a powerful
database that you have not yet consulted such as America’s News or Google Scholar?
Clarity and directness of language is essential. There is no need to tell your readers directly where you
will be taking them in the first person, though a blueprint of your paper helps its organization to cohere.
Ensure that your paper is organized logically and systematically. Each paragraph should have a clear
function in unfolding the evidence proving your larger interpretive argument. A strategy for
improvement is to make an index or map of the topics of each of your paragraphs. Does each paragraph
have its clear purpose that is related to the thesis? This map allows you to step back and to consider
whether the paper is organized in the most effective and coherent way. Move around and add new
topics to render your paper clear and impactive.
I’ve included a checklist below that will assist you in preparing the version of your paper in ways that will
hopefully limit the comments I will be providing for your revisions.
Please upload your paper to the DropBox section of Sakai. I will then share your paper with a classmate
with instructions for the peer reading.
What is really important for the impact of your paper is the degree to which you have
•
•
•
refined the specific angle of inquiry you are bringing to your interpretation
o have you spelled out the deeper question you are examining and does your
paper provide an effective response?
brought to bear evidence of quality and depth that is based on extensive citation of
relevant sources;
organized the coherence of your paper around an unfolding argument about captivity.
KEY QUESTION: Does my paper analyze specific dynamics of captivity through a close consideration of
focused example that illuminates the complexities of the larger topic or issue I am interpreting in my
paper and allows me to interpret the phenomenon of captivity?
•
•
•
Have I organized my paper effectively?
Is there a coherent balance between three different dimensions of an excellent paper?
o specific evidence closely analyzed;
o explanatory contextualization (e.g. in history, with comparable situations, etc.);
o my own interpretive analysis.
Have I used correct grammar and is my writing clear, succinct, and vibrant? (Please check
corrections on your two short papers for insights in what to avoid in your final paper.)
Some specific guidelines
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Avoid superlatives (such as always and never) and cliches.
Use formal diction and avoid cliches and contractions
o It’s is only used as a contract of it is and not as a possessive.
• Please note that book and journal titles should be italicized or underlined and article
titles placed in quotation marks.
• Single quotation marks should only be used for quotations within quotations.
• Punctuation should come after a citation but before a footnote maker …(Parker, 13).1
Does my paper include a dynamic title and page numbers?
Is my bibliography extensive and diverse? This is the time to engage is focused micro-research
on the central problem you have discovered within your case. Are my sources documented fully
and properly in one of the standard bibliographical styles?
Are my citations clearly noted in my paper through footnotes or in-line citations with page
numbers?
Have I proofread my paper carefully?
A key tactic of revision is to read your paper aloud to catch infelicities with your ear as eyes
become tired of seeing the same words.
Your paper will also receive a close reading by a classmate. Instructions for the peer reading and
a copy of a classmate’s paper will be shared by email. Your comments are due Tuesday,
November 22 along with the other reading assigned for that day.
Everything you need: Read other one first
For my event, I chose the Jenny Flores vs. Reno case.
My complex question I decided to use was the question of how U.S. Detention centers are
dynamically designed to break child migrants’ chances at freedom. But How? (you can mention
this in the essay)
Instructions: close analysis of the case itself (making sure it revolves around the case and using
context to support the analysis),
Can choose any credible sources articles related to the case and history to showcase the different
forms of captivity, such as psychological, physical, socially, etc…
The paper should focus on dimensionality. This means there is a balance between close analysis
of a specific case and its sources that serves as an anchor around which you contextualize your
inquiry within the broader history and deeper problems it raises for understanding the issue of
captivity and freedom in the United States that is raised most significantly by your research. An
important dimension of both your project and your presentation is your interpretation of what
your source and subject reveals about the complex nature of the phenomenon of captivity.
