Philosophical Essay
Each student will write a 5 page essay on an assigned question. You should address the question in a well-argued, philosophical essay with basic Introduction-Body-Conclusion structure. You should utilize the assigned readings as sources in formulating your answer. Outside research is encouraged but not required. Any outside research should include proper academic sources such as books by scholars in relevant fields and peer-reviewed journals. Avoid general knowledge sources like Wikipedia and About.com and possibly biased sources such as advocacy group websites. You should include proper citations and a list of references for your sources according to APA style.
All written assignments should be submitted electronically through Blackboard: Go to the course Blackboard site; click on the Assignments tab on the left; click on the indicated assignment; then you should see a place to upload your essay. Essays should be uploaded as MSWord documents. PDFs are acceptable but less preferred. If you are a Mac user, you should convert your Apple Pages document to MSWord or PDF.
