Create a proposal for your final research topic. A proposal for a project is a great way to assess your reasons for undertaking the project or essay. It also is a great motivating factor when collecting preliminary research and organizing your initial claim and support. You will need to explain in your proposal why you are investigating this claim, what your claim is, how you plan to support your claim, and finally what your obstacles will be in writing your essay. Intended Readers: The person who is permitting or funding your project. In this case, the instructor for this course.

Format: MLA formatting will be used to construct a proposal and works cited page. Must have a formal outline. Must have a brief analysis of your writing situation and 3 sources. (Sources must be also cited in essay). Two pages with a work cited page.
