library instruction? Yes
If yes please specify: We'll have a brief discussion before heading over to
the library...
Assignment description and sample topics:
Final analytical research essay, 6-7 pages, which explores a specific
question with no concrete answer. The essay should focus on a question which
is narrow in scope so that the answer (opinion) the student presents can be
supported thoroughly with ample evidence (while exploring alternative views).
Examples: Is microfinance the most effective approach to alleviating
long-term poverty in countries such as Burkina Faso?
How important is nutrition and health education in combating the "revolving
door syndrome" in U.S. prisons?
Is spanking an effective disciplinary technique towards raising emotionally
healthy children?

The final essay is a 5-6 page essay with three outside (of class readings) sources. It isn't a research paper, as the ideas must be based in their experiences and not based on outside information, but they need to find other authored sources talking about the ideas to add dimension and support to their thesis.
The essay must include an idea from one of the class readings, which include a variety of thinkers:
Germaine Greer, Nietzsche, Emerson, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Machiavelli, Lao-Tzu, and Plato.
