Your Position on Electronic Policing<\/p>\n

Develop a thesis statement on the topic of electronic policing and anti-plagiarism software and write an argumentative essay. Your chosen topic needs to be specific and might address a question like the ones you see in these examples:<\/p>\n

Should student writers be subject to having their work checked by anti-plagiarism software? Why or why not? <\/p>\n

Is anti-plagiarism software an effective deterrent to stealing published work? Why or why not? <\/p>\n

You may choose another topic regarding electronic policing as well; just be sure that your main thesis addresses the topic of electronic policing. <\/p>\n

Strive for at least three strong arguments in addition to a counterargument and refutation (this resource) will help you craft your counter argument and refutation). Using argumentative topic sentences that include your opinion for each section can help ensure the majority of your essay is argumentative. For example, \u201cFirst, students should be subject to having their work checked by anti-plagiarism software because\u2026.\u201d Then be sure to support that claim with researched data. Conclude each paragraph with a sentence that summarizes the paragraph\u2019s main ideas.<\/p>\n

Sample Thesis Statement:<\/p>\n

Ideally, a thesis would include the major assignment objectives for the essay, which in this case would be your claim\/opinion, reasons why you have that opinion, and the counter-argument: \u201cStudents\u2019 work should be checked by anti-plagiarism software because (add argument 1), (add argument 2), and (add argument 3), even though (add counterargument focus).\u201d <\/p>\n

Use at least three credible sources (the author should be considered an expert on the topic in which he or she writes; try Google Scholar to search), such as books, articles, and websites, to support your thesis. Include a mix of cited paraphrases, summaries, and quotes in your argumentative research paper. Use the MLA format to create proper parenthetical citations as well as a Works Cited page at the end of your essay.

A counter-argument section for this paper should explain what the opposition believes, and it is the opposite of the opinion you are arguing in your paper. For example, if you are arguing that anti-plagiarism software should not be used in college classes, then the counterargument would be that anti-plagiarism software should be used. Then in your refutation, try to prove the counterargument false, insignificant, or unimportant with researched information that is new to the essay (avoid recycling facts from a previous argument in the essay). <\/p>\n
