Overview the problem in an introductory movement of one to two paragraphs of 6-8
sentences each.
Explain why the issue matters. State your statement at the end of your
introductory movement, which means it would come at the end of the first or second
paragraph.
For instance,Write a research paper on “The Ventura County water shortage and how it can be mitigated by recycling sewage through a plant designed for this express purpose.”
II. Then, write a multiple-paragraph movement that defines the problem in some detail.
Overview the concern shown by those with the means to effect change who have been
acting on the problem.
III. In your next movement, propose your solution in equally clear detail. Your problem and solution movements should be of equal length.
IV. Analyze elements of the implementation process and its outcomes. This means
examining details that most people might not consider, much less notice, to include
possible short- or long-term possibilities.
V. Each body paragraph should be from 4-8 sentences, and most body paragraphs should include the following structure:
i. An opening topic sentence that supports your thesis.
ii. At least one sentence just after the topic sentence that supports the topic
sentence with logic and evidence.
iii. Include a quote or paraphrase from one of your sources in the third or
fourth sentence of at least five body paragraphs.
The paper should include both direct quotes and paraphrases, and cite at
least seven different sources, all of which should be credible (don’t use
Wikipedia, ask.com, Sparknotes, Cliffnotes, BrainyQuote, etc.).
v. A sculpted closing sentence of your own (not an outside source) that
completes the thought of the paragraph.
VI. Finish with a closing paragraph of 4-8 sentences that offers a tonally appropriate call to action. A call to action is a statement claiming that a particular action ought to be done
