Example (in paper text referring to a citation):

In an epidemiological study, overweight young women were shown to have higher LDL and lower HDL levels than normal weight women.1 LDL, or low-density lipoprotein, is a fat particle circulating in the blood that delivers cholesterol to tissues and has been associated with increased risk of coronary heart disease.2 HDL, or high-density lipoprotein is also blood-born fat particle that removes cholesterol from tissues and from LDL and delivers it to the liver to be metabolized. HDL is associated with reduced risk of coronary heart disease. Results differed however with regard to the women�s menopausal status.1

My Topic is “Why is cosmetic surgery a part of Asian culture and why do people have the urge to get it.”

the three sources you analyze in the essay at least one must be a scholarly source

1.Develop a title for your project—something that suggests the critical focus of your research.

2.Provide background on your research question: Why is it urgent (exigence) and why is this the “right time” to pursue it (kairos)? What is going on in the world right now (or in your world) that makes this topic worthy of attention or consideration? What assumptions about your topic currently circulate that you might effectively attend to? Who is affected by this topic, and why should your readers care about them? What are the implications for caring about (or not caring about) this issue?

3.Think through the role of primary research in your project: What are the possibilities for doing primary research? What will primary research allow you to see in and understand about your topic?

4.Carefully read your sources and analyze them in relation to each other and in relation to your research question:
Do the sources genuinely offer a range of perspectives on the topic? Are those perspectives and ideas sufficiently engaging, interesting, provocative for you and your (future) readers? Do the perspectives inspire you to think about your topic in new and more complicated ways? Are the arguments timely and urgent (that is, do they matter now, in this historical moment)?
Consider as well: What are the genres of the sources? Who are the authors (that is, what are their qualifications for writing about the topic)? Where were the texts published? Do the writers (and their arguments) sound reasonable, thoughtful, considered? What sorts of evidence do the writers provide to support their arguments, and is that evidence persuasive? Who is paying attention to these sources, and why?

Think about the material. Ponder what the author’s intent is in writing the assigned pieces. Did he or she succeed? Is the author persuasive? What would it mean if the author is right or wrong? What other arguments are compatible or incompatible with the author’s stance? Long baths, showers, walks, or aimless metro rides are perfect situations for contemplationAs to citation, though the Chicago Manual of Style is the preferred guidebook for philosophical writing, any scholarly format is acceptable, provided it is consistent throughout the assignment. All quotes and ideas taken from sources other than the student’s mind are to be scrupulously cited to avoid plagiarism and cheating. It is cheating to consult other sources to supplement your understanding of the reading. Part of the work of philosophy is interpreting the text, so students who look to other sources for guidance on interpretation inevitably adulterate their own views of the material.Generally speaking, philosophical writing is argumentative, in that it states a clear position the author means to defend at the beginning, and spends the rest of the paper proving the thesis. Great papers are equal parts textual evidence and author opinion. Students should refer to the texts and quote them throughout the paper. On the basis of the text, students should then assert their own voices, offering an interpretation or answer to a prompt that goes beyond mere summary of the reading(s) at hand. The most common types of poorly-written papers have unclear theses, over-cite the text, or devolve into unproven speculation. • Response Papers -1-2 pages in length, due at the beginning of a class. Students will select a short passage from the text that is especially fascinating, troubling, or important, and analyze it in the paper. Numerous techniques may be used to assess the passage: students might contextualize the passage within the work as awhole; they might show ways in which the passage opens up new avenues of thought; they might show how the passage throws the entire work into question; or they might try to make a confusing passage clear through their analysis. Students should offer both an interpretation of the text and some creative thought on it.
