ENGL 135 Week 3 Position Paper The Omnivore's
Dilemma (DEVRY)
ENGL 135 Week 1 McDonalds Evaluation (DEVRY)
Choose your topic for the position paper
carefully, as it will be expanded into the
Research Paper later in this course. The topic
should come from one of the issues explored in
The Omnivores Dilemma. A theme of this bookis
that conventional wisdom about societal issues
and challenges is often incorrect. Dont be
afraid to take an unconventional stance on an
issue. The Position Paper should be 2-3 pages
and is due at the end of Week 3 to the Dropbox.  
Our first assignment is an evaluation, which uses
a set of standards or criteria to measure quality
or effectiveness of a subject, such as a place,
product, or service. This week, you will evaluate
a restaurant. You may include details that allow
your evaluation to come alive for the
reader.The evaluation, worth 100 points, is due
in the Dropbox at the end of this week (Week 1).
It is to be 1-2 pages.

ENGL 135 Week 5 Annotated Bibliography
ENGL 135 Week 4 Research Proposal and Outline
paper (DEVRY)
The annotated bibliography is a very useful
research tool in that it summarizes the
information found in each of your research paper
sources, and relates how the source will connect
to ideas in your paper. Be sure to review the
section Developing an Annotated Bibliography
(pp. 472-474) of our textbook before writing your
bibliography. In Doc Sharing, youll also find
the document format for the annotated
bibliography. You may find that other sources
will be added to your list, but at this point in
your research process, you should have at least
five sources to include in your bibliography.
The Research Paper will be a longer version of
your position paper, just expanded with outside
sources. The research proposal and outline let
the reader know your topic, research question,
and how you plan to expand your position paper.
The research outline provides a road map of your
ideas for the research paper, including your
thesis, organization, and major ideas. The
research proposal and outline assignment, due at
end of week 4 in the Dropbox, is worth 60 points
and should be 1-2 pages.
