Outline of Argumentative Research Paper

For this assignment, please make sure you submit a properly MLA-formatted document which contains:

• An original title that indicates, clearly, what the paper will be about. Try for something fun and unique! You can always adjust your title later as your draft progresses.
• An introduction paragraph, which starts generally and ends specifically.
• An argumentative thesis statement in bold.
• At minimum, 3-6 potential body paragraph topics. You can include actual paragraphs if you get that far. Again, this plan of development may change later, and that’s OK.

Optional: You may also want to think about where in your paper you’ll be including an acknowledgement and refutation of a counterargument. Usually the introduction or a body paragraph is where students do this. You can tentatively indicate where you think you’ll put yours, and what that counterargument may be.
