This process will be similar to the first essay, but we will combine several of the earlier phases. So for Phase One I would like:
1. A topic
2. A preliminary thesis (the aim is to state, in a simple declarative sentence, a claim you think is true, interesting, in need of support, and for which you can develop supportive evidence)
3. A list of premises (each stated as a simple, declarative sentence, collectively sufficient to make a compelling logical case for the thesis. Premises can include data, strongly suggestive examples, conceptual analysis, and indeed any sort of legitimate grounds for thinking the thesis is true).
Please send this first phase in the body of an email message to me, and to Kyle (aka John Innis) by the end of the day on Friday, November 11th (Veteran's Day).
