University students funds
Should Florida decrease funding for the University of South Florida? The assignment calls for 750-1250 words. At approximately 250 words a page that gives us about 4-5 pages which at about 3 paragraphs a page is roughly 10-15 paragraphs. Our outline already has us prepared for an introduction context three claims with evidence for each a refutation and a conclusion. Different writers approach developing an outline differently. One way to start is with the context and develop it before moving into the claims and evidence. Because the context can be expanded or condensed to fit the assignment length as needed some writers prefer to start with a claim and expand each claim and its evidence individually and equally before moving to the refutation and then the context. Finalizing the conclusion and introduction last is pretty standard. The Position Paper requires inclusion and integration of five sources. The goal of our paper is to present a convincing argument and while integrating source material is an important element of argumentative writing the source material being cited should not simply be dropped in and connected with topic and transition sentences. Transitioning between claims is very important because it creates the connection that builds the larger argument. The absence of transitions can leave the reader confused and make the paper read like a disconnected annotated bibliography or outline instead of a unified argument connected by reasoning into a whole text. As we know the reasoning that links the evidence to the claims and the claims to the position is a very important part of the overall argument and needs to be clear. you must use 5 out of 8 sources that I have provide https://www.tampabay.com/news/education/2020/08/31… https://floridapolitics.com/archives/303754-usf-wa… www.usf.edu/news/2020/usf-leads-all-state-universi…. www.insidehighered.com/views/2020/04/16/covid-19-must-not-obscure-need-states-fund-colleges-more-wisely-over-long-term. https://www.demos.org/sites/default/files/publicat… www.usforacle.com/2020/08/19/bot-projects-future-cuts-in-state-funding-due-to-covid-19/.
