Initially I wanted to do research on Tiananmen Square because that affect all of China and eventually led to the citizenship of my parents in the United States. However, after much thought and conversations with my mom, I decided that Tiananmen Square was not a good topic for me so I have revised the topic for my research paper. The topic for my research will be about Study Abroad instead of Tiananmen Square. The reason behind this is that my parents initially came to the United States to pursue a higher education. That along with the many opportunities nowadays to go study abroad in another country led me to wonder if they really are good experiences to have.
Thesis: The intent and duration of a student's participation in a study abroad varies from person to person and from major to major; however, students who participate in study abroad programs increase their individual confidence, increase their understanding and respect for the cultures in the world, and are better prepared for future opportunities in a global world.
Great argument, and you outline perfectly what you will be talking about in your paper. The topic is announced from the get go and you set forth a focus for the topic. You have all 4 of the things a thesis should contain. Great job.
ReplyDeleteGood job Jade. This will be interesting information to know.
ReplyDeleteI really like this, and I also love that you were brave enough to change your topic! Good on you, Jade! I feel like your thesis is really clear on what you want to talk about, doesn't leave me questioning! Good luck!
ReplyDeleteI think that your thesis is very clear and concise. I really like the layout and organization because it is going to be very easy to follow throughout your paper. Consider including a clear counterargument to acknowledge in your thesis to go along with your argument.
