Hello, My essay is on Alexander Hamilton and why he helped primarily develop America into what it is today. The South regarded him as aristocratic and found his practices to unfavorable to the South. I’d like my essay to focus on how his actions was to unite America for the greater benefit, during his tenure as Secretary of the Treasury. Alexander Hamilton spoke out against slavery and wanted to focus on manufacturing, as he believed it was progressive. Little did he know, the cotton gin would strengthen the slave trade, but his intentions were good. Reference need to be from scholarly sources. Other references are fine, but at least 3 need to be scholarly. Here is the assignment from the instructor: Topic Selection and Academic Sources Topic Idea ? Background Research ? Research Question ? In-depth Research ? Thesis Statement After you have selected a topic that interests you, you want to consider the following questions. -Is the topic manageable? -Is there adequate source material? -Is the topic credible? Background research will help you narrow your focus to something manageable and historically specific.   Consider the following as you complete your background research and prepare your research question:  1. Ask how or why an event happened 2. Ask what the consequences were of an event (but remember to be historically specific) 3. Discuss the intellectual origins of a particular idea 4. Ask what the cultural context of an event was 5. Ask whether or not an individual was responsible for an act 6. Ask about the social history of a political event During all of your research, you should be using sources that are credible.  Keep careful track of the sources you find in a notebook, in a Word or Google Doc, or by using RefWorks.  Writing down your sources will help you avoid plagiarism. To narrow your sources to educational websites, use site:edu after your search terms.   Databases available through **INSTITUTION NAME***:  ABC-CLIO E-book Collection Academic Search Premier Biography Reference Center Credo Reference eBooks on EBSCOhost eBooks History Collection History Study Center Military Database Religion Database After completing ample background research, you will want to develop a research question. Your research question will guide your in-depth research, narrowing your focus further.  Strong research questions should not be simple yes/no questions, and they should use the 5Ws to narrow the scope: who, what, when, where, and why.  Your thesis statement will then be the answer to your research question.    Test the strength of your research question with the following questions: 1. Does my question allow for many possible answers? Is it flexible and open-ended?  2. Is it testable? Do I know what kind of evidence would allow an answer?  3. Can I break big “why” questions into empirically resolvable pieces?  4. Is the question clear and precise? Do I use vocabulary that is vague or needs definition?  5. Have I made the premises explicit?  6. Is it of a scale suitable to the length of the assignment?  7. Can I explain why the answer matters? Continue in-depth research to find a credible response to your research question.  Rely on academic or scholarly, peer-edited sources during this stage.  Continue to keep track of your sources so you avoid accidental plagiarism.  After you have done plenty of research, work on formulating a thesis statement that answers your research question.  A thesis statement is the main argument you will present in your essay.  Remember that thesis statements are not statements of purpose.  Your thesis statement will be the answer to your research question.  As you work on your thesis statement, which can be more than one sentence, remember the following details. A thesis statement is: NOT a fact NOT an opinion NOT a question NOT a definition NOT too vague NOT too narrow NOT a generalization A thesis statement for a history essay: MAKES a historical argument TAKES a position that requires defending IS historically specific IS focused and precise ANSWERS the question “so what?” Also: Your essay should focus mainly on content: developing and supporting your thesis in an organized fashion.  Each paragraph should have a separate focus that works to support your thesis statement. You can work on sentence structure and grammar as you revise your essays before the final draft is due.focus mainly on content: developing and supporting your thesis in an organized fashion.  Each paragraph should have a separate focus that works to support your thesis statement. You can work on sentence structure and grammar as you revise your essays before the final draft is due.
