Synopsis/Outline of the Paper (100 Points)

The following four sections give an outline of how you should approach this assignment. This should take up 4-6 double-spaced pages.

1. ARGUMENT 1 (~1.5 pages). Give a basic outline of argument 1. There should be some citations of literature in this section.

2. ARGUMENT 2 (~1.5 pages). Give a basic outline of argument 2. There should be some citations of literature in this section.

3. METHODOLOGY (~1 page). The methodology is sort of like an algorithm or a machine-if you push the data through your methodology you should get the same output every time (as long as the input data stays the same). Take the data you presented in sections 2 & 3, and evaluate it with your method, this should lead you to some logical conclusions.

4. PRELIMINARY CONCLUSIONS (~1 page). What are some conclusions that you can draw from the methodology and the data at this point in your research. You should have some ideas by now.
