Should&nbsp;different types of cheating&nbsp;be treated differently? Should Reena and Markus receive the same punishments as the other students? Your final essay will be a persuasive paper that evaluates how KCC&#8217;s policies should be applied to the scenarios listed above.<\/span>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"style2\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"style2\"><strong>Content Requirements<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"style2\">Along with a strong thesis statement (containing a main claim and primary reason), your essay also needs to identify the specific audience you wish to motivate; your audience should be any group who might be affected by the consequences of your thesis (e.g. students, faculty, family members, colleges, the government).&nbsp; Your essay needs to have as many paragraphs as necessary to discuss the key issues supporting your thesis; the overall paper must be between 3-4 pages in length, including the works cited page. Only the sources noted below are allowed. All of the source information you use must be cited properly using MLA-style parenthetical notes, and the paper must include an MLA-style works cited page at the end; not doing so, ironically, could lead to a plagiarism charge.<\/p>\n<p class=\"style2\">Since this is a persuasive paper, you will attempt to change your audience&#8217;s opinion through the presentation of:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li class=\"style4\">facts,<\/li>\n<li class=\"style4\">an authority&#8217;s specific ideas,<\/li>\n<li class=\"style4\">examples,<\/li>\n<li class=\"style4\">consequences, and<\/li>\n<li class=\"style4\">acknowledgement of and response to opposing&nbsp;ideas.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p class=\"style4\">For this assignment, you must use all five of these strategies to support at least three core reasons your audience should accept your thesis.<\/p>\n<p class=\"style2\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"style2\"><strong>Allowed sources<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"style2\">The&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kellogg.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/KCC18-19Handbook-1.pdf\">KCC&nbsp;Student Handbook 2018-2019&nbsp;<\/a>(in particular, review the &#8220;Academic Integrity Policy&#8221;)<\/li>\n<li class=\"style2\">Maria Konnikova&#8217;s&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/staff.kellogg.edu\/perkinsm\/moodle\/TSEN_95\/Cheat_art.pdf\">&#8220;Inside the Cheater&#8217;s Mind&#8221;<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"style4\">\n<p><strong>MLA<\/strong><strong>&nbsp;style and format resources<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p class=\"style2\">The model MLA paper section of The Pocket Prof, starting&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kellogg.edu\/upload\/pdf\/PocketProf.pdf#page=47\">on page 44<\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"style2\">Basic in-text citation guidelines:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/owl.english.purdue.edu\/owl\/resource\/747\/02\/\">https:\/\/owl.english.purdue.edu\/owl\/resource\/747\/02\/<\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"style2\">Works cited page entry for a web page or electronic resource:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/owl.english.purdue.edu\/owl\/resource\/747\/08\/\">https:\/\/owl.english.purdue.edu\/owl\/resource\/747\/08\/<\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"style2\">Quotation\/summary\/paraphrase and documentation&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/moodle.kellogg.edu\/pluginfile.php\/453738\/mod_page\/content\/11\/quote%20paraphrase%20summary%20MLA%208%20example.docx\">guidelines for MLA<\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"style4\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TSEN 95 final essay \/&nbsp; Dr. Westdorp When students cheat (or appear to cheat), professors are the ones who enforce their college&#8217;s academic integrity policies.
