Dear Delegates:
As you know, the major research and written work required of a delegate PRIOR to competing in Global Classrooms is the Position Paper. Since the position paper is completed as a delegation (or as a pair), you have to decide WHO in the pair does WHAT. For example, you can do the whole worksheet together, or split it into parts and discuss with one another - that’s up to you!
- Now that you have practiced writing a Personal Position paper, we will outline the actual paper we are using for the conference.
- An outline is an essential part of a research paper, because 1) it helps you organize your ideas, and 2) is a skeleton for the paper you will write afterward!
Instructions:
- For each section, list relevant facts and statistics that you would include in your position paper about the topic and your country.
- For each section, indicate which sources you used to find your information (on this outline, you can simply include the link, we will create the full citation later)
- Bring a printed copy to class on Monday, December 4. You MUST bring it to class. Only 1 completed outline is needed per delegation.
