Design a small country that fosters the greatest happiness for the greatest number of people.
1. We begin our Research Project, which combines threads of all the subjects we’ve covered this semester.
2. The correct approach or tone is explanatory, though you will use argumentation to present your evidence.
3. It is due at the end of Week 16, SATURDAY, at 11:59 pm. Submit it to “Turnitin.com” by then. The good news–you have two weeks from now to complete it.
4. One draft only.
5. It is to be formatted using APA style, which we learned earlier this semester. (See the h.o. attached below that I created specifically for this assignment.)
6. Your research essay will begin with a Cover Page and end with References.
7. Below I provide a sample of APA formatting. It is attached as a WORD file. Download and use it!! It is THE example against which your paper will be graded. You may use it as a template. Note that it includes additional info that your final papers will need, such as an abstract.
8. As usual for essays in our class, use WORD. Times New Roman font, size 12. Standard margins. Double-spaced. Page numbers inserted in upper right hand corner. Running header (shows up on each page) in upper right hand corner beside the page number; the running header is an abbreviated version of your title. Running header (shows up on each page) in upper right hand corner beside the page number;
9. You must create at least one graph / chart as a visual aid in your essay. In WORD: Insert > Chart
10. You must use at least five sources. These will be documented under References.
11. As you practiced earlier in the semester, at least three sources must be from EBSCO. To use this database, first go to this Coastline link, where you’ll need to enter your Coastline MyCCC username and password. Then click on “EBSCOhost” > “Student Research Center.”

13. You MAY use and quote articles from our textbook.
14. ESSAY TOPIC: Design a small country that fosters the greatest happiness for the greatest number of people.
15. To do so, you’ll create policies and rationalize them using evidence from your research.
16. You’ll need to define clearly your terms (happiness, greatest number, etc.).
17. Organization: Your essay will have an introduction paragraph, several body paragraphs, and a conclusion paragraph–a beginning, middle, and end. Total length (including title page, abstract, and references) = 10 pages minimum.
18. Your body paragraphs will zoom in on five or more national interests. Examples include: class, race, ideologies (belief systems, religions, and so on), urban design, architecture, transportation, renewable resources, leadership / system of government, arts (painting, literature, music, film), military, cuisine, physical / mental health of citizens, entertainment, invented history, scientific innovation / research, technology, health care, family structure, economic policies, business practices, imports / exports, geographic location, topography, natural habitat…. and any others you can think of.
19. To reiterate: YOU are creating a country. Although ostensibly a research paper, this is really a form of creative writing. Pick five or more national interests on which to focus. Support your proposed policies with concrete evidence from EBSCO articles and other online research. For inspiration refer to the essays on the ideal society, free will, and happiness (you’re assigned to read it next week–c’est parfait!).
20. To reiterate–I’ve written an APA style guide and given you organization advice. Download the essential WORD document attached below.
21. Note that next week, Week 16, you’ll have additional reading assignments about happiness that you should also incorporate into your project.
22. Again, this is both a creative and an expository essay. Have fun with it–strut your stuff–you’re all strong, capable writers by now. Be sure to create an outline, organize your ideas into sections, and use transitions to signal shifts from section to section. Ask anything in the “Final Research Project” forum (see below).
