BCR: News organizations predict the winners of elections before all the votes are counted. On election day 2000, supporters of George W. Bush complained that news organizations predicted Al Gore to be the winner in California hours before the polls closed on the West Coast.

Explain reasons why Bush supporters may have been displeased with the early predictions.

Should news organizations predict the winners of elections? Explain why or why not.

Use details and examples to support your answer.

Unit Project: Are the Founders still relevant?

BCR Outline

1.   What were the Founders’ intentions for DC?

Your answer:

Source and evidence to support your answer:

2.   Do you think the Founders’ intentions for DC should still matter today? Why or why not?

Your thesis:

Your main reason:

3.   Which piece of evidence is most compelling to use to support your argument?

Name of source:

Evidence (quote) from source:

4. Why is this a compelling piece of evidence?

Explain how the evidence you cited proves your thesis and reason.

I am writing a reflection paragraph about immanuel kant and the reflection is about why i agree with this philosopher the most.

STEP 1: Write me a very good thesis statement (or a few options I can pick from) that: declares an opinion, rather than an obvious fact, make sure the language in the thesis is clear enough for readers to understand, make sure the relationship between the topic sentence and the thesis is clear, make sure the thesis is focussed and narrow rather than vague and broad, make sure you have enough evidence to prove your thesis.

STEP 2: POINT PROOF EXPLANATION FORMAT:

Point- the supporting point of your thesis statement

Proof- to convince the reader that your point is true invalid you must apply at least one prove to convince them of your claim. Prove consist of both direct evidence (short and long quotations) and indirect evidence (observation and reason). The best argument combine both direct and indirect evidence.

Explanation- the relationship between your supporting points, and the proves that you offered to defend it is not obvious or automatic. Each proof, therefore, must be clearly explain so that it is relevant for the supporting point and more broadly the thesis becomes clear, to your reader. Also, be sure to show the relationship between proofs.

So pick three points to support your thesis, and then pick three proofs from immanuel Kants categorical imperative reading to support your points, and then, after each point, explain how old is proof supports the point (briefly with strong words)

So formatting should be like this

Point 1-

Proof (direct or indirect)-

Explain how this proof supports the point-

And repeat same for other two points.

STEP 3: CONCLUSION:

gently remind the reader of your thesis by paraphrasing it, using slightly different words for maintaining the original meaning (make sure it’s good)

then paraphrase, organizing points remind your reader of the three points you have developed to support your thesis. Also, be sure that the supporting points are repeated in the order that they appear in your reflective writing piece.

STEP FOUR: THEMATIC STATEMENT:

The thematic statement  compels your reader to consider why this topic is worthy of reflection what is a social, personal and political relevance? It’s a challenge, the reader to reconsider their views about the topic being addressed (answer the question: SO WHAT).

After you are finished, all of this, combine everything and write a reflective piece on it (you can add additional information to make it better)

CAN YOU WRITE ME A BODY PARAGRAPH WITH THIS POINT, PROOF EXPLANATION INFORMATION?

My point is Immanuel Kant stresses the significance of individual autonomy in decision making.

My proof is: “So act that you use humanity, whether in your own person or in the person of any other, always at the same time as an end, never merely as a means” (Kant, 112)

My explanation is: Kant’s emphasis on individual autonomy, highlight the importance of respecting individuals, freedom and independence in moral decision making. This principle suggest that individuals should take responsibility for their actions and not be unduly influenced by external factors, such as societal norms, or pressure from others. It also implies that individuals have a duty to use their own reason and judgement to make decisions that align with moral principles, rather than blindly, following authority or tradition.

Please make sure all of this information is in a body paragraph so I can add to my reflection you can add extra information to make it sound better and extra explanation to support your quote and your point and extra information for the point make sure this is in a university level tone, and make a good use of advanced words make sure it’s information at a grade 12 university level YOU CAN ADD EXTRA INFO TO SUPPORT AND MAKE IT SOUND BETTER

EXPLAIN THE POINT THOROUGHLY BEFORE YOU SUPPORT IT WITH THE PROOF THEN THOROUGHLY EXPLAIN IT
