This is a synthesis essay.
·
Your goal is to “synthesize” your sources in
the paragraphs, which means to connect them on a single point or topic of
discussion.
·
You can take one of two approaches:
o
Answer a course question. Your
thesis is your reply to the course question. Bring in sources to support
your thesis. Start with the thesis and devise topic sentences for your
paragraphs. You will likely need 3-5 sub-points to develop in the body of the
paper.
o
Develop a position you have arrived at through
your reading and reflection on your course topic this semester. Your
thesis is your opinion statement. Defend your position sources and your own
analysis and commentary. Start with the
thesis and devise topic sentences for your paragraphs. You will likely need 3-5
sub-points to develop in the body of the paper.
Use four sources with at least three(files incuded):

National Association of Realtors. (Sept. 2021). The Impact of Student Loan Debt Executive Summary. https://www.nar.realtor/research-and-statistics/research-reports/the-impact-of-student-loan-debt.
College Promise Programs: Additive to Student Loan Debt Cancellation. Perspectives on Urban Education, 20(1), 1–8.

4th “Article” should be about Germanys approach to free tuition compared to the offers here. I think country size comparison, tackling as a national issue isnt the best approach.

Whichever of the two approaches you take, do
the following:
o
Integrate or “synthesize” your comments so
that you are using sources to compare, contrast, support, or disagree with one
another and with your own views. You can do that by bringing multiple sources
into a single paragraph or by moving between paragraphs but using new sources
and information to clarify, extend, contrast, support, or disagree with what
has been said previously in the paper. The goal of this paper is higher-level
synthesis or connection between various sources and your own thesis.
o
Provide a Works Cited page (if using MLA
format) or a References page (if using APA format) with your source citations
documented according to MLA or APA standards. Provide at least one
parenthetical citation for each source within the document wherever you use
each source, whether you quote or paraphrase from it.
o
Integrate sources smoothly by using a signal
phrase to introduce quotes: According to one researcher on this topic, “Quote”
(citation).
Feel
free to bring in tables, graphs, charts, and visuals on your topic, though
document your use of visuals according to MLA or APA standards
