Divine foreknowledge objection to human freedom.

 

Paper details:

Follow the added file exactly. All questions in order under each paragraph. Added information: 1. Introduction Here you should just simply state what the paper is about: a particular argument (with a name), and what you’re going to do with it (state it, explain it, and evaluate it) and then what you thought about it (that it was a convincing argument or that it was an unconvincing argument). It should read almost like a road map for the journey the paper takes you on. 2. The Argument Just say something that in introduces it. One way is to say “the following is the (name of the argument)”: P1… P2… C… That’s it! 3. Explain premise 1. Sometimes arguments have some technical terminology that needs explaining, as well as the rationale (why you should believe it). That’s what you’re doing here, just sorting this premise out on its own in isolation. The assignment has a series of questions and other things you need to do in order to accomplish this. As long as you do these things, in the right order (the order they appear on the assignment) you should do just fine. Just make sure it all flows together nicely so that it makes sense. 4. Explain premise 2. Basically the same thing as above but for a different premise. 5. Explain the conclusion. Here you wrap up explaining the argument: say what kind of argument it is, why it is this kind of argument, and the upshot of the conclusion turns out to be true. Largely you’re doing almost the same thing as the last two paragraphs in terms of doing the things the assignment asks in the order it asks you to do them. 6. Evaluate the argument. Here you are presenting two sides that you could take. First the side that opposes the argument. Pick the weakest premise and argue against it on behalf of the opposition with some rationale (the reason that the premise is argued to be false). Then respond on the side that would defend the argument against the objection from the other side. Once you have laid out both sides, pick one of them and say why you picked this side rather than the other. Again, address all the points that the assignment asks you to, in the order it asks you to, and you’ll do fine. To answer your question about this part, you can bring in something like an outside source to justify whatever position you take. That is a fine way to do it, but it isn’t necessary. It just has to be your reason and it should be one that you clearly thought about. 7. Conclusion. Do exactly what you did in the introduction, but in past tense. Summarize the paper with a simple map of the journey “In this paper, I stated explained and evaluated the (name of the argument). My thesis is that it was (your stance on whether it was convincing or not)”.

Paper details:

PART I: INTRODUCTION (15 points) Topic: Make sure the proposal starts on a general level with some type of introductory remarks before going into the details of the specific research problem you are planning to research. This can be accomplished by providing a frame of reference, a definition, or a discussion of the significance of the topic in the field. Provide a statement of the problem and significance of the study that you are examining. (remember: this is more than one sentence or paragraph. You should explain and support your problem. Make sure you also clearly explain why it is important (significance) as a transition in the writing to your research questions.) Rationalize the importance of your study. Make sure the research question/s (and hypothesis) are fully listed. (optionally, these could go in the method…if you do that then make sure to put an overarching broad question here that frames your study- this is more likely in quantitative where you would also need hypothesis) Additional information is optional. This may include aims, objectives, limitations, and a summary. PART II: LITERATURE REVIEW (15 points) The literature review is written to place your study within the context of existing knowledge and other studies in your discipline. It gives recognition to other scholars and it also allows you to point out what is new about your research. Ideally, at least five studies should be discussed in the literature review. After you have written the literature review, read it carefully and make sure it is clear. Notice whether you can easily determine how the proposal is building on earlier studies, as well as exploring a line of research that is new. Synthesize the information into topics that are specifically relevant to your research question. When you mention other studies they are usually cited by the author’s last name and the date of publication. For example: “Another important study in the area (Chan and Gibbs, 2017) found that…” Later on, in the bibliography, you will provide a full citation to all the studies you cited in your proposal. 4. if you have a theory supporting your study, you should include this in your literature review. (second weekend) 5. a final short paragraph should explain how your study is situated in the current literature (second weekend) PART III: METHODOLOGY (15 points) Provide a full description of your general method and design. The methodology should be sufficiently detailed so that it can be replicated. The details that you include in describe your method will depend on the type of method you feel is best to propose for studying your topic. Explain the details of your data collection. Describe the instruments or means of data collection you are planning to use. Please include any relative information pertaining to each instrument or protocol. (References, Appendices) Validity and reliability or trustworthiness information – Process and citations of used measures should be included. (Validity/Reliability = quantitative & trustworthiness = qualitative) Discuss the data collection procedures (HOW) (primary or secondary texts, interviews, surveys, experimental, etc.) Describe the analysis process you will use with data. (reference the theory as needed) You are making the best match of analysis based on the data you think you will produce through your data collection. PART IV: Conclusion (2 points) Wrap up your proposal and make a predictive statement about your research. (this is unique to our proposal and not the typical research study conclusion)
