Review your annotations from Whey We Sleep and class discussions. What interested you? What do you have an opinion about? What do you want to find out more about? Ask yourself HOW/WHY questions about Why We Sleep. Here is a “how/why” questions I might ask after reading Why We Sleep: “How can society better accommodate people with “night owl” tendencies?” “Since caffeine has such an impact on sleep, should schools stop putting caffeinated energy drinks in vending machines?” The answer to that question – a short, clear statement of opinion – would serve as the foundation of a claim. Your claim needs to be loosely related to the text, but feel free to get creative here. Based on the above advice, write your claim (your opinion, which you can back up with information in the book/articles). Place it toward the beginning of your paper; typically, in an academic paper, you will find a claim in the last sentence of the paper’s introduction. Remember, you want to write an EXPLICIT argument, which means your claim must be debatable. A lot of the information Walker shares is simply factual and not debatable; you want to USE that information to support a debatable claim you are making. Once you have a clear, concise claim, find 3-4 pieces of evidence that support that claim.
You will find some of this evidence within Why We Sleep.
You should find at least one ADDITIONAL credible source to add to your argument. You can (and should) use personal experience as evidence when you can.
Build P.I.E. paragraphs around each of those pieces of evidence. Make sure you create APA in-text citations for each.
Put together a references page using APA formatting.
