Thesis Draft

State your research projectâs major claim (or âthesisâ) using the format described in The Craft of Research section 8.2.1: âAlthough I acknowledge _____, I claim _____, because _____â (see p. 122-124). Then give the most important reasons and evidence you have found for that claim in your research. Be as clear and concise as you can. Try to keep your submission length to 1 page if possible.
