Students will be spending the rest of this week and the majority of next week working on a Random Act of Kindness proposal. Students must compose an argumentative paper that includes research on why their random act of kindness will help.For example, my sample proposal is about being kind on social media. For my research, I found evidence on how unkind people are on social media and how it affects people's state of mind. I then argued that kind words on social media might affect people's state of mind in a positive way.
You can see my completed sample RAK Proposal here, and the rubric is here.
Requirements for this proposal are:
- An introduction, outlining your Random Act of Kindness and stating your thesis on what you think your RAK will do to help.
- Three pieces of evidence from researched sources (with sources credited) backing up your ideas.
- Your own ideas about how this research relates to the random act of kindness.
- A conclusion that wraps up your ideas, and calls your reader to action.
