Topic: The differences between the education system in the United States and the education system in Britain.
Thesis: Because studies in Britain are generally more narrowly focused and in depth than studies in the United States, which tend to cover more subject areas and don’t go into as much detail, the structure of Britain’s education system is preferable to that of the United States.
Major Points:
· Provide statistics to show which states in the US have education departments that are below standards.
· Compare/contrast secondary education drop out rates in Britain vs. the United States
· Compare/contrast education requirements in Britain vs. the United States
· Compare/contrast course curriculums in Britain vs. the United States
· Compare/contrast government funding for grades K-12 and for post-secondary education in both countries
· Compare/contrast overall job openings for someone from Britain vs. someone from the United States
Goal:
In this paper, I want to convince the reader that the education system in the United States can be improved. I will do this by comparing the United States’ education system to Britain’s. I will also provide suggestions as to how this can be done.

Sounds really interesting! Maybe you could present some variables to why the US education is so much less, for example, we have a larger population.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure if Europe has any type of standardized testing but if you could compare standardized test scores or something of that nature it would make your argument even stronger.
ReplyDeleteI think that you should provide statistics, but be sure that your statistics are credible because statistics can be twisted in order to show one side of an argument. I think that this topic is very interesting, just be sure to provide lots of examples.
ReplyDeleteI think your topic is great. I also think that you should incorporate in your paper statistics that is important to your topic. Adding facts will make your argument stronger.
ReplyDeleteWhile facts add will add to your argument, you need to analyze and develop them in order to make a valid and applicable point. Then, you can really draw conclusions that the reader will beleive.
ReplyDeleteGood organization.
