Outline of an ADEPT paragraph for science writing A- Assertive topic sentence part of an argument you’re making stated as if it's fact D – detail sentence E – evidence P – provide elaboration T – transition to next paragraph/ or tie back to thesis See next slide for details Assertive Topic Sentence (A): An assertion from your thesis that provides a roadmap for the paragraph Detail Sentence (D): An assertive sentence that breaks down the topic sentence into a smaller topics (2x per paragraph) Evidence (E): The paraphrased pieces from your research (notecards) used to support your “A” Use Signal Phrases and in-text citations. NO DIRECT QUOTES are used. (2x per paragraph) Provide Elaboration (P): Provides analysis of paraphrased piece of text. Explains how the evidence (E) supports the detail sentence (D). **should be more than one sentence. Transition OR Ties Back to Thesis (T) Begins with a transitional phrase and connects ideas within a paragraph, paragraphs together, or to the thesis Transitional Phrases: To Add: In addition, Equally important, Moreover, Next, Lastly To Compare: Yet, However, Although, Whereas, On the other hand, Compared to To Prove: Since, For the same reason, Furthermore, In fact Signal Phrase: Identifies where the information in your “E” is coming from: Refutes, explains, argues, states, questions, illustrates, identifies, exclaims, etc. In-Text Citation: Identifies the source of your “E” in APA format Always list author’s last name (or publisher) and year: If starting a sentence with citations , parentheses are needed around the year. Example: According to Katoa (2015) climate data shows…. Or Katoa (2015) refutes….. If ending a sentence with the citation, use parentheses around both the author and the year. Climate data shows warming trends in the last twenty years (Katoa, 2015). ADEPT Paragraph Format Example prompt: Is Climate Change the result of human intervention or natural forces? Assert (A): The source of climate change is increased carbon dioxide from polluted air. Detail (D): Both factories and transportation are influencing carbon dioxide levels in the air. Evidence (E) The University of Washington (2011) conducted a study that showed factories release smoke with carbon dioxide and other pollutants. According to the EPA (2014) carbon dioxide acts like a greenhouse gas warming the planet. Cars, trains, and buses release exhaust and waste that adds pollution to the air (University of Washington, 2011). Provide Elaboration, Transition (P,T) – this is what the final paragraph will look like with P & T added. The source of climate change is increased carbon dioxide from polluted air. Both factories and transportation are influencing carbon dioxide levels in the air. The University of Washington (2011) conducted a study that showed factories release smoke with carbon dioxide and other pollutants. Pollution levels increase in the atmosphere when this happens. According to the EPA (2014) too much carbon dioxide acts like a greenhouse gas warming the planet. Like a greenhouse, carbon dioxide traps heat and influences climate conditions. Factories are not the only source of more carbon dioxide. Cars, trains, and buses release exhaust that adds more pollution to the air (University of Washington, 2011). Many people are driving cars or riding buses on a daily basis and contributing to air pollution. Since both factories and transportation release pollution they are equally important to climate change.
