For this Critical Thinking Assignment, you are to compose a working thesis that takes a definite position on the problem you are addressing in the report. The CT also needs to map a few of the main points you plan to explore. Your paper should accomplish the following:

• Identify the topic you have decided on. (The Topic I decided on is to write about Amazon.com Incorporated) Jeffery Bezos is a major founder of the company
• Develop a research question.
• State the overall claim that you want your report to address. This will be your working thesis, and it is apt to change as you progress in later weeks. It is fine to start simple, for now, and build in more complexity later.

Before you make a final discussion, try brainstorming. Choose two or three potential topics and research the key concepts involved to see if the topic holds your interest and is achievable.

Requirements:

• Use third person.
• Describe why you made your final selection and discuss in some detail the key concepts you think are important to that topic.

Your paper should be 2-3 pages in length and conform to CSU Global Writing Center (Links to an external site.), and your sources should be no more than 5 years old. Include at least two scholarly references in addition to the course textbook. The CSU Global Library is a good place to find these references.
