As a follow up to your last DQ and selected reading, create your own claim in support or opposition of the writer’s argument. In a 1000-word, develop an argument in which you support your point-of-view using varied forms of evidence.
Build:
Create a clear claim and conduct preliminary research, critically examining sources
Although at this stage you may not yet have all the answers to the posed problem, try to explore possible solutions
Use at least two viable external sources
Paraphrase, quote, and summarize as needed to avoid plagiarism
But maintain ownership by selectively and briefly embedding others’ views
Examine possible objections to your point of view; consider acknowledging strong points made by the opposition in at least one paragraph.
You cannot ‘see’ your opposition, so research opposing views
