ENGL 1301 Week 7 Assignment Help | Central Texas College
Argumentation/Persuasive
Essay
Argumentation
Essay
Write
a 750-1000 word argumentation/persuasion essay using any approach as a method
of development.
An
effective argumentative essay must have evidence to make its case; most
arguments that occur in daily life happen in the heat of the moment and are
more likely directed toward saving one's own pride than toward giving clear and
supportive proof to one's claims.
Writing
Approach
Knowing
how to brainstorm is going to save you from writing a weak essay. Also, knowing
how to support your claims with evidence from outside sources will further
strengthen your essay. For that reason, this assignment requires the use of two
references. In addition, you will add a Works Cited page at the end of your
essay. Finally, your Works Cited page will be in MLA (Modern Language
Association) format so that all information provided will be easy for your
reader to find.
Before
attempting this essay:
- Review all of the
chapter sections located in Lessons 6 and 7.
- Review the
available documents and sources located at the Helpful Resources folder on
the course menu.
Writing
Assignment
Purpose:
to persuade
Method
of Development: your choice
Choose
your own topic, but make sure that it is something that can actually be
argued. You cannot argue something that is a fact. You can argue for
or against something. Some examples are:
- Should teenagers
be able to play violent video games?
- Should cellphones
be allowed in the classroom?
- Is social media
destroying the way we communicate?
The
above items can be argued but there are many others to choose from. The choice
is yours. If you have something in mind but you are unsure if it will work as
an argumentative/persuasive essay, please send me a message through the
Messages link for assistance.
Please
review this Powerpoint file on Scholarly Sources.
Keep
these factors in mind when determining what sources should support your writing
analysis.
Reminders:
1. Brainstorm
for topics.
2. Choose
one topic, choose a method of development, and organize all details
accordingly.
3. Research
for appropriate evidence to support your argument. While you are researching,
be sure to note all information necessary to fill out your Works Cited page for
that entry.
4. Remember
your conclusion and your Works Cited page in MLA format.
5. Check
the syllabus for due dates.
