This is an Argument Essay. Also cite sources, Cite in the body paragraphs, and have 5 sources ready. If you want to just add the links i can make the works cited page. I was thinking about it being about Pro covid Vaccines and masks and mandates but if that is too difficult write it about something like that.
Thank you so much:)
Heres the details on the paper and the criteria of what it should look like.
You’ll be making all kinds of arguments in your academic career, and quite possibly in your professional career as well. Why is one course of action better than another? How should particular events or texts or problems be interpreted? What’s the best answer to a given question? With this circumstance in mind, becoming familiar with—and hopefully, better at—this rhetorical genre and skill is what Essay #3 is all about.
An argument is commonly defined as a text that makes a claim supported by reasons and evidence, and your task for Essay #3 is to construct just such a text, one that makes a claim that you arrive at through conscientious research and analysis. To do this effectively, you’ll need to engage with the writing process fully, as you determine your subject matter, sketch out ideas, conduct relevant research, craft your rhetorical approach, hone your prose, and observe the conventions of scholarly citation and documentation.
The topic of your argumentative essay is up to you, but it should be meaningful to a general American audience, one that might logically care about or be affected by how the issue is decided in the future. Also, as best you can, consider topics that meet the following criteria:
The topic interests you.
You have some personal connection to the topic, some experience or knowledge pertaining to it that gives you a sense of investment in what you’re saying.
You know something about the topic, but you want to know and understand more.
You have a question (or questions) about the topic that you hope to answer through research.
People who read your essay could reasonably disagree with your point of view. In other words, your main point—your thesis—is debatable.
As a Cal Poly student, you have not submitted an essay about the topic in another course.
You can find credible sources that address the topic.
The topic is NOT related to abortion, capital punishment, or compensation for college athletes.
To find something to which you indeed have a personal connection, think about things you could tell a personal anecdote about or make a personal observation about. Such anecdotes and observations can lead you to explore issues and move you toward additional questions you would ask to investigate your subject matter further. A few examples of such anecdotes or observations:
I struggled taking the SAT. The time crunch was awful.
A kid in my high school was killed by a drunk driver, one who was repeat offender.
The players on the football team got to register for classes before I did, and that bugged me.
I hate my major. I was required to choose one, and my choice was totally random.
My friend struggled with anorexia, and I feel like there’s got to be a better way to intervene.
According to certain standards, most of my friends are binge drinkers. It seems way too normal somehow.
I’m on social media all the time.
I’ve given up on recycling.
I got pulled over by a cop and he let me off with a warning.
I got pulled over by a cop and I literally feared for my life.
We couldn’t get fireworks for July 4th. They were illegal.
Sometimes ads for products appear on my phone not long after I mention the product in conversation. It’s creepy.
Once you’ve determined your subject matter, your research can begin.
Due date: Tuesday, December 7th by 6 pm.
