Assignment: Essay One
Find two articles on Opposing Viewpoints (or in the media – as long as they are current and substantial) that discuss the same social justice or current issue but with differing opinions. Both articles should be from reliable sources (we will consider this in class) and should be written within the last six months. (The pieces should not be ones we have already discussed together in class). We will talk where to find articles in session.
Process:
Looking for the articles for my paper was not hard for me at all because I had already had a topic which interested me. Moreso, of the fact of choosing which ones were feasible and reliable. After browsing Opposing Viewpoints, I came up with these two.
After reading and analyzing both articles, I then produced a really “shitty” outline, which is attached.
Although this outline was very bland, it helped during this process. Especially writing my introduction because that’s typically the hardest part for me. Also tying all of my thoughts together as one resulting in me creating what Dr.C would call a SHITTY FIRST DRAFT.
We then peer-reviewed and received input from our peers. Also interviewing them about their papers.
After changing and adding a few items based on the information given– I then created my masterpiece.
