The Assignment
Write an essay that takes a position on a controversial issue. Present the issue to readers and take a position, and develop a convincing, well-reasoned argument. The issue must be arguable and not subject to absolute proof.
Guidelines
To write a position essay, you must first define the issue for readers and present its current situation clearly depending on the knowledge and information that your readers already know about the issue. After you delineate the issue, you must clearly state your position avoiding vagueness and indecision. This will be the thesis of your essay #2. To convince your readers that your position is right or much better than the opposition, you must develop your argumentative strategies which support your position. For example, you offer several key reasons (your topic sentences) and support them with examples, facts, statements from authorities, statistics, or your or others’ personal anecdotes. Make the reasons explicit in the body paragraphs. Expecting the objections and alternative arguments that may refute your argument, you must counter-argue them logically. Choose the strongest counter-argumentative point and refute it convincingly by showing its logical weakness. This will enhance the credibility of your essay and strengthen the argument.
