Reflect: When considering a research topic, consider an interesting topic that is worth further research.

It is a good idea to pick a topic in which you can provide a good argument for both sides of the societal issue.

Identify two global societal issues from the following list that you would consider researching further for your Week Five Final Argumentative Essay: adult illiteracy, funding for General Education vs STEM in primary and secondary schools, minimum wage, oceans desertification, overcoming the digital divide, refugee (escaping persecution, war, or death) crises, species extinctions (modern), tax havens, Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP), universal statement of human rights (pick one), airport security, or wealth disparity.

Explain why scholarly sources should be used to support your writing on the selected topic.

Download and attach a PDF copy of one of the peer-reviewed scholarly articles that you found from the Ashford University Library to your answer using the "Attach" function located below your response.

Respond to Peers: Review your classmates' posts, and respond to at least two of your peers by Day 7.
