1-6 Journal: From Problem to Persuasion Assignment Task: Submit to complete this assignment

In this journal assignment, select two potential problems that

a) have two logical sides to the issue (your viewpoint and an opposing viewpoint);

b) are researchable; and

c) are related to your career or degree.

For your submission, write a fully developed paragraph for each problem (5-8 sentences each) explaining two sides to the issue (how is it argumentative?), how you plan to approach it in your project (what side are you going to take?), and why you're personally interested in it (of all the potential problems in your field or degree, why did you choose this?).

When writing the paragraphs, feel free to express any other thoughts or concerns you may have about the topic choices.

After exploring the argumentativeness of your problems, take a moment to consider the bigger picture.

Then, in one to two paragraphs, briefly reflect on the importance of persuasion with the potential topic you are most likely to write about.

Why is it important that people consider your side with your selected topic?

Who is your audience, and why is it important to convince them that your view on your topic is the better (or more correct) view?

Remember to try to be specific in your entry, as this information will help guide you as you work on your project in the coming weeks.
