Assignment

Overview

In Milestone One, you drafted the Introduction section and Parts A, B, and C of the Primary Argument section of your final project, the critical essay.

For Milestone Two, you will complete a draft of parts D and E of the Primary Argument and the Counterargument sections of your critical essay. This work will help you to further establish your final project. The more rigor and detail that you put into addressing each question, the more you will set yourself up for success on the final project.

Prompt

Draft the Primary Argument section. Be sure to use course materials on bias and credibility in Module Four, as well as insights and ideas you gained from the discussions.

Before drafting the Counterargument section of your critical essay, read the articles listed under "Additional Resources" and "Scholarly Resources" columns for your article found on the Final Project Topics and Resources page in Brightspace.

1. Provide specific examples to support your observations.

B. Credibility: Assess the credibility of the overall argument (e.g., using the CRAAP test).

1. Were the resources used to support the argument credible? Why or why not?

2. Does the credibility of the resources support or undermine the article's claims? How?

II. Counterargument: Begin to craft a counterargument to the argument presented in the Primary Article for your chosen topic.

A. Argument Details: Submit the claim that you are making in your alternative argument.

1. Identify at least two premises and a conclusion.

2. Support your response with evidence using the provided resources in the Additional Resources and Scholarly Resources sections found on the Final Project Topics and Resources page.
