From Aims of Argument -
Write an editorial in which you show your understanding of rhetorical strategies, persuasive appeals and audience awareness. This requires you to have a good understanding of your audiences' knowledge and assumptions. You will use the persuasive appeals of logic, emotion and character. You will also use rhetorical strategies.
While your editorial will show deliberate use of appeals and strategies, it will also need to responsibly use outside sources. The reading assignments for this unit will be required as evidence or counterevidence. You may additionally use personal experience or references to popular culture or American society.
The editorial will be 3-4 type written pages in length. Your audience will be readers of The Daily Aztec.
Your project is to answer the question:
"Should the genetic modification of embryos for either enhancement or therapeutic purposes be something we, as a society, strive to achieve or prevent?"
