Wednesday:
Complete your persuasion map for the upcoming essay.
Essay prompt:
Should the Federal Government implement stricter controls on reports of CIA activity in the future?
Persuasion map instructions:
In the Introduction box, write a thesis statement. To do this, just flip the question into a statement that supports your claim.
Main Reasons:
In these boxes write the most compelling reasons that defend your thesis. If you are struggling to find a third reason, you can write a counterargument for Main Reason #3.
Facts or examples:
Use the texts from class ("Pro/Con", "Is Terror Ever Justified?") to find evidence to support your reasons. All evidence on the persuasion map must be cited with parenthetical citations; e.g. (Smith 6).
Conclusion:
Sum up your main points in one to two sentences.
This is a framework for our essay, so fill it out as completely as you can.
