How to respond in a "Debate This" discussion:
A debate activity will contain a declarative statement. Your
job is to take a "for" or "against" position. In other words,
either you agree with the statement or you do not.
The real work is offering reasons and evidence to support your
position. Try to think in clear terms. State the proposition and
then say "because" to state your reason. Your response should
be
1-2 paragraphs in length.
Your statement for debate in this conference is below.
Use strong "evidence" to support your position. You may
support your position with a well-reasoned, analytical response
and/or you may use outside resources to serve as evidence
(studies, statistics, articles, etc.) Provide source support where
appropriate.
Debate this
:
“Because of the often anonymous nature of the Internet,
defamation has become an outdated legal concept. It is now too
difficult to track down the person responsible for the
defamatory statement.”

Argument paper/English 1 Spring 2014 Argument Assignment Paper.doc PAGE English 1: Argumentative Essay Assignment The Assignment: Write a six-to-ten page argument paper that addresses a current issue that will address our theme of the impact of technology on communication on ourselves, on our world and on what it means to be human (Barrios, 583). The topic and the issue for this paper is the same as your exploratory paper assignment. The purpose of this paper is to present your position on the issue and then argue why by presenting your own reasons and evidence to support your thesis statement. Locating Sources for Research. The purpose of the exploratory paper was to explore different writers and their position, their perspective, and the types of evidence they used in order to form your own position and perspective. You have three sources that you may use in your paper. For this paper, you must include a variety of sources; they cannot all come from Web sites. Search SMC’s library online catalog, search for a book, search online databases, find newspaper articles, use the search engine Google scholar at www.google.com, or www.yahoo.com . In addition, observations or experience from your personal life are not allowable. Refer to the following handouts: “Research Guide for Papers,” “Sources Acceptable for Academic Papers.” Both of these handouts are on eCompanion. If you include an article from a Website, there must be a date and a sponsor/publisher. If this is not available you cannot use this source. Thesis Statement and Claim: Does your thesis clearly include a claim? Is it arguable? Does it take a perspective on an issue? Is it narrow and specific enough for the length of this assignment? Is it focused on one subject? Is it a claim of policy where you argue that certainpolicies should be changed? Is it a claim of value where you argue that some action, belief, or policy is morally wrong, good, or bad? Once your claim is clear, you must develop reasons that match and correspond to the type of claim being made. Audience/Point of View: An effective argument is tailored to its audience. The reasons and the types of evidence you offer, the needs and values to which you appeal, terms defined, all depend on your audience and the type of claim. Ask: What does your audience know or not know about your topic? The audience is your instructor and classmates. Never assume that the audience is familiar with your topic or terms. You may need to include definitions and relevant details to help the audience understand your position in the first body paragraph. For this argument essay, you will use only the third-person point of view. No, “I” “We” or “You.” Content/Body Paragraphs. For the length of this assignment, you should have at least three-to-four distinct and relevant reasons to support your thesis. Follow the guidelines for writing the argument paper when developing your reasons. Use the “because” clause approach.

Module 7 Discussion Board Algebra 1. What does it mean when something grows or decays exponentially? How is that different then rising or falling linearly? 2. Give an example of a real life application of exponential growth or decay. Include the link to a website to show this. Please answer as two different posts. You need three posts for full credit. When you reply to others in the class, your replies should contain original thought and/or a follow up question. Classical Argument Persuasion and ArgumentPersuasion is the process of drawing conclusions and getting others to accept them and act upon them.Argumentation is the process of drawing conclusions after looking at both sides of an issue and getting others to accept one side based upon logic and careful exploration of facts. Rhetoric and AudienceRhetoric is the “art of speaking or writing effectively”It is a set of skills used in college and in the business world Effective communication is an important skill in the work forceEffective communication gets our point across without embarrassment for ourselves or others. Effective communication understands what the audience does and does not know about the topic. Aristotle’s Appeals: Ethos, Logos, and PathosAristotle was a student of Plato. Later, he was a teacher for Alexander the Great. He identified three appeals that can be used to persuade others. Ethos=ethics. Logos=logic. Pathos=emotion Ethos=Ethics, CredibilityAs a writer, you will establish your credibility through careful research. Articles from experts in the field of study will help you build your ethos in the paper. An advertisement using ethos would be a McDonald’s commercial stating the number of years in business (hence they know how to make a decent hamburger). A car dealership might also state how long they have been at the same location. Or, the dealership might make sure you know“ 2013 Time Dealer of the year award nominee for being among the nation’s most successful auto dealers who also demonstrate a long-standing commitment to community service” (Fuson Automotive). Logos=LogicWhen using logos in an argument, we provide facts, statistics, evidence, and reason. An automobile commercial stating the vehicle gets x mpg is proving a logos appeal. When gas prices climb, auto makers want to highlight how many miles per gallon the car can travel. Therefore, a car advertised as getting 40 mpg would appeal to a consumer who travels a distance of 40 miles to and from work. If the reader finds the evidence given “logical” it will appeal to the reader. Pathos=EmotionA pathos appeal will tap into human emotions. Some commercials are deliberately funny and are geared to draw us to the restaurant or product being advertised. From about mid-January until February 14, TV ads focus on how we should tell our “significant” other “I love you.” Commercials such as the “Sandals Resort” plays to adults who want a romantic get-away. We are frequently told ...

35806 Topic: Abortion Number of Pages: 5 (Double Spaced) Number of sources: 3 Writing Style: APA Type of document: Essay Academic Level:Undergraduate Category: Philosophy Language Style: English (U.S.) Order Instructions: Week 5 - Final Paper Ethical Reasoning [WLO: 3] [CLOs: 1, 2, 3, 4] Please read these assignment instructions before writing your paper as they contain very precise and specific instructions on both the content and format requirements. You should download the provided outlinePreview the document and use that to structure your paper, and consult the assignment guidancePreview the document and modeled examplePreview the document for additional help. Finally, before submitting your assignment please use the checklistPreview the document to ensure that you have completed all of the requirements. Overview This course has three written assignments that build upon one another and are designed to take you step-by-step through a process of writing a paper that identifies an ethical question, examines the context, issues, and arguments surrounding the question, and attempts to defend an answer to that question using strong moral reasoning. In the Week 1 assignment, “Ethical Question,” you chose an ethical question, provided an introduction, a position statement and supporting reason, and an opposing position statement and supporting reason. In the Week 3 assignment, “Applying an Ethical Theory,” you explained utilitarianism, deontology, or virtue ethics, including its core moral principle or ideal, and applied that theory to the topic by demonstrating how its principles would support a particular position on your ethical question. In this final written assignment, you will combine what you have done in these two exercises by examining an ethical issue and defending your own position on an ethical question regarding that issue. This final written assignment should be written in essay form with the following clearly labeled sections: Introduction Ethical Argument Explanation and Defense Objection and Response Conclusion The paper should be between 1,300 and 1,500 words, utilize three scholarly resources, and include a title page and reference page. Part 1: Introduction In this section of the paper, you will begin with your ethical question, introduce the topic and paper, and close with a thesis statement. The ethical question may be the same as your Week 3 written assignment (“Applying an Ethical Theory”) or a revised version of it. The introduction should be revised in a way that reflects your additional thinking on the issue and question. End this section with a thesis statement that states your position on the issue (the answer to the ethical question you believe is strongest) and provides a brief summary of the main ideas you will be presenting in the paper. Please see the assignment guidance for examples of thesis statements. Place the introduction under the Part 1: Introduction heading. Part 2: E.

I am doing a paper on Dr. Isaac Watts for my class. This paper is 9 pages total but broken down into 3 separate parts. I have already completed the first two parts. The biography and the works sections of this paper. This paper that I need wrote is about Dr. Issac Watts theology and it is only 3 pages no more or no less. Posted below are the instructions from the professor. You will need to discuss 3 of Isaac Watts major themes that explain his THEOLOGY. the professor has suggested taking a look at some of his sermons and things of the sort. This paper will need to be written in Turabian with footnotes. Identify three major themes that are distinct to the church figure, or for which he/she is widely known. For example, if writing on Martin Luther (who is a major figure and not an option for this assignment) one would need to include justification by faith alone, or if John Wesley (another option unavailable) the paper would need to include a description of Christian perfection. Use at minimum four primary and secondary sources (again, academic and peer-reviewed if it’s a secondary source). .

I am all for Golden's ideas of museums being catalysts in their respective communities. However, I pose this question to you and the rest of the class... how often do you go to a museum? How often, after having visited a museum, have you felt charged with the task to make changes in your life as well as those of others? All with art, or through being creative? If you say, not often enough, or rarely, then we may have to reconsider Golden's idealistic views of the museum. The concept of a museum being a cultural catalyst in a community is a great one, but what will it take for... movement to actually transpire in the community, with people? Ideas? Thoughts? .

Humans have benefitted from an overall warmer climate over the past millennia. However, some now voice deep concern over the possibility of human activity leading to an acceleration of a global warming trend. There are others who refute this claim of human activity being responsible for change in climate and point to how climate has always fluctuated throughout the life of planet Earth. 1) Identify exactly what kind of human activity is being charged with contributing to the warming trend. 2) What evidence is used to refute this charge. Do you think we need more evidence before taking action to reduce CO 2 emissions? Or is it better to act now to reduce CO 2 emissions? What are the possible costs and benefits of each of these two strategies? Discussion Board Grading Rubric: 1. Original posting: (8 points) Posting fully addresses the discussion board questions. (2 points) Few grammatical or stylistic errors. (2 points) Discussion at a critical level, not just recitation of facts. (2 points) Length of posting consists of approximately 100 words (minimum).
