You will notice that these websites have several writers’ opinions covering various opinions and perspectives on the issue.  Each issue has three or more perspectives.  You only need to include three of these, but be sure to look at all of them.  One of the most important parts of your essay is the inclusion of the strongest voice that disagrees with you.

You should use the sources to support your ideas, not replace them.  You should have an understanding of the basic concepts of formal argument structure.  You will be expected to follow MLA documentation, to edit and proofread carefully, and to revise several drafts.

·               Making sure to consider all sides.  Use at least three sources to support not only your stand, but also the best points of those who oppose your stand. 

·               Structure your essay carefully starting with a clear introduction and thesis statement, a background of the issue, points that support your position, a consideration of the opposition, a rebuttal to the opposition, and a strong conclusion.

·               Your essay should be four typed, double-spaced pages and use MLA documentation with a Works Cited page (page 5).  Edit thoroughly and proofread carefully.
