this is for my English 103 Critical/Argumentative writing..... Fact Claim outine..... 

You must choose a controversial topic, and you must take one side to the controversy.
To put it simply, a controversial topic is one where reasonable people completely disagree. Typical controversial topics have included gun control, abortion, immigration, legalizing marijuana, euthanasia, lowering the drinking age, death penalty, etc. However, I've also seen effective essays on school dress code, teaching the deaf, digital rights management, and much more.
You're free to choose your topic, but it must be genuinely controversial. Also, because you must write a college-level research paper, you must include outside research from credible, reliable sources. 

Fact claim Outline must be in the following format and meet the requirements:

  

The Outline is a blueprint for the final essay. It's NOT a rough draft. It's a short summary that explains how you will argue your topic in your final essay.

Your Outline must address the following:

1. Claim
2. Supports
3. Warrants
4. Opposing Arguments

Use headings. Your first heading is "Claim," your second is "Supports," and so on. That makes it very clear when you are discussing your supports, when you are addressing your warrants, and so on.

-Claim

State your claim in one or two sentences. This is your thesis.

-Supports

Describe the supports that back up your claim. A fact claim requires evidence (as opposed to emotional appeals), so include the specific evidence you have found (or will find).

Organize your evidence in order of importance. Your most important (most persuasive) facts should come first.

Do quality research. If you use well-regarded neutral sources, such as the New York Times, you gain credibility. If you pick highly controversial and clearly biased sources, such as High Times, you lose credibility.

If you cite a source, you MUST follow proper MLA formatting. That means a correct in-text citation and a Works Cited section. Don't forget this! I look for the Works Cited, and if it's not there, or if you've omitted in-text citations, you lower your grade.

-Warrant(s)

Include the warrant(s) that link your claim to your supports. For each, explain why you believe the warrant is shared with your audience and why it's important to your argument. Remember, if your audience disagrees with your assumptions, you cannot get them to agree with you.

-Opposing Arguments

Describe the opposing arguments to your position and how you plan to refute or accommodate them.
