Description:
This argumentative essay requires you to pose an argument about a subject of your choosing. Itwill take a stance on a specific topic (social media, climate change, etc.) for an educated butnon-expert audience (i.e. me). Your analysis must engage with two peer-reviewed sources youhave located while writing the paper. If you would like, you may use the topic and sources thatyou located for your annotated bibliography assignment, but this is not mandatory. My gradingwill focus on essay structure, logical development, rhetoric, and incorporation of researchmaterials. Of course, grammar, syntax, spelling, and general prose mechanics are integralelements of effective writing; grammatical/syntactical errors tend to obscure and sabotagewritten ideas. As such, I will also emphasize a good grasp of writing mechanics while grading.For analysis, please provide

to your argument. Assess thatcounter-argument and prove to your reader (me) why your claim still holds in spite of it.
