Q For your DB assignment this week I would like you to locate and read an argument related to your Major Project. After reading the argument carefully, review my Intro. to Argumentation post (DB#4). In your DB response, summarize the article by identifying the Topic, Purpose, Thesis, a couple of key points of Support, and at least one Criticism the author(s) anticipates. Spend some time critiquing/evaluating the source. Was it published by a reputable periodical, newspaper, institution, or organization? Did the tone of the article strike you as fair minded or was the author attempting to unfairly manipulate/persuade the audience? Finally, in your opinion, is the argument persuasive? Why or why not?
