Overview:
This assignment is private between you and the instructor. However, you will be discussing your work with your topic in future discussions with your peers. This week, you spent some time reflecting on persuasion in your everyday life. But why is persuasion so important? Let us think about that a little bit in this assignment.

Prompt

Identify two arguable sides of your first issue related to your career or degree field.

Part Two: After exploring both sides of each issue, choose one to write about in your final persuasive essay.

Specifically, you must also address the following rubric criteria:
