Unit 5 DB: Expressing a Position and Providing Evidence
Most academic assignments and essays require you to take a position on a topic. In this discussion board, you will make a choice of where you stand on one of the options. Do you prefer the city or the country? Why? Do you prefer Halloween or Thanksgiving? Why?.
Initial Response:
Select one of the following options and decide which side you prefer over the other. Write a paragraph that reflects why you chose one side over the other with three substantial reasons. For example, I choose to get my coffee at Starbucks over Dunkin for the following three reasons. The paragraph should be 5 to 7 sentences.
The city vs. the country
The beach vs. the mountains
Starbucks vs. Dunkin Donuts
Summer vs. Winter
Thanksgiving vs. Halloween
Peer Response: In response to your peers, review your peers’ responses and respond on whether you agree with their opinion and if they supported it completely. What would you have added to the argument?
