Your assignment is to use the research sources
provided to write a multi-paragraph
argumentative response in which you agree or
disagree with the above statement. Make sure
you establish an argumentative claim and
support that claim with reasons and details from
the sources you have read. Clearly organize your
response and elaborate on your ideas. Develop
your ideas clearly and use your own words,
except when quoting directly from sources. Be
sure to identify the sources by author, title, or
number when using details or facts directly from
the sources.
Argumentative Scoring:
Your argumentative response will be scored
using the following:
1. Organization/purpose: How well did you
state and maintain your claim with a logical
progression of ideas from beginning to end?
How well did your ideas thoughtfully flow
from beginning to end using effective
transitions? How effective was your
introduction and or conclusion?
2. Elaboration/evidence: How well did you
integrate relevant and specific information
from the sources? How well did you
elaborate your ideas? How well did you
address counterclaims? How well did you
clearly state ideas in your own words using
precise language that is appropriate for your
audience and purpose? How well did you
reference the sources you used by author,
title, or number?
3. Conventions: How well did you follow the
rules of grammar usage, punctuation,
capitalization, and spelling?
