Informative Topicweek 5 Position Describe The Top

Initial Post is 250 words. Please use chiago style citation.

Describe the topics you will use for these 3 assignments (look at the Assignments link to see detailed descriptions of the assignments):

  • Week 3 Speech: Informative Topic
  • Week 5 Position Paper: Debatable Topic
  • Week 7 Analysis Paper: Debatable Topic

Describe a topic (terrorism) you will use for each of these assignments for the Week 2 Forum. You may want to start this process by thinking of your field of study (some hints are shown in the lesson). As you think about your topics, keep in mind your purpose (to inform and persuade). Decide if you need to narrow your topic a bit. Think about your audience and how you can help your reader understand the topic. You can talk about these things in your forum post. See example post below.

An informative topic informs the reader of a topic.

A debatable topic (or persuasive topic) is a topic that people can agree or disagree and will have many alternative viewpoints.

*** Since you are all majoring in different fields of study, some of you may be using APA, some of you may be using Chicago Turabian or some of you may be using MLA for your citations, please tell me in your post which notation style you are using.***

For my Position paper topic, I will add details to my topic by saying that ‘The benefits of Bilingual Education include allowing students to retain their first language, heritage, and permitting students to learn English little by little. For my Analysis paper topic, I will add details on my topic by…”
