This argumentative essay should serve as the foundation for your research paper. The<\/p>\n\n\n\n
argumentative essay must have at least 3 sources and not exceed 500 words<\/strong>, not counting the<\/p>\n\n\n\n title page and \u201cReferences\u201d (APA) or header and \u201cWorks Cited\u201d (MLA).<\/p>\n\n\n\n The essay should be built around your thesis for your research paper (Data Security and data privacy). It must include at least 6 of<\/p>\n\n\n\n the following argumentative strategies for supporting your argument or thesis:<\/p>\n\n\n\n 1. An analogy<\/p>\n\n\n\n 2. Cause\/effect<\/p>\n\n\n\n 3. Comparison \/contrast<\/p>\n\n\n\n 4. Definition<\/p>\n\n\n\n 5. Examples<\/p>\n\n\n\n 6. Humor<\/p>\n\n\n\n 7. Narration<\/p>\n\n\n\n 8. Problem\/solution<\/p>\n\n\n\n 9. Description<\/p>\n\n\n\n Specify in parentheses which argumentative strategy you are using when you deploy it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For this assignment only, place your thesis statement in bold font. A good way to set up your<\/p>\n\n\n\n thesis is to state some version of the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cAlthough the consensus is [x], I claim that…;\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n While some may think [x,] \u201cI argue, however, that…;\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Because the reality is [x], I contend, therefore, that….\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n In this way, you are adopting an argumentative stance toward your topic that requires defending.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Do not present a position that is widely acknowledged as factual, obvious, or objectively evident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There may be pros and cons or potential counterarguments. If your stance turns out to be quite<\/p>\n\n\n\n straightforward or plain, then frame it in such a way that your research presents a new insight or<\/p>\n\n\n\n some new, remarkable information on the subject.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Presenting counterarguments and then refuting them is a powerful argumentative strategy. If you<\/p>\n\n\n\n are able to accurately and fairly present an opposing point of view and then show how your own<\/p>\n\n\n\n argument is preferable, you will be much more convincing in persuading your audience to agree<\/p>\n\n\n\n with you. I strongly encourage you to deploy this strategy. See page 437 of your textbook:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Remember to consider what other perspectives exist on your topic\u2014and what<\/p>\n\n\n\n COUNTERARGUMENTS someone might have to your position. You may not agree<\/p>\n\n\n\n with them, but they might lead you to QUALIFY your thesis\u2014or even change your<\/p>\n\n\n\n position. Whatever you think about other viewpoints, be sure to ACKNOWLEDGE them<\/p>\n\n\n\n fairly and respectfully\u2014and to accommodate or refute them as possible. And carefully<\/p>\n\n\n\n investigate your reactions to opposing positions to be sure you aren\u2019t falling prey to<\/p>\n\n\n\n CONFIRMATION BIAS or ATTRIBUTION BIAS. They will help you to sharpen your<\/p>\n\n\n\n own thinking and your writing can only improve as a result (Lunsford, 437).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Finally, pay close attention to properly formatting your \u201cReferences\u201d (APA) <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This argumentative essay should serve as the foundation for your research paper.
