Assignment Task:

Brainstorming Activity: Persuasive Essay

Instructions: Throughout the first seven weeks of this term, you've already gathered a great deal of research and acquired a significant amount of knowledge that should help you develop the second essay. However, you'll need to take the time to go back through your research to decide how it fits (or doesn't) into the Persuasive Essay. The more time you take now to assess your existing research's appropriateness for the second essay, the easier research and drafting tasks will be as you move into the drafting process.

Use the sources and knowledge you acquired while writing the first essay to complete this brainstorming assignment and develop material for the second essay by answering each of the questions below. Eventually, your outline and draft will likely be heavily based on this brainstorming activity if you complete it thoroughly and thoughtfully.

Be sure you have read, listened to, and completed all the other materials and assignments (in LU07 and LU08) introducing and explaining the Persuasive Essay before attempting to complete this prewriting activity. Also remember that, as explained in the "Preparing to Write the Persuasive Essay" lecture, you may end up addressing more counterarguments than this brainstorming sheet allows room for. If that's the case, adjust your brainstorming process accordingly.

When you have finished this brainstorming assignment, upload it to the appropriate submission area in MyHills.
