I plan on doing my report on the difference between each side of the argument of whether
we should have elective courses or not. I do not plan to have my opinion in here nor will I even
make it seem like I have an opinion on this subject. I plan on discussing each side of the story
and how they use things to make the reader believe in what they believe in. I plan on analyzing
each detail and explaining just how they did it.
I plan on including each side farley and giving examples from each side equally. I plan to
try and incorporate all that I have learned while writing this essay not just what it's about. Some
methods of doing these things would be using a lot of information. People can never go wrong
with information to back up why you think and or say something. Too much is never enough. I
plan to have information to back up why I used certain information and I plan to have
information to back up my information (over achiever right). I plan to have backup reasons as to
why I say the stuff I say so no one can fight my fight (if you know what I mean).
I dont want people to question my work or what I am trying to sell to them. I want to
persuade my class just like the people that I read [their works] persuaded me. I want to make
them believe what I believe and what I found out. I dont want my essay to burn and crash I want
it to fly in the wind. My goal for this is to have a good essay that I can proudly present in front of
the class. Also I want to get a good grade to pass the class because priorities.
Therefor all of this should get me there. If I work hard enough and really make sure that
all of this makes sense and has plenty of reasons not to question anything that I am putting forth
to the table then everything should be good.
