Intro: Research a recent civic issue (2024) published in the Editorial section of the Daily AztecLinks to an external site.. The author(s) must make an argument which is of concern to a specific community of non-experts (students of a particular school, gender, occupation, fandom, etc.). Identify multiple perspectives from which this issue is viewed.  Use this information to create a persuasive text that uses ethical persuasive strategies to advance social understanding, change, or action. This project should be presented in a genre that would be commonly used to communicate with members of this community.
Texts: Find a Daily AztecLinks to an external site. article AND additional sources which you will cite in support of your argument. See the details in the lecture slides and in the rubric below. Not all of these outside sources have to be scholarly articles (many can come from a general internet search).
Purpose:  Respond to an author’s argument and try to persuade the audience of that article to agree with your point of view. Regardless of whether you agree with the Daily AztecLinks to an external site.’s editorial, you will create a rebuttal in which you play the opposite perspective (although you are encouraged to create some places of agreement). Use a variety of Rhetorical Strategies to appeal to Ethos, Pathos, and Logos. Avoid fallacies, ad hominem attacks and maintain an argument which wouldn’t be offensive to the average person’s conscience. It must be an ethical argument. 
Audience: Your audience consists of those who would have read the article you researched, plus a more general audience. Consider them to have limited knowledge of the topic you are debating (explanation of the context of this argument will be necessary).
