1. Presenting an opinion
The purpose of this assignment is to understand why research and evaluating evidence is important. You are asked to select one topic and, in one paragraph, present your thesis (belief) about the topics. Then explain why you believe that your thesis has merit or is valid. This will help us understand how we come to believe what we believe. We will have the opportunity to really think about the ideas and values we hold and why we hold them.
Your writing assignment will be to find one academic source using the TCC library website. That source should be an academic journal. After selecting that source and reading that source, you will include that source as evidence in your paragraph. Incorporate one quote from your source into your paragraph. That quote should speak for the article as a whole. Use in text MLA citation and include a Works Cited (MLA format) page for the source.
