After exploring the arguments related to your issues, take a moment to consider the bigger picture. Then, briefly reflect (in 1 to 2 paragraphs) on the importance of persuasion for the issue you are most likely to write about. Be specific in your assignment; this information will help guide you as you work on your project in the coming weeks.
Identify which side you might argue if you plan to pursue this issue in your final persuasive essay.
Identify your potential audienceand why your topic would be relevant to them.
