Argumented Essay help
An Introduction to the Assignment
You will locate an online article, summarize it briefly, critique it, present a counterargument (also called a rebuttal), and create a Works Cited entry (optional). The essay will be five paragraphs long.
In face-to-face classes, the Works Cited entry was mandatory, so the rubric I gave you at the start of the semester states that I deduct points for an incorrectly done entry. I am revising this requirement now and making the Works Cited entry optional. I will now give you 10 points extra credit for a correctly done Works Cited page. If just one step is incorrect, you will not receive extra credit, but I won’t deduct any points from your grade for Paper 5 either. Make sure you use MLA format and not APA format.
The acceptable level of “Similarity” for Turnitin.com’s “Similarity Report” for this assignment will be 20% because you will be imbedding quotations from the article in the body paragraphs.
Please refer to information presented here along with the other resources and links here and on Blackboard as you plan and compose your essay. I have broken down the assignment into tasks. I recommend doing the essay step by step and then checking off each task upon completion.

Task 1: Find an article.
