Go to the discussion board and write a brief response (300 words minimum) summarizing the multiple viewpoints associated with your topic (both for and against/pro and con). At the end of your response, present your own opinion on the topic in the form of your thesis statement or arguable claim. Refer to the previous lesson on constructing an arguable thesis to help you.As with all discussion boards, your initial response must be at least 300 words.
Don’t forget to include at least two vocabulary words from this unit within your responses, and underline the vocabulary words that you use so that I can easily find them.
