This 2 page essay needs to include a thesis or claim explaining your proposed paper topic and several paragraphs that are unified with that thesis or claim. This is not a free write. Carefully plan this brief essay and consider organizing it as an illustrative or causal analysis paper. The guided questions relating to the classic argumentation method in Chapter 6 will be good indicators as to what you must know to successfully complete a longer argument. Research and evidence use may be included; however, these factors are not required for an exploratory essay to receive full credit.
