For your tenth journal, you'll need to find an article that is relevant to your paper topic -- something you actually plan on citing or referencing for your final argument paper. Please use one of the databases we accessed in Monday's library session to do this -- Opposing Viewpoints, ProQuest, etc. You may also find an article on Google so long as it is from a reputable and reliable source. Include a link to this article in your blog entry as well as the proper MLA citation that you will use on your Works Cited page. Then, in 500 words:
- Give a brief synopsis of the piece, telling us exactly what the article's thesis statement or general argument may be.
- Discuss how the argument is constructed -- what evidence is used to support the author's viewpoint?
- Is this a convincing argument? How so?
- How will you use information from this article to support your own thesis statement? What information will you cite? What quote might you use and why?
