Analysis over the game spent

Goal:
Ultimately, you should be able to talk about the mechanics of creating an argument and be able to point to specific examples. Additionally, you should be able to discuss how your positionality impacts why you find these arguments persuasive (or not).
Mode:
Written analysis (around 1,000 words)
*Can include pictures, but they need to be cited and have a purpose in your paper.
Why are we doing this?
First of all: there are a couple of different reasons why it is important to understand how to do this analysis:
This process will help you understand how to craft your own arguments later in our course (and later in your life).
It will help you develop your understanding of your own positionality and how it impacts your experience with arguments.
Additionally, think of this as a test run or scavenger hunt to find the mechanics of the argument. We are not focusing on creating our own arguments here, but instead, we are highlighting the actual mechanics. So, use this assignment to learn how the different elements work and how/why they are effective. You will take this knowledge and use it to understand viewpoints and context in Project 2 and to create your own arguments in Project 3.
