The topic used for your Classical Argument essay is the same topic you will use for the Rogerian Argument essay. Once you are familiar with the goal of a Rogerian Argument and the Rogerian Argument outline, you will need to do additional research to prepare to write this essay, starting with modifying your annotated bibliography.
Re-examine your existing annotated bibliography and decide where you need to do more research to fill in the gaps of your knowledge of the issue on the state/national level, and to have a balance of evidence for supporting both sides of the issue as well as your proposed compromise.
Use the OCCC library databases to gather as many additional sources as you will need, keeping in mind that this essay requires a minimum of 4 sources and that you can continue to use any of your existing sources that remain useful for this essay. Within the library’s website, the “Gale: Opposing Viewpoints” database is a good place to start for Rogerian argument research materials. Note that its purpose is to provide multiple viewpoints on each topic, which is the goal of your research.
Add your new sources to the bibliography, completing the citations and annotations in the same way you did when you first compiled your bibliography in Unit 1.
