For your Term Paper, you must choose a contemporary issue and two professionally written articles on opposing sides of the issue and them perform close analyses.  These close analyses are intended to help you clarify the chosen commentaries for this term paper. I I will grade these analyses primarily on the detail and completeness of the analysis as explained in Chapter Four of your textbook.  You must provide a copy of the commentaries that you have labeled the language elements as done in Chapter 4.  Use the abbreviations as used in the textbook.

Thus this assignment requires the following:

1. In no more than one page, double-spaced, summarize the first chosen article.

2. In no more than one page, double-spaced, summarize the second article for your paper.

3. In no more than one page, double-spaced, explain as succinctly and completely as possible the contemporary issue for this paper.

4. A copy of your first article within which you will perform the labeling.

5. A copy of your second article within which you will perform the labeling.

Thus you will submit via Canvas 5 documents containing your close analyses and explanation by the scheduled due date (see syllabus).

As with all written assignments, Veracite will automatically check for originality of work.
