D#6, HW#6 - Summarizing

Before:
Junior Scholastic. Lower the voting age? (Debate) (National Youth Rights Association). (2006, October 2). Retrieved July 10, 2007 from InfoTrac OneFile database.

Michael Cappetta a 16 year old junior at Chagrin Falls High School in Ohio stated “Opening up the voting pool to a younger generation may inspire our generation to vote more often, and take part in democracy.” This article displays a ‘teen’ perspective on lowering the voting age. Also includes another teen who disagrees. (?????) This would definitely be a step in the right direction for ensuring not only youths are voting, but also parents become more involved by assisting teenagers with being informed properly.

After:
Lower the Voting Age?. (2006, October 2). Junior Scholastic, Retrieved July 10, 2007, from MasterFILE Premier database.

Michael Cappetta a 16 year old junior at Chagrin Falls High School in Ohio stated “Opening up the voting pool to a younger generation may inspire our generation to vote more often, and take part in democracy.” This article displays ‘teenagers’ perspectives for and against lowering the voting age. The author is not clearly listed, though this could be due to the fact it was written for teenagers’. Also, after reviewing the article again via the database, I noticed two links I could use that would be helpful. One link would include the citation in the second link that would email the article where I wanted to send it. I chose to have it sent to my email for easier reference.
