I really liked the homework assignments for this deadline. I'm finally able to organize all this information I collected through research, which is now making sense. Outlining my research topic and subtopics using 3d as a starter point, I was able to get a clearer idea where my research was heading. Then, as I worked through chapter 8's activities, such as clustering and further identifying my audience (which I narrowed again) I was able to see where my research was missing crucial information to make my arguments more credible and authoritative. I like how the Toulmin Method of outlining is designed to layout the pertinent information needed in a good research paper. Using this method also showed where I needed to do further research, such as on educational opportunities and how lowering the voting age would possibly help or hinder the voter turn-out in Arizona. I look forward to putting all this research material together in a cohesive form that supports my thesis.
I responded to the following two classmates and their Toulmin Method Outlines:
