Here is a screencast showing you around Opposing Viewpoints. Check it out: http://www.screencast.com/t/3i59wFMJ5Oi Choose a topic that can be argued. This is called a persuasive topic. (For example: An old house is much better than a new house because of 1, 2, 3 and 4... With this topic you have chosen a side to argue - an old house is better! ) Opposing Viewpoints has many persuasive topics to choose from. Choose something you would like to know more about - it will make this assignment more interesting! (Note: I do not accept any topics on religion or abortion.)
