Persuasive Paper Reminders

Hey Folks:
When looking at your paper, ask yourself these questions:
1. Have I used information from at least two credible sources?
2. Have I developed each of the rhetorical methods--pathos, ethos, logos?
3. Have I clearly used warrants to connect the evidence to the claims?
4. Have I made a concession? Is the concession I list the "best" argument against my proposal? Have I refuted this concession?

Do these things, and you will have a stronger paper!
