  1. Map stakeholders and core positions in a controversy<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0(instructor-supplied texts)<\/li>\n
  2. Write a comparative rhetorical analysis of arguments in the controversy (instructor-supplied texts, all opinion based op-ed)<\/li>\n
  3. Take a position (advocate) based on research (student selected texts, popular and scholarly, through library research)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
