Write an essay following the Rogerian model of argumentation that examines divergent sides of a controversial issue and attempts to strike a compromise between different points of view. The steps for creating a Rogerian argument will be found at the bottom of this module, but here are two points to consider:
– A Rogerian argument takes a stance for or against a controversial issue. (Remember a controversy is an issue that generates at least two opinions. During this unit, youll journal many controversial issues you might use for this essay.)
– After making your stance clear, and after paying respect to at least one point from your opponents point of view, a Rogerian argument always strikes the common ground in an attempt to reach some kind of agreement between yourself and your opponent.
