PL S somebody help, and dont answrr if u dk the answer, depending on who u are u may even have fun doing it gl :)) Task:

For this final project, you will share, discuss and propose solutions for an issue you are passionate about. Include your reference list with your final submission. Using all the steps of the writing process and persuasive techniques, write a newspaper editorial on a topic that you care about.

The Topic:

How can writing change people’s worldview? How can it influence public opinion? How can it lead to meaningful action? Persuasive writing is more than just an academic exercise — it is very much alive in the real world.

Step One: Find a topic that you care about.

Finding the right topic is essential. You should pick something that a) you genuinely care about; b) other people would want to be informed about; c) an argument can be made about it d) and evidence can be found to support your claim.

Consider these questions:

What would you like to change if you could? What problems or policies do you think should be addressed — whether something global, like climate change, or something closer to home, like a later start time for your high school classes? Make as long a list as you can.
What issues, topics and fields are you passionate about? Make a list. Your list might include fields as broad as “music” or as specific as “the early days of hip-hop.” What questions or controversies in these fields do experts or fans often argue? Where do you stand?
What do you do outside of school? What are some things you’re an expert on? What aspects of those hobbies or interests do you find yourself having to explain to others? Why?
What issues or ideas do you often find yourself discussing or arguing about with friends, your family or online?
What issues or controversies have you followed recently in current events? What are your opinions about them? What might you need more information about?

All students will be required to:

Use the skills that you have developed in this course

Research the given topic so that you become an expert on it

Keep an MLA-style works cited list that will be turned in with your final product

Develop an persuasive product that informs its reader of the topic.

Target Audience:

You will be creating your project for the future generation. (Those born roughly around 2010). This generation has been told that the world is on fire; create a fire within them to do better, expect better and be better. Consider how you would communicate your passion through a lens that would be enigmatic and relevant to this younger generation.

A few points to consider as you prepare your Passion Project:

Be clear when providing background information. Assume that they know nothing about your topic and help to show them why this topic is of the utmost importance and worth the focus.
Use formal vocabulary and structure so that your communication leads these children to fight for your cause!
