Topic Proposal and Summary

Your assignment this week asks you to choose your Commentary topic, issue, and angle, and to begin understanding how your own position fits into the larger conversation. To accomplish this overall goal, you’ll need to begin by reviewing viable topics, listening to the conversations surrounding them, and ultimately determining which topic is most fitting for the assignment needs. You’ll then summarize the main ideas within your topic, including the perspectives of others within the conversation. To complete this week’s assignment, please find the Week 5 Topic Proposal and Summary in Doc Sharing. Download it for use in recording your responses in paragraph format.
