Homework
1. Pick a social problem that you would like to correct
2. Answer the questions on the brainstorm sheet, write down your solution, and develop an outline for your essay.

* Tip: In order to write this essay you should consider the ridiculous solution, but also real solutions that will come in handy in the counter argument.

The example below may help guide you, but I expect for your outline to be more detailed and tailored to your specific topic.

Example:
I. Introduce the problem
II. Explain one detail/aspect of the problem
III. Explain second aspect
IV. Give your "solution"
V. Counter argument
VI. Conclusion


Additional help or inspiration

- Cartoons may help you think of a "solution" depending on the problem you choose.
Consider some of the following:
racism
global warming
politics
