INQUIRY 3: RESEARCHING ARGUMENTS ON PUBLIC CONTROVERSY
for this writing project, we were asked to research a current public controversy that is being covered in the media. For inquiry 3A, we used both scholarly and popular sources to understand various stances/ or arguments on the issue. In inquiry 3B, we further advanced our own argument with writing letters to certain audiences pertaining to our topic.

Upon completion of Inquiry three, we were then able to do the following:
- recognize language as a powerful tool in the public sphere
- analyze arguments
- engage with multiple perspectives on a single topic
- apply basic rhetorical principles, concepts, and terminology to analyze and evaluate a text
- apply basic rhetorical principles, concepts, and strategies to our own writing
