Material:
So far we’ve been talking about making arguments, and this essay is a simple argumentative essay. However, I think you’ll find the question a little more complicated than it seems. If the basic question is this, “What does it mean to be educated,” you are going to have to argue WHY you define “being educated” in the way that you do. Further, you will use readings and a video in order to provide support for your definition.

Keep in mind that an argument requires support and evidence. And that is where you come in!
