Communication between Transportation and Logistics

Description

Analysis Paper

Communication is used to inform, to persuade and to analyze. In this assignment, you will analyze both sides of an issue and then present a fair and objective analysis. You will practice looking at both sides of an issue by writing an argument, a counterargument, and rebuttal. Remember that you should not use the same topic you used for your Week 5 paper. This is a new topic that you identified in your week 2 forum. Your introduction paragraph should include a “hook” to grab the reader’s attention. The thesis statement is typically seen in the first paragraph. You should use credible sources and cite them according to the style of your discipline. This time, however, you will follow this initial structure with a counter-argument in which you introduce and provide support for a contradictory point of view. Following the counterargument, you will provide rebuttal, in which you explain why your initial point of view is more compelling than the counterargument. You should use credible sources and cite them according to the style of your discipline. The conclusion to this paper should restate the strongest points from your argument, mention the counter-argument, and then reinforce the conclusion while giving the reader something to think about moving forward. •PURPOSE: To analyze •AUDIENCE: Classmates, others interested in the field •LENGTH: 1,000 words (Times New Roman font).
