Persuasive Position (Academic Argument) Essay Paper Three ENGL 1010
What is the most challenging structural and/or motivational barrier preventing college and university students from successfully completing their courses/degrees/certificates? In other words, when a PSCC student drops out mid-semester or does not return from one semester to the next, what do you believe (and what can you successfully argue) is the leading reason for that student not continuing in his/her studies?
NOTE: Your choice of challenging barrier/reason for non-completion does not have to be academic in nature, but you do need to decide on ONE (the most challenging).
Compose a four full-page persuasive position essay on the prompt using specific, cited reference to at least three academic sources; ONE OF THE THREE(but no more than two) should be chosen from the variety of sources I have made available for you in Brightspace for this Paper Three assignment. Your essay should also exhibit a combination of rhetorical strategies to convince your readers to reevaluate and reconsider their position on the topic.
Your essay should provide some contextual background information on community college success rates in 2020-2022. Note: COVID- student decisions. You are welcome to include unexpected events, such as natural disasters and pandemics, as part of your discussion, but do not let current events take over your entire argument.
Remember you are trying to convince your readers what is the LEADING reason for why students do not RETURN to or COMPLETE their schooling, so while COVID-19 could be a workable answer in the short-term, I should warn you upfront that Paper Four will ask you how PSCC can help address the student issue/answer you chose in Paper Three. Thus, COVID-19 should not be your sole answer.
Required Use of Sources
Without background information, your argument will lack credibility. You need to demonstrate that you understand the scope of the issue before you can credibly argue a position about that issue. In other words, your introduction or conclusion should discuss several structural and/or motivational barriers that stand in the way of successful completion for the average community college student, but your thesis and argument should focus on proving that one of these barriers is more challenging than all of the others.
