Write an exploratory essay in which you join the academic conversation about your research topic with three credible sources that you are considering/evaluating for your researched argument project. Be sure to consider the following questions:
What issue, problems, or controversies do your sources address?
What else do your sources have in common? Any ideas? Facts? Examples? Statistics? Are any people or works cited in more than one source?
What significant differences do you find among sources? Different stances? Positions? Purposes? Kinds of evidence? Conclusions?
Do any of your sources cite or refer to one another? Does one source provide details, examples, or explanations that build on something said in another? Does any source respond specifically to something said in another?
