Please note: Read the directions for the Rogerian Argument essay BEFORE completing this outline.
Choose a topic on which you wish to develop a middle ground for compromise or discussion. Try to choose a topic on which you have some ownership, something you have experienced and know enough about to write a Rogerian essay. In any case, choose a topic that you care about, so you will care about writing the essay, and the reader will be able to care about grading it.
Also, the Rogerian argument and the research paper are two entirely different arguments that you will be writing this semester. The Rogerian argument presents two sides of an issue and the common ground or compromise between the two sides. You will not take a stand on the issue.
Please review the lecture notes on Rogerian argument before completing this assignment.
For this assignment you will complete a topic outline (phrases that indicate the main points and supporting points to be used in the research paper). Use Roman numerals for the main point and capital letters for the supporting points. A working thesis needs to be included in the outline.
Rogerian outline
I. Introduction
A. A brief background of the topic
B. Explore the common ground (briefly)
C. state the issue question and set a neutral tone
II. Explain key supporting points on the issue
III. Explain key supporting points for the alternate side of the issue
IV. Explain a balanced view of the issue by reviewing valid points from the two sides (common ground)
V. Conclusion
A. Describe a balanced and concise summary of the main points that represent the sides of the issue
B. Present a middle ground position/common ground
C. Reprise the middle ground position and present a position that will benefit both sides.
As you are presenting a Rogerian argument you will need to have clear thesis placed in the conclusion. Remember, as this is a Rogerian argument, the thesis should not take a stand on the issue. You will need to present both sides of the issue and a section that shows how the two sides do have some common ground. The paper also will need to have a conclusion that wraps everything up for the reader and presents the common ground. Remember, for the actual paper you will need to have more than five paragraphs in the paper.

Example of Topic Outline Format
Several aspects must be considered in writing a topic outline.
Recall that all headings and subheadings must be words or phrases, not sentences.
Also, the wording within each division must be parallel.
Finally, as in any outline, remember that a division or subdivision cannot be divided into one part; therefore, if there is an “A” there must be a “B,” and if there is a “1” there must be a “2.”
I. Family Problems
A. Custodial: Non-custodial Conflicts
B. Extended Family
C. Adolescent’s Age
II. Economic Problems
A. Child Support

Is he right about the “funnel” esp re his suggestions on Facebook and Youtube et al as targeted not mass channels/media?
What’s he missing re where people are and how to reach them with brand value?
What might be the implications for your project brand this semester?.

Write an essay of at least 400 words that explains the basic functions and sources of minerals and water in the body. Include what you learned about minerals, water, and dehydration from the article. Provide responses to the following:
Include references with citations in APA format.
Normally you gather requirements through interviews and reviews with stakeholders. From these interviews and reviews you gain an understanding of what the software needs to do. Then you clearly, unambiguously document it in a requirements format. It is a little hard in a classroom setting to provide stakeholders. So in this exercise you will be provided a finished software product. You can learn how the software works. This will allow you to gain an understanding of what the software does. From this you will document the requirements using Use Case Diagrams and Textural Use Cases.
The purpose of this exercise is to get you accustomed to the various Use Case Diagrams and techniques. You may pick any software that you like, as long as you can show your excellence and command using features of that software. You don′t have to document all the features of that software, but you must have one type of Use Case Diagram describing the feature.
Due to time limits you will not be able to create a full requirement document for the software. Doing so would take years to complete. Pick a subset of features; hopefully you can pick a subset that has something in common. Your requirement document must have at least 8 Textual Use Cases and a Use Case diagram that includes the Use Cases.
We suggest picking feature-rich software that is also readily available to others. Examples include MS Word, MS Excel, Open Office, Google Web Search, Google Maps, GMail, Uber, Facebook, GnuCash, or a web browser. Of course, you may pick something not on this list. In order to best prepare you for what′s coming, I suggest that you use a product with more than one user involved (underlined in the list).
You may use screenshots of the software to help me understand the feature you are describing.
There is a template attached that you may wish to use for this exercise.
Rubric: As discussed in the Syllabus & Additions
1) You need 8 use cases. The first one should be logging in or initializing. At least one of them should involve 2 users or other entities. I don′t care what the other 6 are.
2) There is no set page count or size of any one use case. Document it completely, and then stop. Remember that if there are alternate flows, such as credit card declined, you have to show those too.
