Make sure you establish an argumentative claim, address potential counter arguments, and support your claim from the sources you have read. Organize your article logically, and elaborate on your ideas. Develop your ideas clearly and use your own words except when quoting directly from the sources. Be sure to identify the sources by title or number when using details or facts directly from the sources.
