(WA #3 instructions can be found in the Content area of the classroom under Sample Papers and Writing Assignment Instructions for WRTG 394.)Discussion 2This discussion will enable you to plan for the third writing assignment. For this discussion, you will propose some problem you wish to solve, either in the workplace or your community, a target audience—specifically the decision-maker that you will eventually write to—and some primary research you would like to do. Be sure to read the complete directions for more details. Provide feedback for at least one classmate's answers. NOTE: This is not your third writing assignment. This is a discussion topicthat is designed to help prepare you for the third writing assignment.To complete your assignment, you will access the Assignments area and review the assignment directions. Then you will complete and submit your draft of the assignment in your assignment folder.Your third assignment in WRTG 394 involves writing a memo requesting permission to conduct research on the topic for your research report. You should focus on the following as you prepare your memo:Be specific - your assignment directions (located in the assignment area of the classroom) give you good examples of ways in which you can make sure that you are proposing a solution to a specific problem. You must answer the question, "How will MY workplace or community (this should be narrowly defined as your neighborhood, apartment community, base housing community, etc.) be made better by the solution(s) I recommend?"Identify a specific decision maker (or makers if, for example, you are proposing a solution to a workplace issue in your department that might require action by the HR director as well as your dept. head). Examples of such persons might be your apartment community manager, the director of base housing where you are stationed, your department head in your workplace, or your commander for your military unit.Offer some examples of the secondary research you have already done on this topic. (This should be research that you completed for WA #2, the synthesis literature review.AssignmentFor this assignment, you will compose an 800-1100 word memo—a specific kind of business writing. You will address your memo to someone whom you would have to persuade to take action on the problem you want to solve.

These are two different posts, each needs to be at least 250 wordsWeek 2 Discussion Prompts#1 Examples of Three Argument formsIn the required reading this week we learned about the following argument forms: Deductive arguments, statistical syllogisms, arguments from analogy, appeals to authority, and inductive generalizations.Choose three of the five argument forms and create an example of each. Your arguments do not have to be great arguments (you will analyze their quality below), but they should clearly be instances of the argument types you chose in question (make sure to indicate what argument type each one is).After each argument, provide a brief analysis of its quality. If it is deductive, is it valid? Is it sound? If it is inductive, is it strong? Is it cogent? (Be sure to read the definitions from the text.) What might be done to improve the argument? What can people do to better understand and apply this type of argument in general? #2 Appeals to authorityOne of the most common and important argument form is the appeal to authority. For this discussion, you will discuss this argument form, as well as how to use it to improve your reasoning and your life.In your initial post:oGive three examples of appeals to authority (they can be from real source or experiences, or you can make them up). One should be very strong, one very weak, and one in the middle. Evaluate the quality of each.oProvide an example of a time in which you or someone you know was fooled by trusting a source that turned out to be unreliable.oProvide another paragraph or two in which you discuss appeals to authority in general, by addressing some of these types of questions: How do we know which sources are reliable and trustworthy? Do you find that there are some types of sources of which people are too trusting? How might we learn to display the proper amount of skepticism and trust in relation to sources? Are people too trusting of media sources, and is there a way to overcome these tendencies? How can we make sure those are the best sources and not be deceived by deceptive ones?

In your 1500 words essay, identify and define what is meant by creativity, innovation and design thinking,whether you agree, do not agree or partially agree with the statement and why you agree/disagree/partially disagree using relevant theory. You must also use real-world corporate examples (e.g., examples from companies like Google, Tesla etc) to justify your stance.Guidelines for writing the argumentative academic essay In writing your argumentative academic essay, you may want to follow the following guidelines: 1. Read the given statement carefully and understand what it means. 2. Use course content learned in class as well as external research done using scholarly work to further investigate the given statement. Remember to read critically on this topic so that you are able to critically evaluate what others have said about the topic and come to your own conclusions on the topic. 3. Based on the research you have carried out, decide your 'stance' relating to this statement. Your stance means whether you agree with it, disagree with it or partially agree with it (you may agree with some aspects of the statement but disagree with other aspects). It's very important that the argumentative academic essay clearly expresses the writer's stance. 4. Write your essay to include the arguments you want to set forth and use 3 - 5 scholarly work and practical examples (at least 2) to support your arguments. Structure of the argumentative academic essay: Your argumentative academic essay must have the following components: 1. Introduction: must include (a) the purpose of writing your essay (e.g., The purpose of writing this essay is to critically evaluate and put forth arguments on whether successful creativity, innovation and design thinking activities are only dependant on the work of individual employees) (b) the stance taken by you (e.g., I agree with the given statement) (c) the scope of the essay - what theories will be used in your essay, what real-world examples will be given in your essay (d) the structure of the essay - what will you explain in body paragraph 1, what will you explain in body paragraph 2 etc. 2. Body paragraphs: Your argumentative academic essay can include 2-3 body paragraphs. You can give each paragraph a sub-heading if you wish. In the body paragraphs, you must provide scholarly definitions of what is creativity, innovation and design is, what arguments you present to support the stance you have taken, and corporate examples as well. Remember that the stance you have written in the Introduction and the stance you take in the body paragraphs must be the same. You must also include in-text references of all scholarly work (i.e., journals, academic textbooks, e-books etc) and of non-scholarly work (i.e., company websites, newspaper articles, company videos etc) used. Non-scholarly work has to be cited when real-world corporate examples are used to support your arguments. 3. Conclusion: Provide a brief summary of your essay 4. References: List all scholarly and non-scholarly work you have used in the essay in the reference list. The reference list is not included in the word count. References should be in alphabetical order and in APA 6th ed style.
