Goal:
This assignment is your test designed to help you review the material that you learned so far, and use it practically within context. This will help you use your knowledge in a real argument to see how you can use it to make an argument and defend it.
You will demonstrate your knowledge of the class material.
Instructions:
You will need to:
Create your document in MLA format with all the requirements and submit it.
