- Grasp a variety of argumentative methods to structure and organise their thoughts (Namely, the Toulmin Method, Classical Method, and Rogerian Method).
- Make use of primary and secondary sources (critical texts about social theory, historical events, politics, philosophy, and literature) as evidence to support their arguments in essay writing.
- Engage in dialogue with the thoughts and ideas of other thinkers to develop effective arguments.
- Confidently and maturely articulate their personal point of view about topics related to current events, social issues, and political thought.
- Understand how essays are generally evaluated in competitive contexts, including essay prizes, college admissions examinations, and more.
- Be exposed to the type of analytical and argumentative writing they may be expected to do in college and university classes.
