Choose your own adventure…

On this exam, you are invited to make 4 arguments.

In each of the arguments, you will need to craft a solid, weighty case that your argument is important and impactful. To do so, you’ll want to use key ideas and concepts from our course material that illustrate your ideas.

For each argument, you may choose to complete the argument as an essay, a chart, an illustration, or a combination of these and other strategies. But be sure that each of your arguments is full of dynamic content that demonstrates your mastery of our course material.

Crafting your arguments

You’ll see below the framework for your four arguments. To craft each of your four arguments, you’ll need to select items from your inventory below. There’s only one catch … 

… once you’ve used an item from the inventory to build an argument,
you cannot use that same item again for any other argument.
