If you have an assignment to prepare a persuasive or argumentative essay or speech:

2) Select at least one resource listed under "Reference" to get factual information.
3) Select at least one resource listed under "Viewpoints" to get opinions.
4) Select "Statistics" or "Images" to build the argument.
5) Use citations at the bottom of each article to create a "Works Cited" page for your essay.
