As long as you read the textbook, read the online material, and complete the activities, you will not encounter much difficulty.
Prompt: The Internet is home to worldwide content, which can be informational and sometimes controversial. Should the Internet be censored by the government? Develop a persuasive speech that argues for or against having the government censor the Internet. You will construct a traditional, five-paragraph speech (introductory paragraph, 3 body paragraphs, concluding paragraph) that answers this prompt. The total length of pages should not exceed 3 typed pages.
1.First step in developing a speech is prewriting. Decide whether you agree or disagree to have the government censor the Internet.
2.Next, make a list of as many reasons why you agree or disagree to have the government censor the Internet.
3.Then try to see if any of those reasons can be grouped together. Using the numbers (1), (2), and (3), number those reasons according to where they should appear in the body paragraphs.
