Persuasive Process Analysis

Write a 6-7 page persuasive process analysis that examines a problem in education (i.e. UF, American schools, your high school etc.) and then proposes a solution to that problem. The essay should concentrate on using process analysis and/or cause and effect to explain why your problem is a problem and/or your solution is a solution. Thus you should be using words that indicate these sort of relationships -- for process analysis: then, next, finally, consequently, subsequently, after, following; for cause and effect: because, due to, as a result of. Also, be aware that you must "nod" to your opposition throughout your argument without weakening your own arguments.
