· Who is my audience and which points will they be interested in?

 

 

 

· What kind of tone am I assuming for my argument?

 

 

 

· Does my tone match the audience? (If not, consider changing your tone.)

 

 

 

· Am I engaging in a fallacy or illogical stance? (Make sure you make sense or no one

 

 

 

will believe you!)

 

 

 

· Would someone agree or disagree with me given my points? (Argue with yourself

 

 

 

as to find the strengths and weaknesses of your stance.)

 

 

 

· Am I making a moral or cultural argument? (If so, you may need to reconsider a

 

 

 

stance able to utilize scholarly literature.)
