Test Description Instructions

There are 10 questions - Each question has a statement. Your task is to write two responses...one to agree with the statement and another to disagree with the statement. It's not "pick one or the other". You have to make a separate argument for each side. One paragraph why you would agree, and one paragraph why you would disagree. Please note: YOU HAVE TO MAKE A CASE FOR BOTH STANCES REGARDLESS OF YOUR PERSONAL OPINION. Also, you must use concepts from the course/textbook and related articles to backup your writing. Also include citations when appropriate. Please differentiate your two responses in separate paragraphs. One paragraph begins with "I agree..." and the other with "I disagree..."
