Classical Argument Paper
12 Tests of a Researchable Topic Worksheet
Can you turn your research topic into a Researchable Classical Argument Topic?
Phrase your issue as a question:
(Question here) (Example: How does the electoral college affect presidential elections?)
Write one or two sentences explaining how your topic can be handled in this question. (I'll provide examples in RED.)
1. How is this a topic one that has not been resolved or settled?

It should be monitored for sure to make sure only people that need it really have access to it.
3. If there is an aspect of controversy to this issue, how can you go past that and find an area to explore without immediately taking sides?

It may not be the child’s fault either but if the abortion is done in a timely
