In the introduction, give a general idea of the issue, question, or ideas you are going to write about. It's especially good if you can get in a "hook" or attention grabber to capture people's interest. For example, "By the year 2060, ninety percent of the country of Bangladesh may be underwater."\nIn the conclusion, summarize your point of view and bring closure to the essay.  \nHere's a website with hints on essay writing.\nhttp://members.tripod.com/~lklivingston/essay/

you should write about mob mentality, how people do things they know are wrong or that they disagree with just because everyone else does it.  or something about following tradition despite moral or religious objection.

We're doing persuasive speeches this week in my speech class.\n\nA word of advice from my teacher, she likes us to think "outside the box" so to speak. Aka: stay away from the really common subjects. Abortion, gay rights, war in Iraq. Most people have their minds make up completely about them, so it's a hard call.\n\nI've seen people in my class do speeches on why music majors shouldn't have to take biology, why gender selection is bad, why everyone should take a karate or self defense class, the possibilities are pretty much endless. I'm doing mine on why I think my dog's breed is the best dog breed. I was also juggling with why procrastination is bad but I need a visual aid so I can't pull that off. Just think outside the box. You can really make any subject work just as long as you take a side on it. \n\nGood luck to you! My professor says persuasion speeches are the most difficult.

How about writing about the problem of choosing a topic for your composition?  You could discuss how you used this site to help develop a topic and other ways you brainstormed topics...depending on the sense of humor of your teacher, and the specifics of the assignment, might make for a perfectly creative composition.\n\nGood luck.

First of all you need to pick a good topic, one that can be won.   Make sure it is a topic on which it is easy to take a clear stand.   Good ones are usually those on which people have very definite opinions.  Gun control, abortion, capital punishment, right to die, etc. are good topics for argumentative essays - they have emotion built in.\n\nIn your essay you have to do more than state your opinion - you have to support your argument with facts and evidence and research and statistics.  You need to be able to give examples to back up your stand.  An argumentative essay is rather like a debate - you want to persuade others to agree with you.\n\nThese sites should help you.  Best of luck with it.

Please give us a little more detail. For example, what government are you talking about? What is your speech trying to prove? What are the criteria? As a general guideline, if you are writing this to persuade, then make sure you have some persuasive elements in you speech. Such as appeals (rational, emotive etc).
