Exchange drafts with a classmate. Pose objections to each other’s argument. Practice using the language of counterargument: “Some readers might point out . . .” or “But isn’t it possible that . . . ?” What do you learn about the persuasiveness of your argument from hearing objections? Do you need to revise your thesis? Modify your position? Consider new evidence? Which counterarguments would you need to address to convince readers that you are a reasonable and informed writer? Write a brief revision plan below.
