As I created my argument paper, I had to begin by thinking about my thesis.  I had to think about what point I wanted to address and how I would back up my information.  I had to use my sources to as I wrote my argument.  I used each source as evidence.  This paper was created to target students.  The information in this paper is beneficial to high school students who are preparing for college.  My argument addresses all of the financial concerns of college and how their academic performance can be impacted.  I felt that this topic was easy to write about.  I am currently a college student who struggles with balancing my academic performace, while working and being a full time mother.  However, it was a challenge to back up my information with multiple sources.  I had to do more research for this paper and find additional sources that could be used as evidence.  The argument paper is relevant to my future as an educator because I am now familiar with how to find accurate resources.  The argument paper has also helped enhance my writing skills as I prepare for my PRAXIS exam.
