Analyzing the Logic of an Article,
students are required to search three academic articles that they anticipate using in their argumentative
essay and respond to the logic questions below. Each entry should be 150 words minimum.
Students should include their topic of interests and topic focus. For example: Topic- Video Games and
Topic Focus- Crystal Dynamics’ Tomb Raider Series’ Lara Croft: Feminist Digital Icon or Patriarchal
Sexist Fantasy
Students should then explain the importance of the issue (50 words minimum). This information should
be headed as follows: Significance of Social Issue
Example: The feminist reception of Lara Croft as a game character has been ambivalent to say the
least. The question itself presupposes an either/or answer, thereby neatly expressing the polarities
around which most popular media and academic discussions of Lara Croft tend to revolve. It is a
question that is often reduced to trying to decide whether she is a positive role model for young
girls or just that perfect combination of eye and thumb candy for the boys. It is also increasingly
difficult to distinguish between Lara Croft the character in Tomb Raider and Lara Croft the
ubiquitous virtual commodity used to sell products as diverse as the hardware to play the game
itself.
The above information should appear first, and then, questions of logic of article.
Each set of questions should be titled and numbered accordingly.
