You’ve been assigned a proposal essay.
Keep in mind that every essay ‘writing style’ has specific aspects of securing a properly written argument in that specific style.
In academic writing, you will be learning to argue your position on an issue.
Depending on what style of argument, you may be writing a persuasive proposal (Proposal Argument), an ethical argument for quality standards (Ethical Argument) or proving a causal relationship between two things (Cause/Effect Argument).

In this handout, you will learn some basic points to arguing in a proposal essay. A proposal essay assignment requires you to come up with a proposal for fixing a current issue in society. For ENGL101, your proposal argument will be focused on alleviating the opioid crisis in America.
This means that you need to establish a plan to propose in the paper to argue that specific steps will fix the problem. You learn about the issue and the steps that have already been taken in America (through the readings posted in the weekly assignments folder), and then you come up with your own proposal to determine how to change, modify, or introduce new tactics to crush the crisis.
