Need assistance with the following Ethical Debate written piece (Pro-Life).
Ethical Issues Debate Project Overview
Project specifics:
Your instructor will assign you a topic and a viewpoint position (Abortion- Against). You may not be personally for or against the topic and stance you are given. However, it is your job to convince your peers of the issue and stance using your presentation with supporting evidence.
Create a “script” (a convincing argument against abortion) that will be used for a video debate. (Just the written piece is needed).
The argument should be 4-5 minutes long and address the topic and viewpoint you were assigned.
You may not be personally in support or opposition of the topic, however it is your job to convince your peers of your position. Include evidence and examples that supports the viewpoint
Include an introduction to the issue, your stance, the rationale for the stance, the ethical principals involved, theories and evidence supporting your position, and your proposed resolution. Review the rubric in this forum for complete grading criteria.
Get creative! Be succinct but convincing.
STRONG, ORIGINAL AND COMPELLING ARGUMENTS ARE A MUST!
Abortion
Opposing statement – Having an abortion is killing an unborn child and should not be allowed.
RUBRIC:
Presentation is well-organized and approximately 4-5 minutes in length. Viewpoint is clear and reasonably paced and reflects an atmosphere of respect
Supporting argument is well developed either for or against the issue. Factors supporting the stance are well identified. Ethical principles and theories involved with the ethical issue are clearly identified and explained and in alignment with the viewpoint
Rebuttal is complete and includes key points including stakeholders, essential factors, and important facts supporting the resolution. The rebuttal reflected an atmosphere of mutual respect. Policy drivers and ethical principles involved are clearly identified and explained in support or opposition of the resolution
I will be using this written material and applying it to a PowrPoint audio/video presentation where I will be verbally presenting the viewpoint (Against abortion), Therefore, I would like the piece to be written in form of script so that I may be able to read it off as a verbal deliberation (debate style). Small paragraphs/sentences and bullet points are preferable.
THANK YOU DR. F!
