Making a proposal: How should creativity be incorporated into learning at Gloucester High School?

Make a proposal. How should creativity be incorporated into student learning at Gloucester High School?

The proposal should be one to two pages, double-spaced, 12-point font.

You may use any supporting sources as long as they are cited (both in the text and in a works cited page). You have "Creativity Crisis," the article you found, and the articles you talked about with peers.

Think about using the argument and rhetoric strategies we have learned: narrative, counterargument, rebuttal, concession, logos, pathos, ethos, etc.

Also, think deeply about your audience. Who should hear your proposal? I had assumed school administrators and the school committee, but a few of you thought that you would first have to convince colleges to make creativity more of a factor in admissions before the high school would consider incorporating more cultivation of creativity into its courses offerings. So I'm leaving the issue of audience open for you to decide. By knowing the audience you will be able to anticipate the audiences concerns and employ an appropriate, effective, and engaging writing style.

All audiences will be distracted from your argument by word use errors, grammatical errors, etc. Read your piece aloud to yourself and edit carefully before class time on Tuesday.  

Due Tuesday (3/10) by class time.
