Stuart Greene’s article serves to define the idea of a research argument and what it takes to write one. He describes an argument as a conversation, in which we must take a stand point and provide information to support our point of view. In choosing an argument it is important to raise a question that can be supported as well as disputed. Greene states that in order to effectively engage in a research argument, you must identify the issue, identify the context of the situation that the issue is in, and you must frame you question in which you are writing. To describe this process Greene includes 2 different essays that demonstrate these three characteristics.
