[EzineArticles] Discussion Article Template

Discussion Article Template Use Your Expertise to Launch a Discussion One of the best ways to show your own mastery of a topic in your niche is by writing a discussion-based article on that topic. A discussion-based article stands out because it covers multiple angles of a topic or multiple perspectives, which are known as counterpoints. In other writing styles, counterpoints are only mentioned as a part of the conclusion and can appear unimportant. Articles that are discussion-based, on the other hand, thrive on the evolution of a back-and-forth conversation with more than one perspective. The Discussion Article Template is perfect for authors who understand all of the perspectives and can build a cohesive discussion. So what do you want to talk about today? Parts of a Discussion-Based Article 1. Introduction - Lay out the topic and context of the discussion. Include a brief summary of each side of the discussion to be explained further in the body of the article. 2. Body Part #1 - Give an in-depth explanation of one side of the discussion. Provide evidence by including your own unique insights, analysis, and commentary on the discussion topic. 3. Body Part #2 - Give the article a new dimension by discussing another angle of it. This, in essence, is a counterpoint to the original discussion. You can either lay out each part of the discussion separately or use as point/counterpoint style. 4. Conclusion - Evaluate each side of the discussion and decide whether there is a "winner" and a "loser." If there is, name them. If not, explain why not. Use this template today to add a new dimension to your article writing and provide engaging counterpoints for your audience. Like our article templates?

EzineArticles Member Endorsement "I love the templates" I find I love the templates and have a file with copies of all of them. Sometimes I go through them and put Post-it notes on individual templates with ideas/titles/themes - ready for possible development into an article ... or sometimes not. But that's OK, because it often stirs a memory or fits somehow with an opinion I hold, or an idea that's still deep within my 'think tank.'
