Third Blog Post Assignment

Readers: When composing all of this research to eventually compile an essay so far I think I will be writing to the government and people of the U.S. to restate that there are good uses for stem cell research and not everything is terrible. People have such a negative outlook on it so they wont give it a chance to view all sides.

Timeliness: My topic could potentially be very timely because of the upcoming presidential election. Depending on who claims presidentcy could set the stage for people who are for or against stem cell research. I could somehow incorporate this into my papers to show that stem cell research is an important topic that could potentially effect us as a whole.

Investment: I am super invested in this topic because my boyfriend is a type 1 diabetic and stem cell research could really help him in the long run. Seeing how his diabetes affects him really makes everything "hit home" and makes me such a big advocator for stem cell research. My reasoning behind it is, if it can help a bunch of people and cure diseases then it is so worth a shot. I think that many teachers and college professors would care because diabetes and other diseases effect so many people. Everybody knows at least one person that has been effected or will eventually be effected by thoes diseases that stem cell research could cure.

(2) Yes, I am starting to see different sides emerge for the essays. One side is pro stem cell research and against stem cell research then my opinion on the whole entire subject.

(3) So far I have learned that the research could cure other things besides diabetes. Also, I read where conducting controversial research has helped save peoples lives and thats how the polio vaccine was discovered.

(4) I commented on Ekemini's blog!
