    In this paper, I will explore the topic of gaming in education.

    1. Gaming in education is an important issue.

    2. Most people agree that games in education is a controversial issue, and this essay will explore
    that issue, ultimately, working to convince you of the value of gaming in education.

    Most states have animal rights laws that are too lenient. 

    1. This paper will explore animal rights laws in all fifty states and share
    which states have the best laws.

    2. This essay will explore the large amount of current animal abuse cases in
    the media and argue for better laws to protect animals.

    3. Animal abuse laws in most states are so lenient that offenders face
    almost no punishment, so stronger, stricter laws are necessary to protect
    animals.

    • Our country needs to support organic farmers better.

    1. The number of small farmers is on the rise in some states, but, nationally, most
    farming is done by factory farms, most of which are not organic farms.

    2. In order to provide consumer with healthier food options, our government


    needs to provide the same kind of subsidies to small, organic farmers that it
    offers to large, factory farms.

    3. This essay will explore some of the many options available to potential farmers
    who are interested in organic farming, which provides people in our country
    with healthier food options.
    Although providing more educational options seems like a good idea, this essay will argue
    that more options, such as having more charter schools, is not always a good thing. 

    1. Although providing more educational options seems like a good idea in theory, the
    reality is that charter schools and other alternative school options have not proven
    beneficial as a whole and may, in fact, be harming the public school system. 

    2. This essay proposes that educational reform is needed but more school options may
    not be the solution.

    3. It is a simple fact that educational reform is necessary. Research shows charter schools
    are not the answer.
