Persuasive short essay.Note: I have formatted this as a document upload to help practice with formatting, as this is a requirement of your final paper of this course.

Important: I will not give you a worse grade for choosing one model over the other. The key is evaluating these two options and writing a persuasive response about one of them. As long as your argumentation is sound either way and you meet the requirements of this rubric, you will earn a great grade!In a short paragraph (250-350 words), describe/define each model succinctly and clearly, including the breakouts defined.
