Introduction
The best argumentative essay titles reveal the nature of the argument and suggest the position that you will be taking as the author of the argument. Since every argument has at least two sides to it, your essay title should point out these two sides. Then it should identify the side you think makes the most sense, i.e., the correct position to take. One of the easiest ways to do this is to use the “vs.” approach and follow that up with a colon and the position you’re taking. Another way is to ask a question and follow it up with the answer. A third way to write a good argumentative essay title is to call out the opposition and give the reason it is wrong. See these examples for an idea of how to write great argumentative essay titles.
