-
Students will need to analyze arguments as a whole--the claim, reasons that support that claim, evidence that proves those reasons, assumptions made within the reasons or evidence, and personal perspective (viewpoint)--in order to judge how the writer arrived at his/her conclusion on an issue.
-
Students should also examine the quality of evidence used in each argument and evaluate how well it supports the author’s claims.
-
The possibility of bias should be examined in this analysis.
-
Bias is a prejudice in favor of or against one thing, person, or group compared with another that is often developed from a person’s experience or schema.
-
Thus, a speaker’s viewpoint can be established because of a bias.
-
By analyzing the rhetoric used in an argument, students should be able to determine the overall quality of an argument.
-
A rhetorical triangle may be a helpful medium, or graphic organizer, for this analysis and comparison. Then, evidence can be added onto this organizer by distinguishing what kind of appeal the evidence is making (ethos, pathos, logos).
-

Due to recursive nature of the standards, it is essential that teachers are aware of how all objectives within and between strands work together for optimal instruction.
