Presenting an Argument
The
 Presenting
an Argument tips help students evaluate arguments,
question claims, identify logical structures, and analyze the validity
of arguments. Students will build a logical and reasonable case,
construct logical and reasonable arguments, and then analyze those
arguments and evidence for validity.
Summary:
Students can get bogged down with details and need
help creating a coherent "package" to present their ideas.
These Tip Sheets help students visualize their thinking and learning
as they progress through the stages of building a logical and reasonable
case using logical and reasonable arguments. The steps for building
a logical and reasonable case are outlined in basic steps and questions.
The Tip Sheets then map students’ thinking patterns to help
them "see" their thinking and work through the steps of
building a logical and reasonable case and supporting their case
using logical and reasonable arguments. Putting thoughts together
using logic and reason can be particularly challenging when faced
with "messy" issues. The graphic organizer helps students
record and organize thoughts as they construct a framework for their
case. Using the checklists, students can test their arguments for
sound logic and reasoning based on their experiences with the content
and the construction of their case. These resources help students
evaluate arguments, question claims, identify logical structures,
and analyze the validity of arguments. Students will build a logical
and reasonable case, construct logical and reasonable arguments,
and then analyze those arguments and evidence for validity.
