• 1.Consider the different components of an argument. Conduct a search on the Internet for a resource that elaborates on the components of an argument. What components are listed? How is each component used to convey the argument?
• 2.When writing a formal argument, you should avoid using non-academic sources, if possible. Why might it be detrimental to your writing to use non-academic sources? Please explain.
• 3. Which types of resources will help you to support your position in the argument paper? Explain. What methods (keyword searches, limiting your search, etc.) will you use to make your research most effective?
• 4.When we are making a claim, we must support that position with sufficient evidence. We can find that evidence in journals, articles, experiments, experiences, and more. What is the reason for having sufficient evidence? You want to sway the reader to see the topic from your point of view.
In order to do this, you must have convincing, reliable, and credible evidence. Why should your evidence be convincing, reliable, and credible? What might happen if your evidence does not come across as reliable or credible? Why would this matter to your audience?
