What’s the difference between Arguing and Persuading? Argument seeks to win over an audience by appealing to reason Persuasion, on the other hand, works by appealing to an audience’s emotions, feelings, prejudices, and beliefs »The Prentice Hall Reader Ch. 9

Argument notes An argument has multiple perspectives, but not necessarily pros & cons. You can be for or against, but you need to know what you benefit from it.

Essays Require Topic - the topic is a noun Cohesion – the connection between reading, writing, and thinking Unity – one central idea

Thesis When you want to argue or persuade, you start with a thesis – something you want to convince others of

The Five Part Thesis Qualifier: Topic Universal Idea Directions/Reasons Claim

Qualifier A Qualifier (subordinating conjunction) (Although, Since, Even though, while, etc…) A Qualifier “qualifies” or acknowledges the other side of the argument. Remember that the qualifier begins with a subordinating conjunction; it is a subordinate clause; it may acknowledge the other side of the argument, but it is subordinate to the independent clause which contains the main idea.

Topic The Topic is always a noun – something you can touch Examples: Cell phones in schools School uniforms Compulsory voting

Universal Idea The Universal Idea is always an abstract noun (you can’t touch this). Abstract nouns include things like: democracy, freedom, equality, love, hope, justice etc… The Universal Idea Creates UNITY

Claim The Claim is a verb (illustrates, demonstrates, reveals etc. NO “Be verbs allowed! It must be arguable

Direction Direction is the reason for where we are going in the essay. Examples Evidence You data will support the claim of the direction. Directions are the basis for your claim.

5 Part Thesis Cell Phones

Label the 5 parts of this thesis! Although cell phones have allowed us to be basically continuously connected to the world, they have greatly diminished the amount of respect we have for one another by invading our privacy, desensitizing our emotions, and causing disruptions in inappropriate settings thus making us an inconsiderate society.
