2. Evidence/Reasoning/Claim
All of the informed decisions we make are a part of this process
This includes simple decisions to complex ones
Examples: What should I eat for lunch? What am I going to study in college?

3. Evidence
Evidence is made up of new facts which we must process to reach a claim
This is the raw information that we use with our rules to make decisions
Example:
The cafeteria has chicken, steak, or turkey available for lunch today. I know we are having steak for dinner
My school is offering a wide variety of classes. Any could work in my schedule.

4. Reasoning Reasoning are the midpoint in our logic process
We compare our new information with our previous information to create a line between them
This connection leads us to our claims
Examples
I have previously enjoyed turkey and do not like to repeat similar meals in a single day
Successful Scientists are typically well-rounded people but focus on the subject they are interested in. I enjoy Physics

5. Claim
Claims are the opinions or decisions we come to after looking at evidence and rules
For example:
I would like to eat a turkey sandwich today for lunch
I should study a little bit of everything, but would like to focus on physics in college
