Inductive Argument Analysis
The article I read was about an upcoming football game between the Bears and the Seahawks. The argument is simple and easy. The premises are: 1. If Shaun Alexander is not in the game on Sunday night against the Bears, then the Seahawks will lose. 2. Shaun Alexander will not be in the game on Sunday night against the Bears. Then the conclusion is: The Seahawks will lose to the Bears on Sunday night. This is a simple argument. Premises: If not A, then not B. Not A. Conclusion Not B. This argument is clearly inductive. While Shaun Alexander not playing has a big impact on the game this does not guarantee the conclusion of the Seahawks losing the game. According to most people they believe that this conclusion will be true but it does not guarantee

    Zack Stovall Argument Analysis

    I think the way Zack presented his argument was set up very well and followed the Dewey and Toulmin argument models we learned in class. He first framed the problem, then gave his claim and grounds to support it. His grounds pertaining to how parents should not be stigmatized due to pushing sports on their kids because of the growing obesity issue was very logical in the technological based nation we all currently live in. However, I think he should have further addressed at which point parents should stop pushing sports on their kids or what the line is for pushing too hard for their children to play sports. Additionally, I believe his argument would have been stronger if he would have elaborated more on his response to objection. However, his argument made logical sense and I was convinced to be on his side of the argument. In my opinion, his argument was a success with only a few improvements needing to be…

    Term Paper, Part 1

    Now, I must use the dictionary to symbolize the argument in a way that reflects the reasoning accurately. The first sentence is “There is no reason to believe that banning violent video games will reduce violent crime,” which simply becomes “~T.” Next is “If there is no reason to believe that banning violent video games will reduce violent crime, then banning violent video games will reduce violent crime.” Once translated, this becomes “(~T) ⊃ B.” “If Congress does not ban violent video games, then Congress must be corrupt,” is now written as “(~V) ⊃ C.” Finally, the conclusion “So, banning video games will reduce violent crime and congress is corrupt,” is “∴B • C.”…

    Along with a good mentor, comprehensive induction allows a first year teacher to enter the profession with sensitivity to professional communication, networking, reduced preparations, and if possible, a teacher’s assistant. These factors have the tendency of improving retention for first year elementary and middle teachers. It is more cost effective for schools to invest in induction programs instead of settling on replacement strategies that result from attrition. If the personal exchanges between mentor and protégé illicit understanding, caring, and trust, then credibility is established.…
