Strengths Of A Well-Structured Argument

Decent Essays
I feel the strengths of my presentation are that I presented a well-structured argument. My sources were reputable in their content, and my visual aids were appropriately used. The purpose presented was logical and presented in a level that anyone without a prior knowledge of the subject can understand. I think it touched on not just a political audience, but an emotional one too. I think my weakness on this project was I would of liked to of been able to provide more information and slides.

    In 1968 a philosopher named H.J. McCloskey wrote an article titled “On Being an Atheist,” which attacked the main arguments held by theists. The main arguments that he refers to as “proofs” are the cosmological argument, the teleological argument, and the ontological argument. McCloskey’s article debunks these arguments as being false and without proof. He states that theists should dismiss the idea of God entirely. He claims in his opening statements that he will show reasons why theists should be miserable just because they are theists (1).…

    Beth seems to always give great presentations. Her persuasive speech on Pope Francis was one of those. It was obvious that Beth spent a lot of time preparing the speech and creating her outline. I am not sure of her exact organization pattern for the speech, but she used the class topic and focused on Pope Francis’ environmental plan. Her organization of her presentation aid and speech were easy to follow, and helped increase the persuasion on how Pope Francis’ plan could be helpful to the world.…

    Peer Review 1: No Name Cognition: I think that your proposition is good and definitely falls within the genre of a justificatory argument. However, I’m not sure that your argument feels like a justificatory argument. This seems to me to be like an explanatory piece overall because you don’t provide much evidence to support your proposition. You explain the background of your argument, but you don’t explain why the debate about Cleopatra’s race has relevance and why it should continue. This is especially since you say that we can never really know her race; it raises the question of what the point is of talking about it.…

    The strength of my presentation is that it answers two main questions about the subject matter, what it is and who is at risk for this type of injury. It explains what a concussion or TBI exactly does to the brain. The presentation then turns its focus to those at risk, athletes of course, but also others including war veterans affected during combat situations. Another strength is how the visuals are put to use. It combines the pictures and information shown on the graphs to help correlate with the main speaking points for each particular slide.…

    The third best presentation was Teenage Drinking and Driving by Hayley Breitschuh. She made it very personal by adding the story about the crash at Stoney Creek. It was in the logos style because it gave more facts than stories and it was in the Rogerian style because the other side of the argument is completely wrong. A counter argument would be that teen drunk driving is okay because it was their decision to drink in the first place. The audience it would be for is teenagers and their…

It is demanding excellent education for all” “It implies an end to the double standard and education in education, a double standard that gives high quality teaching to students and exclusive suburbs and inferior schooling to children in slums, they give preference to some states over others” You would think that this quote by Francis Keppel, in 1965, then the Commissioner of Education, who was the driving force behind the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 could have been quoted by Precedent. George W. Bush as he was implementing No Child Left Behind act of 2002. So what does the Elementary and Secondary Act of 1965 have to do with the No Child…
