Ch 11
Chapter 11 was great. It combined all that we have read about in previous chapters. For me it was helpful because it gave all the different types of arguments and how to arrange them. I knew about different ways to argue stuff but i guess i never thought about how to write each argument and how some ways are better to argue than others so you need to know which way to argue that would be better for the topic you want to argue. It also depends on your audience. Also, I liked that they help us organize our arguments. Usually when I write, I just go with the flow but in this chapter, it lies out how to write or set up your argument. It goes into depth on how to set up your introduction and conclusion paragraph. I always struggle with these. Reading this chapter, i think i have grasp the way to write this kind of paper better.

I am also the type of writer that just goes with it. It seems I write with more depth doing that. But the chapter did help point out some helpful tools in order to better plan your writing which would be very helpful.
ReplyDeleteThe most helpful sections for me were about the introduction and conclusion. I also struggle with these. After reading the chapter I am encouraged that I will be able to more easily complete them.
ReplyDeleteI agree with what you said about the types of arguments. Some are better depending on how and what you are trying to argue.
