Identifying and Evaluating arguments
Arguments are often the logical structures that persuade other person or support your ideas. These logical structures consist of statements, conclusions and reasons that support them. A conclusion is the judgment, decision, or opinion you reach after thinking about or investigating an issue. A reason is a statement that explains justifies, or otherwise supports a conclusion. A deductive argument begins with a general statement or a general law that is then supported by specific details, reasons, or examples that prove or explain it, which are called premises. An inductive argument begins with a series of specific observations and concludes with a generalization that logically follows from it.
