In Class: Construct, Create, and Corrupt with Arguments
Anyways, so finally learned how to construct an argument? Well, not so much construct but more actually make the articles that helps an argument be an argument because everything is an argument...wow I hope you understood that.
Oh and I don't necessarily mean corrupt, that wasn't the right word I wanted to use but hey it fits so we'll just go with it.
Before we anylized the actual arguments that were made in reaction and now we learned how to make those arguments - not just analze them.
Aparently I can't spell analyze today.
Anyways, this was interesting because there are many different ways to write an essay to make it accesible or to create the level of argument.
----
How would I impliment this?
It'll help in Unit 3 because, well, we have to make our own arguments - our own reactions. We aren't going off of some article a journalist wrote in reaction to an event. No, this time it is our own article that we will be creating. I'm rather excited abotu this because creating authentic looking (well they are authentic, we created them) pieces that state an argument, a pov, an idea, a reaction about an event is really empowering.
Unit 3 is all about the group's reaction to an event - I've never really been asked to give my reaction to an event - it's always been analyze this and get on with your day so the fact that I learned from the reading how to impliment and use these to my advantage in Unit 3.
I'm looking forward to creating my own arguments alongside with my group.
sorry <3
