Both
the Mission Critical and the Causal Argument websites were extremely helpful.
The Mission Critical website discusses the basics of an argument. It tells you
how to analysis the arguments with the different types. It tells you about the
appeals and the fallacies. It explains the misdirected appeals and the
emotional appeals. One thing that stood out to me on this website was the
universal statement because the “all or none” idea. It is considered to be the
universal term. A lot of unqualified terms are meant to be universal terms, which
includes singular and plural nouns. The causal argument website discusses the
strengths of a casual argument. The strengths in a casual argument are how
acceptable the implied comparison is, how likely the case of for causation
seems to be, and the creditability. Complex casual arguments usually use
commonality and difference reasoning to show that the suggested cause is the
only significant difference.
Looking through both of the websites was very helpful. Throughout the semester we learn so much information we tend to forget some stuff, but after browsing the website it all came back to me. There were a couple concepts that were new to me but the majority of it was something I learned in the past. The introduction to universal statements was a concept that was new to me and it caught my attention also. The fact that any term which is described in terms of "all" or "none" is called a universal term, which was very new to me. I never even heard of this type of statement so I was glad I was able to browse the website.
