The Lines of Argument
Responding to research |
|
Review your research looking for quotes you want to use in your editorial. Rewrite some of the quotes in your own words to create paraphrases. Also, use some summary for longer sources.
What arguments do those who oppose your position make? What research did you find on the other side of the debate? Respond to these opposing views. Present the most significant reasons opponents might disagree with you, and then craft a response to each one.
Use the Lines of Argument template. Each box will help you gather key counterarguments and respond to them. Lay out the opposing view’s claim and reason, and then respond to that argument with your own claim and reason.
