Induction and Deduction

Another objective that we learn in this class was the difference between induction and deduction.Most of the people can confuse this two syllogism and the arguments can by analyzed wrong.When we talk about the induction,we try to induce or influencing other people to do something that we believe is correct.One example of this is"Elderly who eating sugar at night can become a diabetic patients".We are interfere with those people by inductive reasoning.All this techniques will help is with our argumentative papers.In deductive writing the first paragraph offers the major premise,and the last paragraph,the conclusion.(The language of Argument,12th edition).

Argument by authority

The most important objective that we learn in this class is Argument by authority.This subject is really crucial when we try to persuade someone in what we believe.Argumentative papers need to have some fundamental points and need to be focus in our audience.To argue something we need to be an expert on the subject at hand.We need to use examples to prove evidence in the topic.Compare our point of view with others authorities is another technique that we can use to have a better argumentation in our testimony.Depend on the audience we can use different types of authority as religious authority,mass authority,critical authority and others.
