Initial Post Instructions
For the initial post, address the following:
• Find and post examples of deductive and inductive arguments. Do NOT use an
argument example which clearly indicates it is an example of an inductive/
deductive argument.Â
• For each example, evaluate its logical strength, using the concepts and ideas
presented in the textbook readings, the lesson, and any other source you find
that helps you to evaluate the validity (deductive) or strength (inductive) of the
argument. You can use examples from the text, or you can find examples
elsewhere.
â—¦ Editorials and opinion columns are a good source, as are letters to the
editor. Blogs will also often be based on arguments.
â—¦ Use mapping and evaluative techniques to make sure it is an argument.
• Is it inductive or deductive? Explain why.
• Does it pass the tests of validity and strength? Explain.
