Construct Sound Argument • A respectable argument contains these three things: • Claim (conclusion), Evidence, Warrant(explanation) • Speaker states a claim to an issue • The speaker validates Claim with Evidence • They explain the warrant is the reason why the evidence proves the claim Page 193-194

Use Convincing Evidence • Claims need support from convincing evidence • Supporting material provides grounds for belief • Use external evidence: narratives, statistics, facts, and testimony • Best used with new information to form opinion • Use audiences preexisting knowledge too • Listeners like to hear reaffirmation in attitudes, belief, values • Must identify what audience knows Page 195-196
