Induction vs Deduction: Follow Up

Tuesday and Wednesday we spent trying to understand and recognize how induction and deduction work together in an argument.  We saw how it worked in "The Declaration of Independence" by Thomas Jefferson and "The Declaration of Sentiments" by Elizabeth Cady Stanton.

Here is a link to a website that offers you some more explanation of the two and how they work in rhetoric: Induction and Deduction.

In the end, what I would like to you remember about these two forms of reasoning:

 Being aware of HOW a writer builds an argument using reasoning is one powerful tool you now have to analyze another's rhetoric (the "THEY SAY") and determine its strength or effectiveness.  And ultimately, they are essential strategies that I hope to see you utilize in your own writing (the "I SAY").  



Also, keep in mind the three ways to respond to what "They Say":

1. Disagree with Reasons
2. Agree, but with a Difference
3. Agree and Disagree simultaneously (concede and refute)

Here is a link to the sentence frames from Professor Graff's book They Say I Say: Responding to THEY SAY(page one) and Responding to THEY SAY (page two)
