ASSIGNMENT Toulmin Essay
The Toulmin method is an informal method of reasoning. Created by the British philosopher Stephen Toulmin, it involves the data, claim, and warrant of an argument. These three parts of the argument are all necessary to support a good argument. The “Data” is the evidence used to prove something. The “Claim” is what you are proving with the data. The “Warrant” is the assumption or principle that connects the data to the claim. All three parts are necessary.
Assignment Instructions
Instructions: Please carefully read the following assignment details in its entirety. There are many components to this particular assignment, and each component is graded
This essay should be between 900 and 1000 words, excluding the required annotated bibliography.The Toulmin essay will help you practice what you have learned so far in this course. First, you will choose a topic of interest. Make sure that you choose a topic with two opposing sides. Then, you need to research that topic in order to specify the topic’s scope, so it can be easily discussed in 1000 word essay. For example, you may be interested in learning more about traffic issues in the United States. However, that topic is too large to cover in a 1000 word essay. After researching peer reviewed articles that discuss US traffic issues in general, you may discover that the metro system in the District of Columbia is underfunded and underutilized. Through your research, you found that you could make a claim that more funds should be made available in order to upgrade the metro system, which would improve traffic issues in the District of Columbia. This would make for a stronger, specific argument.
