4 Establishing Proof Proof = information that presents sufficient reason to accept your claim Evidence = information discovered through research that back up claim Reasoning = providing support for your claim Proof = Evidence + Reasoning

5 Types of Reasoning Generalization Analogy Sign Argument Statistics
If two groups share similar characteristics then I can apply my idea to the other group Counterexample Analogy Uses a specific example as its basis False analogy Sign Argument When one instance occurs so does another Fallible sign arguments Statistics Data viewed as a survey or as study of precise relationship Authority Assumption that person of authority knows his/her subject well (explanation, example, statistic, expert opinion)

6 Logical Fallacies Weaknesses in your critical thinking
They can damage your credibility, as the other team can point our your flaws Types of Fallacies: Faulty Cause (Post Hoc Ergo Propter Hoc) “Wow you brought good weather with you.” Really? Attacking the Person (Ad Hominen) “The candidates wife is an idol so he’d make a bad mayor.” Hasty Generalization I met some Korean students. They’re really stressed out. So all Koreans must be stressed out. Bandwagon (Ad Populum) Everyone’s wearing hipster glasses; if you’re not you’re behind. Red Herring Oversimplification

7 Stock Issue Analysis Resolution = change the present situation
Is there harm in the present system? Is the harm inherent in the status quo? Will the proposal solve the problem? Affirmative must prove all of them. Assumes present system is static (won’t change)

8 Persuasive Speeches

9 Informative vs Persuasive Speaking
Persuasive speaking urges us to choose from among the options; informative speaking reveals and clarifies options. Persuasive speaking asks the audience for more commitment than does informative speaking. The ethical obligations for persuasive speakers are even greater than for informative speakers. The Persuasive speaker is a leader; the informative speaker is a teacher. Persuasive speaking more often involves emotional appeals that are out of place in speeches to inform. Why is persuasive speaking useful for debate?

10 Persuasive Speeches Fact: The KC Royals will win the World Series this year Value: It’s unhealthy to get less than 7 hours of sleep per night Policy: The Korean Government should provide more Korean lessons for foreign residents
