Argument Writing “Argument is mainly about logical appeals and involves claims, evidence, warrants, backing, and rebuttals. Argument is the heart of critical thinking and academic discourse; it is the kind of writing students need to know for success in college and in life---the kind of writing that the Common Core State Standards puts first.” George Hillocks, Jr. Teaching Argument Writing
