1 Toulmin and Classical Argumentation

2 The Toulmin model is a very simple and practical method for arguing your position on an issue.

3 Toulmin Model The Toulmin model is composed of 3 main steps. They are 1. Claim 2. Data 3. Warrant These three steps are absolutely necessary to creating an effective argument!

4 Claim The claim is what you are trying to prove.
Your claim is also the main portion of your thesis statement.

5 Data The data portion can also be called EVIDENCE.
This evidence is your 3 part list that will make up your topic paragraphs (if you choose to do a 3 part thesis). This is the “because” portion of your thesis statement.

6 Warrant The warrant portion are the examples YOU provide to reinforce what you are saying in each body paragraph.
