2 WAIT !! Miss.Mona AL-Kahtani

3 Argumentative speeches and persuasive speech can be the same. They are similar because both have the same purpose.. TO MAKE AN INFLUENCE ! They only differ in Style ! Miss.Mona AL-Kahtani

4 An argument is about an issue which people, quite reasonably, hold different views. It means other views are not necessarily wrong - just different. During your argument, you recognize that opposing views exist, to give you the opportunity to refute these views tactfully in order to show why you feel that your own view is the more worthy one to hold. Miss.Mona AL-Kahtani

5 Persuasion has a more single-minded goal. It is based on a personal conviction that a particular way of thinking is the only sensible way to think. As a result, you argument is expected to be more personal, one-sided, and passionate. Miss.Mona AL-Kahtani

6 The Greeks were famous for their teaching and learning as well as their arguing and persuasion. They called the art of using language persuasively rhetoric and, still today, any use of language that makes it seem more powerful is called rhetorical language. Famous examples will be Aristotle and Cicero Miss.Mona AL-Kahtani

7 Character (ethics) ‘Like you, I too feel a sense of horror …’ Reason (logic) 'If we don't do this... then...' Emotion ' Can we genuinely call ourselves human beings when we allow this kind of thing to continue..’ Miss.Mona AL-Kahtani

9 1) Catch the reader’s attention. 2) Thesis Statement: last sentence in introduction. An argumentative thesis contains: - a SHOULD (or SHOULD NOT) element -a BECAUSE element

10 Miss.Mona AL-Kahtani For Example; Stricter environmental laws SHOULD NOT be implemented to prevent global warming BECAUSE the earth’s warming is a natural ecological stage not produced by human intervention and because business benefits more without these laws. (Show other reasons for earth’s warming than human causes and show business benefits.)

11 Miss.Mona AL-Kahtani 1) First Opposition Point (“The opposition believes…”) (short – in one to two sentences) Respond/refute that point (“However,…”) 2) Second Opposition Point (“The opposition believes…”) (short – in one to two sentences) Respond/refute that point (“On the contrary,…”) 3) Third Opposition Point (“The opposition believes…”) (short – in one to two sentences) Respond/refute that point (“But,…”)

12 Miss.Mona AL-Kahtani Facts: Empirical evidence, scientifically verifiable statements, or definitions Truths: Statements that many people believe are true Statistics: numbers, percentages, polls Examples: Case histories and scenarios Expert Testimony: Credentialed authorities or experts in the field Eyewitness Testimony: Personal experiences of others related to the topic Logos: Logic and Reasoning Ethos: Reliability and Credibility of sources Pathos: Emotional Appeals (keep to a minimum, like salt)

13 Miss.Mona AL-Kahtani Tie in the “should” element to the “because” element which you have just proven in the body of your paper. Restate thesis, summarize arguments End with a note of finality: a call to action for example
