Bedford Researcher - Chp. 13

For our final paper, our arguments must be fully developed and clearly organized. Chapter thirteen talks about ways to accomplish these things during the drafting process. Arguments consist of reasons and supporting evidence or claims, so it is important to gather this information and categorize it into groups, such as benefits, alternatives, experience, values, etc., so you can decide where each piece would best fit into your paper. Creating a way to organize according to a particular pattern is a good idea when arranging your outline. After establishing your claims, you must consider your audience and what would be the best way to appeal to your readers. This process will work wonders when creating an outline. Don't forget to double check for fallacies within your argument; you want your argument to be logically sound!
