Developing an Argument
When you develop your argument, you
are confirming your own position and
building your case. Use empirical
evidence, such as facts and statistics, to
support your claims. Appeal to your
audience's rational and logical thinking.
Argue using your evidence and research.
Basic Components of an Argument:

• The claim (typically answers the question:

"What do I think?")
• The reasons (typically answer the
question: "Why do I think so?")
• The evidence (typically answers the
question: "How do I know this is the
case?"
What is an Argumentative Essay?

- A type of essay that presents arguments

about both sides of an issue. It could be
that both sides are presented equally
balanced, or it could be that one side is
presented more forcefully than the other. It
all depends on the writer, and what side he
supports the most.
Argumentative Essay Structure:
A. Introduction

a. Hook - First of all, think about a

powerful, eye-catching hook to grab your
reader's attention. Sure, it is important to
know who your target audience is first.
Different people require different
approaches.
Argumentative Essay Structure:

b. Background Information - Don't try

to write too much in this part. Simply name
a topic and give a hint on what you'll be
talking about in your argumentative text.
Briefly explain why the topic is important
and who cares about it.
Argumentative Essay Structure:

c. Thesis Statement - This part

contains the main argument. Don't pose
any questions here - just state your main
point of view clearly and without any
hesitations.
B. Working on your Arguments

a. Claim - It is a statement to support your

argumentative essay's thesis.

b. Evidence - This is based on credible facts

and statistics the writer finds during the
research process
C. Looking for opponent’s claims

- For every argument against, you should

present enough evidence to prove you're
right.
D. Conclusion
a. Rewrite the thesis statement - While
arguing with various opinions, you have
lost the focus. Remind the readers of your
topic by restating your thesis. Make it clear
why your argument is a winning one. The
best way to do so is to present how the
things would turn without your idea being
implemented ASAP.
D. Conclusion

b. Write the importance of the researched

topic again - To make your statement
persuasive enough, use loud arguments.
