Considering Types

In this blog post, I will consider different types of public arguments I can use for project 3.

I am mostly considering a position and proposal argument for project 3. I feel like a position argument is versatile and fits all the needs of my argument. The only downside is the lack of a specific idea that I am bringing forth. This is where the proposal argument shines. In a proposal argument, I would be able to give my own idea on computer science education and defend it using all the toosl we've already learned. In the end, I am likely to choose the proposal argument. So many people give position arguments that are repetitive and highly unnecessary. With a proposal, I have a chance at making a legitimate impact on computer science education.

EDIT:

After reading Chelsea's Rhetorical Action Plan and Considering Types posts, it is apparent that Chelsea is on the right track using a refutational argument for project 3. Chelsea is choosing to focus on the negatives in aerosol injection. Therefore, an argument refuting the pros of aerosol injection and its overall benefit is perfect.

After reading Casey's Rhetorical Action Plan and Considering Types posts, I understand her choice to use a position argument. It makes the project simple and familiar. However, I feel like a proposal argument might be more effective. Personally, when any argumentative piece gives an alternative to what is currently available, I automatically give the piece more credit. I think we should always be suggesting new ideas so we may approach a more effective and efficient society.
