Discussion 1

 

1. Buying a Car Scenario

   Prior to answering this week’s discussion, make sure you have completed the readings and can spend time fully examining the “Buying a Car” scenario. If link doesn’t work within the post, here’s the actual link: https://bridgepoint.equella.ecollege.com/curriculum/file/38d80e6c-2422-436e-b99b-0d458a340dc3/1/BuyingaCarScenario.zip/story.html

2. In the car buying scenario, just like in real life, you were presented with an argument for making a different purchase than what you had originally intended. Think of a time recently where you were presented with an argument that was intended to change your opinion on something. Using that event, complete the following:
   1. Present the argument in premise-conclusion form.
   2. Identify whether or not it was inductive or deductive and evaluate it for quality. Be sure to speak in terms of valid/sound for deductive arguments and strong/weak for inductive arguments. Note that last week you were merely asked to present whether or not you found the argument convincing. This week you are being asked to use your new knowledge to evaluate the arguments based on validity, soundness, and strength.
   3. Explain whether or not you were convinced by the argument.
   4. Explain whether you were correct in your judgment of the argument.

   Use the “Steps for Evaluating an Argument” template to help you structure your response. After you have completed the argument template, you will then be able to use that template to write out a response in which you cover all the elements that were included in the argument template.
   You must post to this discussion on at least four separate days of the week and your posts must total at least 400 words as you address the questions noted above.

   Discussion 2

3. Deductive and Inductive Arguments 

   Present an example of an unsound valid deductive argument and a sound valid deductive argument from the media. Outline both arguments presenting the premises and the conclusions of both. Explain why you believe the arguments are sound and unsound. Include a URL to the arguments drawn from a media source. You may draw from the week’s required multimedia for examples. If you are unable to locate examples from the media, you may identify arguments from your life. After you have presented your deductive examples, present an example of an inductive argument from the media and determine whether it is strong or weak. Explain your reasoning about why it is strong or weak, and then explain how the argument might be strengthened. Include a URL to the argument drawn from a media source. If you are unable to locate examples from the media, you may identify an argument from your life.
   You must post to this discussion on at least four separate days of the week and your posts must total at least 400 words as you address the questions noted above.
