Recap...

What did we read about over the weekend?

So far we know...

  • On pages 11-19 we learn that the jurors on the case are extremely biased and most except for juror #8, believe that the defendant is guilty!

Bias Defined:

  • Prejudice in favor of or against one thing, person, or group compared with another, usually in a way considered to be unfair.
  • Simply put bias means that a person prefers an idea and possibly does not give equal chance to a different idea.

Final Writing Prompt:

D

Prompt

Copy this.

Argumentation Basics...

  • Logical argument:
  • (does it make reasonable sense; is it based off facts and not feelings/emotions)
  • Supportive Evidence:
  • (defends the argument), sufficient (enough to support) and specific (is not general or vague)
  • Balance
  • (explains the opposing argument before it disproves it)
