Practice and reflection

Check the idea, then explain it.

Try these questions after the lessons. Responses remain in your browser and are not submitted. The questions are informal checks, not a graded or validated assessment.

1. Should a claim be broader than the available evidence?
2. Is including a quotation enough to explain its relevance?
3. Does acknowledging a limitation necessarily weaken an argument?

Transfer your understanding

For each question, explain why one alternative is incorrect. Then create your own example that illustrates the correct idea. Recognition is a starting point; explanation shows how the ideas connect.
