Today in class we went in-depth on the topic of claims. There are three types of claims. The first is claim of fact is to argue that something is or isn’t true. Next is claim of value, this is how something does or doesn’t meet a certain criteria. Last is claim of policy, this is when you make a claim with intent to make a change. Saying that pizza is the best food is an example of claim of value. Arguing that marijuana should be legalized is an example of claim of policy.
Today in class we learned something new. We learned about logical fallacies. The main on we reviewed was hasty generalizations. This is making an assumption on a whole group that isn’t necessarily true. They remind me of stereotypes. My favorite part was the examples we made as a class. Todays class was fun.
