How to Identify the Conclusion and the Reasons
#ArgumentMap #Argumentation #CriticalThinking
In this video we’re going to discuss a very simple and effective way to differentiate reasons from conclusions: “Therefore and because” test:
1. Insert “therefore” in front of the sentence which you believe is the conclusion.
2. Insert “because” in front of the sentence(s) that you have determined to be reasons.
3. Check if the text makes sense logically. If yes, then the conclusion and reasons have been correctly identified. If not, then analyse the text again, identify another potential conclusion and reasons and go through steps 1-3 again.
