Students share their answers to

the class

Every time you are having an argument with your parents or

teachers, you are applying the techniques of argumentation in real
life or in daily basis but only not in a literal essay form. The
argument with your parents or siblings is an example of informal
argument or you are simply or unconsciously using the parts of an
argumentative essay.

D. Discussing new concepts and In writing, arguments are used in argumentative texts. Newspaper
practicing new skills #1 editorials and commentaries are usually argumentative. In school ,
when your teacher asks questions that require you to give your
opinion and you support them with evidences, you are actually
making an argument. Take note that when you write an
argumentative text, your primary purpose is to convince the reader
to consider your point of view. Remember, a topic can be
argumentative if it has two sides. It’s either you agree or disagree
on the issue.

Let us now delve deeper into our discussion for today. The
following are elements of an argumentative essay.

ISSUE – is an idea about which the opinions of people are

different.
CLAIM – a statement by an author about an issue. It is also called
a position, stand, or point of view.
ARGUMENT – an idea that supports the claim. It needs supporting
evidences.
EVIDENCE – facts in the real world that can be used to support an
argument.
Examples of Evidences are statistics, data from studies, historical
events, habitual practices, and other facts that can support an
argument
COUNTERARGUMENT- an idea given by the opposing side
against the claim given
REBUTTAL – the response to the counterargument
PRO – an argument in favor of a claim or advantage regarding
something
 CON – an argument against a claim or dis advantage regarding
something
Learning how to write an argumentative essay will help you
develop critical thinking and research skills along with developing
how to rationally defend a stand.

information needed
for the argument.

Does Freedom of Speech Give People the Right to Use Hate

Speech?

“What is freedom of expression? Without the freedom to offend,

it ceases to exist” Salman Rushdie. The quote perfectly sums up
the never-ending debate about freedom of speech and hate
speech. It is a well-known fact that freedom of speech and
expression belongs to the group of fundamental human rights of
every person on this planet. Lately, we are witnessing the rising
concerns about hate speech, is it protected by this basic human
right or freedom of speech should have some limitations?

Given the fact that every individual is allowed to express

thoughts and beliefs, banning the negative comments would, in
fact, deny his or her basic rights i.e. freedom of speech. Freedom
of speech reinforces all other human rights, thus allowing society to
develop and progress at a constant rate. The ability to state our
opinion and speak freely is pivotal for any change in society.
Throughout the history, society evolved thanks to the individuals,
great thinkers, brave leaders, who were not scared to express their
beliefs. Back in time, those beliefs that were contrary to the typical
“mindset” would be considered as hate, a hatred towards their way
of life, culture, and tradition. The most reputable professors,
experts, and campaigners only confirm that free speech has always
been used to fight for change, for better times

Besides reinforcement of other human rights, free speech is

also essential due to the ability to hear others and be heard at the
same time. We need to hear other people’s views as well as
offering them our own opinions. Unfortunately, one of the fastest-
growing problems of our society is that people rarely listen to
others and acknowledge their takes on certain topics if they don’t
agree with them. We should feel comfortable exchanging ideas and
thoughts with those who have opposing views. Experts agree that
way there would be less “hate speech” circling around Finally,
freedom of speech is the most important human right that every
individual has the right to exercise. This freedom comes with the
ability to express one’s opinion, regardless of its nature good or
bad. What our society needs today are not limitations of free
speech, but making efforts to establish dialogues between people
with conflicting beliefs. Listening and being heard will go a long
way; that way we could build bridges instead of burning them.
