The information in Chapter 4 of Everything's An Argument helped me to understand the ways that I can use facts and common sense correctly in my researched argument. I need to be able to back up any claims or assumptions with facts if I want to be credible in my writing.
The explanations concerning evidence in Chapter 16 were also useful. Several types of evidence were presented, with clear examples and guidelines for what to record. Chapter 19 also offers many examples, along with guidelines for evaluating different sources, including a list of "Signal Verbs" on page 542. Using a variety of verbs throughout the final paper will enhance my writing and help reduce repetition.
