Introducing Argument

To attempt someone to do something, to buy something, and to believe something, we can utilize many means, such as state-of-the-art, rhetorical, and argument. Of these means argument is the one in which attempt is made by giving a good reason to someone to believe something, to accept what is being, and to do what is supposed to.

In a research, the researcher expresses a research question. Then, s/he posts the literature review to make audience understand what others have developed in the area being researched. Next, s/he needs to put forward the findings in the argumentative way. That means giving audience the reasons about what is happening, what should be done, where is the cause of something originated in, and so on.

In introducing an argument, s/he presents a set of propositions in which the main point or the conclusion is normally presented at the end. The researcher presents premises first to support the main reason of an argument and finally comes the main reason. In analyzing arguments, the audience need to identify, reconstruct, and evaluate them to get the clear concept of what is being attempted. Good arguments can provide good reasons to accept a claim.
