No matter where students' lives lead after graduation, one the most essential tools we can teach them is how to comprehend, analyze, and respond to arguments. In Teaching Arguments, Jennifer Fletcher provides engaging classroom activities, writing prompts, graphic organizers, and student samples to help students at all levels read, write, listen, speak, and think rhetorically. Teaching Arguments will help students learn how to understand multiple perspectives; the tension between belief and doubt; the interplay of reason, character, and emotion; the dynamics of occasion, audience, and purpose; and how our own identities shape what we read and write.
