D#8, HW#1, Reading Reflection

From this weeks online reading i mainly picked up that thesis is the main topic of reading and that in order to have a non-debatable, strong, thesis you need to narrow and strongly state your opinion. Also, link #2 from the top was broken. I did notice that the last link was a repeat to review what types of sources to include and if a source is credible origin. In the book, i would have to say that on page 111 in chapter 5, that is a dang strong emotional argument that really gets its point across. I did learn that the method that i seem to model sometimes is called the Toulmin model in Chapter 6, which arguments start with claims that will later be proved or disproved. Chapter 8 was about arguments of definition which i have written before.
