D#9, HW#1, Reading Reflection

In a section of chapter seven, it discusses the process it took for scientists to prove or disprove the case about the Ivory billed woodpecker. It went extinct, yet some sixty years after the bird went extinct, there was a spotting in Arkansas. The ornithologists had to make their factual argument to the naturalists and the extremely skeptical scientists. Chapter eight it stresses that it is important to share the first draft with someone to insure that others views are taken into consideration. I believe this step is one of the most helpful to myself. Fallacies, I have covered in multiple other college and high school classes. In eleven, they advise if a personal experience of yours backs up your original claim, there is no harm in using it. The thesis statement is the general topic or point you are trying to make. Therefore it is very important to develop it and then back it up with strong examples. Gonna stress over that outline.
