Gerald Graff and Cathy Birkenstein clearly believe that critical thinking and writing go deeper than any set of linguistic formulas, requiring that students question assumptions, develop strong claims, offer supporting reasons and evidence, and consider opposing arguments, so why do they recommend templates?

Templates make it easier for professors to understand what students mean by what they've written.

Templates give students a language for expressing these deeper habits of thought in a clear, organized way.

Templates make it easier for the students to sound like they know what they're talking about.

Templates hamper the students' ability to express themselves in$-$an academic tone for more educated audiences.
