Using Models. Using the arguments developed in Box 2.1, diagram any of the arguments using Toulmin’s model. Include claims, data, warrant, backing, qualifiers, and reservations. Take the same argument and use the Co-Orientational Model to diagram it. Identify the claim, evidence, reasoning, and level of dispute.

1. What similarities and differences did you find?

2. Which model offers you a better way to understand the argument?

3. Use the critical thinking process discussed in Chapter 1: What issues would you expect Juli and Steve to address? Do they address them? How does this affect the quality of the arguments?
