Critique me


In thinking skills we study Critical Thinking, were you divide an argument in to reasons and a conclusion (this is used to persuade someone of something) we can support any argument if we have enough evidence, but also credibility have a very important role in the moment of supporting an argument.
To support an argument you need to think deeply of what kind of source you may use to support the conclusion. For example you have neutrality in which the source doesn't have two points of view or either manipulate the evidence. We have also another type of sources; expertise ( we suppose is written by someone who knows about it and we have to believe it) Also the bias (only one point of view is taked as important, but not presenting the other point with the same importance reduces credibility)
Now a days you have many sources to take information from, but are all of them trust-worthy? Here takes place the Reputation (you will be more believable depending on who you are) For example teacher has an oustanding grading at college and she gained the Image of being a good teacher, so we may think she is a good source. Despite all this about reputation the most believable sources are the ones that have eyewitness (someone's see it so he/she knows it's accurate information) But this fails if the story is not telled by the eyewitness itself because some details can be lost or changed.
The Corroboration is used by connecting all this ideas (evidence that prove that the fact is truth) But this do not always works because the evidence can connect but one of them can be false, this is called a correlative source.
    After analysing all the points mentioned above is necessary to know that in order to select the correct evidence we need to see the context, if there are witnesses and also the Reputation.
