"The Claim Think of the claim in an argument as the most general statement in that argument. It may not be a particularly general statement all by itself, and some for arguments are very narrow indeed. But the claim is like the umbrella statement that all other parts of an argument have to fall under. It is the uppermost level of our "house of cards." After you have identified an argument's claim, it is important to determine how far the author intends to carry that claim. The next step in this process, in other words, is the identification of any qualifiers or exceptions the author makes to the argument's claim."

  I think I might want to do this one, because if they can get a cure then they could stop all these deaths.

Scientists at Stanford University and institutions around the country are researching new ways to boost the immune system and create a more effective vaccine that could be produced faster, without chicken eggs.

So if your kid is playing Minecraft, then according to deeply respected academic research and principles, she is not undertaking a mindless pastime. I’d argue playing Minecraft now might be one of the things that saves them from it in the future too.

Minecraft puts players to work by providing the imagination with images and metaphors that give it direction.
