Triad #1
Data: facts and evidence, aka grounds or datums -- can never be implied
Claim: thesis, the statement being argued
Warrant: logic to legitimize the claim- link from data to claim -- can be implied
Triad #2
Qualifier: statements that limit the strength of an argument OR propose a condition under which the argument is true
Rebuttal: counter-arguments indicating circumstances when the general argument doesn't hold true (aka reservation)
Backing: serves to support the warrant but doesn't prove the main point -- different from data, although it can be data
Syllogism: If _____(data)_____, then _____(warrant)_____, therefore _____(claim)______.
