Description
Instructions: In class we discussed the differences between propositions of fact, value, and policy, and how to effectively incorporate each of these types of propositions into a persuasive argument. For this activity, you will analyze the cartoon Calvin and Hobbes in terms of the main argument of the comic strip and whether this argument reflects a proposition of fact, value, or policy.
For EACH of the three comic strips (A-C), respond to the following:
1. Summarize the main argument of the comic strip in one sentence.
2. Based on your answer to 1, is this argument a proposition of fact, value, or policy? How do you know this (defend your answer)?
Additionally, answer the following general question about propositions of fact, value, and policy.
- What is the importance of identifying whether an argument (either your own or a speaker’s) is a proposition of fact, value, or policy?
