Initial Post For the initial post, address the following:
Find and post examples of deductive and inductive arguments. Do NOT use an argument example which clearly indicates it is an example of an inductive/deductive argument.
For each example, evaluate its logical strength, using the concepts and ideas presented in the textbook readings, the lesson, and any other source you find that helps you to evaluate the validity (deductive) or strength (inductive) of the argument. You can use examples from the text, or you can find examples elsewhere.
Editorials and opinion columns are a good source, as are letters to the editor. Blogs will also often be based on arguments.
Use mapping and evaluative techniques to make sure it is an argument.
Is it inductive or deductive? Explain why.
Does it pass the tests of validity and strength? Explain.

Hi y’all,
Deductive reasoning is when you start from what you assume is accurate and draw conclusions that must be true if your assumptions are valid. A type of logic in which one goes from a general statement to a specific instance.
Example of Deductive Reasoning: The catalog states that all college freshmen must take an English placement test. Dianne is a freshman at Kean University and, therefore, will take the English placement test. This argument is valid because the tests of validity and strength if the premises are all valid, then the idea is also considered valid (Facione, 2016). This example’s assumptions are correct because of the facts being printed in Kean’s catalog.
Example of Inductive Reasoning: My grandparent’s bank safe was robbed last week. Whoever stole the belongings in the safe knew the safe’s combination. Only two people know the safe’s combination: Aunt Marie & George. Aunt Marie needed money to pay her gambling debts. Last night, Aunt Marie was seen sneaking around outside the bank (it’s a small town; everyone sees everything). Therefore, it is reasonable to conclude that Aunt Marie robbed my grandparents’ safe. I suppose that this statement has strength because an inductive argument is an argument that is strong enough that, if the premises were to be accurate, then it would be unlikely that the conclusion is false (Bradford & Weisberger, 2021).

Revolutionary America
After the Constitutional Convention of 1787 in Philadelphia, the nation’s new Constitution had to be ratified by the states. The debate over ratification became very heated, especially in New York. This led to a spirited exchange of short essays between the Federalists, who promoted the new Constitution, and the Anti-Federalists, who put forward a variety of objections to the proposed new government.
Project 3 addresses the Federalist/Anti-Federalist debate as preparation for further analysis in the Final Essays in Module 8. This week, you will examine the arguments presented by the Federalists and Anti-Federalists and answer a series of questions about their arguments. This will prepare you for the Final Exam in which you will construct a fictional debate between a Federalist and an Anti-Federalist.
Begin by completing the assigned readings for Module 6 and then reading these excerpts Download these excerptsfrom the Federalist Papers. Then, answer these questions in approximately 200-300 words each, using evidence from the excerpts to support your points:
Federalist Paper #1 states that “History will teach us. . . .” What does the author tell us history will teach us and why?
Federalist Paper #10 lays out the causes and effects of factions. What are the causes, what are the effects, and how does he propose to control the effects?
Federalist Paper #51 states, “If men were angels, no government would be necessary.” What does this statement mean? How is this statement used to justify the division of powers?
Federalist Paper #84 states that a bill of rights in the Constitution is not necessary. How does the author back up this claim, and how does he distinguish between the Constitution and previous documents like the “Magna Charta” (Magna Carta)?
Next, read these excerpts Download these excerptsfrom the Anti-Federalist Papers. Then answer these questions in 200-300 words each:
Anti-Federalist Paper #1 states that “The PEOPLE are the grand inquest who have a RIGHT to judge of its merits.” According to the author, who is trying to prevent this and why?
Anti-Federalist Paper #9 uses satire to present the perspective of the Federalists, or those who consider themselves better than the “rabble.” Why do they take this tactic? How do they present the Federalist’s supposed view of the average citizen?
Anti-Federalist Paper #46 asks, “Where then is the restraint? How are Congress bound down to the powers expressly given?” What makes the Anti-Federalists think that Congress has too much power? How does the proposed Bill of Rights play into this?
Anti-Federalist Paper #84 states that the Constitution needs to be “founded on a declaration or bill of rights.” Why do the Anti-Federalists think this is so vital?
Your assignment should include all of the following:
200-300 word responses to all 8 questions, submitted together in one Word document
Concrete evidence, in the form of paraphrasing and quotations, from the primary sources
In-text citations and references or a bibliography, when necessary, in APA or Chicago style format

Imperialism Impact
Feel free to change the topic of this paper. You will use the textbook, the source book, and the BBC news link as sources.
-Reflection Paper
Choose one imperialized country to focus on (see the list below for ideas). Who imperialized them? Why? How? How did imperialism impact the imperialized country? What are the long-term effects of imperialism? (Begin with text chapters 25/26 and primary source book for this, as well as any other chapters that apply). EX: Algeria was imperialized by France.
Reflection: How does the history of imperialism impact the present day situation in the country that you are discussing? How does this history impact you in the present day/where do you fit into this? (what do you know about this nation from your own education, maybe you’ve traveled there, heard about them in the news, what conceptions of this nation did you grow up with/have now). Read up on the nation’s current status via news networks (BBC News (https://www.bbc.com/news/world) would work well) and reflect.
Write 5 full paragraphs (min 4-5 sentences per paragraph) – intro, 3 body and conclusion. Size 12 font, Times New Roman, double spaced.
***You MUST use the TEXTBOOK, and one primary source quote from the Sources of World Society primary source book (or “Documents from Sources for World Societies” on Launchpad). Primary sources are the words of someone who experienced the event, do not quote the editor of the small book as a primary source!! Essays without use of the textbook and primary sources will receive a ZERO***
