Writing To Argue, Persuade And Discuss
Gbogbo ọrọ náà
Argue, persuade and discuss are the three jobs your writing does whenever you take a position on an issue. To argue is to build a clear line of reasoning. To persuade is to move a reader to act or agree through the way you write. To discuss is to weigh both sides fairly before reaching a view. These are not separate exam questions; they are the engine behind the directed writing on Paper 2 and the first coursework assignment, and the difference between a flat answer and a convincing one.
This lesson shows you how to set a line of argument from the very first paragraph, how to answer the strongest objection rather than dodge it, and how to use rhetoric so it persuades instead of just decorating. You will see assertion rewritten as argument, a fully annotated persuasive paragraph, and a complete worked task with a model response and mark-scheme commentary.
