Argument Reading Response

Luckily, I was raised in a house where asking questions and arguing were part of the normal routine or behavior. Because of this up-bringing I now understand what Bruce Ballenger is saying when it comes to forming an argument paper. I generally only have to act like I always have; ever questioning.
This reading material correlates well with what our class in what we are about to undertake, I believe that this paper will help me formulate my ideas and concepts more clearly. I might even go so far as bringing up my topic to another individual and see where the argument leads; you never know I might stumble on to a point of the topic that I wasn’t aware of being passionate about. According to Bruce, “Argument and conflict in some cultures is an expression of commitment and caring.” I hopefully will find this commitment and with any luck the direction to research.
This is why this material was important to us, it just gave us a new way of looking at our problem topic, and if it didn’t do that for you, I’m sure you found something to take away from it. Even if all it was learning about discussion group websites, like Google Groups. I know I personally took enough away from this to make my paper worthwhile.
