Excerpt from An Introductory Course in Argumentation
While the course calls for a sustained piece of work, its preparation and criticism by installments are provided for, so that there is no dearth of work during the course and no accumulation of work at its close.
A good course in elementary argumentation should be introduced into every high school composition course. There is no form of discourse that will do so much to break a student of hand-to-mouth writing and thinking, that will so give him the habit of look ing beyond his nose, of doing work in a purposeful way, with a sense of the relation of parts, of the structure of the whole composition. It facilitates development out of the acquisitive, transmitting stage into reflective, modifying, originating power.
