Question

For this assignment, you will select a recent Op-Ed and analyze an argument in the article using the tools of informal logic. (1) Select a recent Op-Ed from the list below:

Getting creative with the cultural sector benefits society and the economy https://www.thenationalnews.com/opinion/editorial/2023/08/09/ dubai-uae-culture-creative-economy/ The UAE's fresh vision for Cop28 could break the world's pattern of climate disagreement https://www.thenationalnews.com/opinion/editorial/2023/07/14/ the-uaes-fresh-vision-for-cop28-could-break-the-worlds- pattern-of-climate-disagreement/ How the UAE made its roads safer https://www.thenationalnews.com/opinion/editorial/2023/05/18/ road-traffic-safety/ (2) Analyze one key argument from your selected Op-Ed. You do not need to submit a narrative essay and you do not need to simply copy and paste the sentences from the articles. Instead, you can use your own words without changing the meaning of an argument. Please answer the prompts below:/n(a) Reconstruct the Op-Ed's argument (approx. 200 words) Explain whether the Op-Ed makes an inductive or deductive argument. Explicitly use the terminology of informal logic (such as premise, conclusion, conditional, connective, quantifier, etc.). Make sure to put it in valid premise-conclusion form (P1, P2, .. C). (b) Evaluate the Op-Ed's argument (approx. 250 words) Endorse or reject the argument, explicitly using the terminology of informal logic (such as validity, soundness, and fallacy). For deductive arguments, evaluate whether it is valid or invalid, giving support or objections to at least one of the premises. For inductive arguments, evaluate whether it is strong or weak, giving support or objections to at least one of the premises. (c) Develop a counter-argument (approx. 250 words)/nProvide at least one counterargument to your evaluation in Part B. Then, respond to your own evaluation using the language of informal logic as appropriate. (3) Use proper APA style guidelines to cite appropriate, scholarly work (https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/560/01/). You do not need to do a large amount of outside research for this paper, but must properly cite any research you do.
