Argumentation: Logic, Emotion, Credibility; Induction, Deduction; Fact, Opinion, Toulmin, Popper
Another long episode, 2 hours. TL;DR is below: Argumentation in academic terms is a formal process that uses logical, emotional, and ethical appeals to persuade an audience, which may be skeptical, sympathetic, neutral, or hostile. Deduction follows the structure of a syllogism, where a major premise and a minor premise logically lead to a conclusion that must be accepted if both premises are true. Induction uses an informal structure where evidence supports a hypothesis. This hypothesis can be confirmed to a high degree of certainty based on the evidence but...

Invention: Subject to Topic to Thesis
Source: Kirszner, Laurie G. and Stephen R. Mandell, Patterns for College Writing: A Rhetorical Reader and Guide, Brief Edition, Bedford/St. Martin’s, 2015, 65-86. This is another long episode. A highly condensed summary of essential information below: Subjects are general areas of focus, while topics are specific aspects within those subjects. To narrow our focus, we choose a topic within our subject, such as examining pencils through their historical impact or modern manufacturing methods. A thesis is a clear, focused opinion on a topic, guiding the argument. A thesis statement includes the th...

Comparing and Contrasting
Because this episode is over one hour long, the following is a brief summary of chapter 11. Source: Kirszner, Laurie G. and Stephen R. Mandell, Patterns for College Writing: A Rhetorical Reader and Guide, Brief Edition, Bedford/St. Martin’s, 2015, 321-372. Essays may compare two subjects or contrast two subjects but most often do both. Shorter papers may use a subject-by-subject structure with little risk of disorienting the reader. Longer papers tend to use a point-by-point structure so the reader is not obliged to navigate between pages to understand the arguments being made. Transition paragraphs are necessary to...

Episode 16 - Writing a Designers' Manifesto w/ Bulent Akman
Designers have been drafting design manifestos (DM) for over a hundred years with varying degrees of success and fidelity in their professional practices. According to author Alexandra Franzen, a DM is “A written statement where you publicly declare your intentions, opinions and vision,” yet despite such a succinct characterization there appear to be gaps in understanding when it comes to the features which distinguish an exemplary DM and the function it serves (if any) in contemporary professional design practices. These days, designers’ websites seemingly prefer short generic statements that mix their approach to design with lists of techni...
