Today in Mr.Rease’s American Literature class we went over hasty generalizations. A hasty generalization is an assumption made on one group based on an inadequate sample. An example of a hasty generalization is that football players are academically challenged. Hasty generalizations are not good when arguing. A slippery slope isn’t good when arguing as well. Slippery slope is making a conclusion from something but not having enough evidence. We learned what not to use during arguing.
Today in Mr.Rease’s American Literature class we presented our work. The first group was the first half of the chapter. They had an interesting illustration, and some good question. I think I answered all of group 1’s questions. Group 2 had an interesting illustration also. In my group, Kyla was the summarizer and I was the questioner. I think I had pretty good questions, I’m sure everyone was drained by the time my group went up.
