Analysis of the Arguments Presented in Response to the Allegations against an Online Education Website
Journal Title: Asian Research Journal of Arts & Social Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
This paper aims to analyze the arguments in an article written by an online education website in response to accusations of fraud and misconduct levelled in another article published by a popular news magazine. This paper aims to analyze the arguments by applying Damer’s model of argument analysis. The analysis follows the arguments criteria of structure, relevance, acceptability, sufficiency and effectiveness of rebuttal. The paper also aims to unravel the fallacies used in the arguments that violate the criteria of construction of good arguments. The analysis may help to find out whether the arguments presented by that website were strong enough or simply deceptive in trying to prove the accusations as false.
