Your teacher asks you to write a paper that supports a claim with evidence. In four sentences, describe one claim you would like to make and discuss different forms of evidence you can collect to support your claim. Where would you look for this evidence?
One claim I would like to make is that regular exercise improves mental health. To support this claim, I can collect evidence in the form of scientific studies that show the correlation between exercise and improved mental well-being. I can look for this evidence in academic databases such as PubMed or PsycINFO, where I can find peer-reviewed journal articles on the topic. Additionally, I can collect anecdotal evidence by speaking to individuals who have experienced improvements in their mental health through regular exercise. Finally, I can also gather statistics from reliable sources such as national health organizations to showcase the overall positive impact of exercise on mental well-being.
