A student is examining the text to determine if the argument has been written effectively. What would you suggest to the student? : *

A) The student should look to see if a claim has been made to indicate an effectively written argument.
B) The student should look to see if the author has identified three or more details to support his/her claim and indicate an effectively written argument.
C) The student should look for a claim, details, and a counter argument to indicate an effectively written argument.
D) The student should look for a strong thesis statement to indicate an effectively written argument.

I would suggest to the student to look for options A, B, and C. These elements - a clear claim, supporting details, and a counter argument - are essential in determining if an argument has been written effectively. A strong thesis statement is important as well, but not the only factor to consider in evaluating the effectiveness of an argument.
