Quarter 4, Week 2 - Judging the Validity of Evidence

 


Our topic was about Validity of Evidence, Evidence is the available body of facts or information indicating whether a belief or a proposition is true or valid. These may include data, facts, quotations, arguments, statistics, research, and theories. which add substance to ideas and demonstrate what has informed that way of thinking and how these ideas fit in with, and differ from, others.Also analysis is The process of putting together an argument. There are types of Evidence. The first one is Statistical Evidence, is the kind of data people tend to look for when trying to prove a point. It presented as a percentage or number, to survey-type data. The second type is Testimonial Evidence, is bringing an expert opinion to support the claim. The third is Anecdotal Evidence, is stories or case studies that support your thesis. The last type is Analogical Evidence, is often used when information is scarce about something and little is known about the topic credibility of the proof.



The activities re easy and you can do it right away. I learned that Validity of Evidence use to determine what survey questions to use, and helps ensure that researchers are using questions that truly measure the issues of importance. Also listening is one of the macro skills in English language. We listen to a lot of things every day, but not everything we hear are true, correct and should be deemed trustworthy. Therefore, we need to learn to evaluate what we hear and listen to and weigh its truthfulness and relevance. To be able to do that, we need the ability to judge the validity of evidence listened to. We also do spelling and learn new Anglo American Writer and he is James Mercer Langston Hughes, Also new figure of speech and that is "Pun". There's none I find it difficult and the highlight of the blog is to know the types of Evidence.
