Answer to Question #217707 in English for Tubby

Question

Read the following passage several times and then reflect on the validity of the argument with the help of the prompts that follow:

Curriculum implementation is of phenomenal importance and needs to be done correctly to propel the learners to understand and embrace knowledge. There can be no doubt about policy experts’ view that curriculum implementation always promotes thinking and learning of new things in the daily working environment of all educators. Generally, teachers have excellent knowledge and wisdom of tackling the obstacles in the curriculum implementation. Teachers are the stronghold of successful future children and if the children become passive, this passiveness will be seen in the developmental and progressive stages of the learners’ life through the school system.

Which means that a claim is regarded as true because an authority accepts it. There is a distinct example of an improper appeal to the authority in this passage. What is it?

Answer 1

Curriculum implementation always promotes thinking and learning of new things in the daily working environment of all educators.

Yes because it summerizes the importance of curriculum through pathos (emotional appeal) and logic or reason (ethos).

The author reaffirmed that "teachers are strongholds of successful future children." A stronghold is a "defensive" structure that provides a safe haven for oppressed people and acts as a fortification in times of threat. It modifies the tone (safety) of the message by provoking an emotional response from the reader.

The is some logic in this sentense "if the children become passive, this passivenss will be seen in the developmental and progressive stages of the learners'life through the school system." Passive learning is important because children gain skills and eventually evolve to active learning.
