Based on the Toulmin Model right away, my claim and qualifiers are going to be the most important aspects of my argument. In the beginning I need to explain to my audience what I am arguing. To insure my audience understands my opinion, I will support my claim throughout my paper. I also need to choose my wording correctly and make sure I qualify my statements properly. Next section of the Toulmin Model is the grounds, the proof and evidence of my argument. I must provide enough data and examples to support my claim. The warrant of my argument is how I use my evidence, and how I connect that evidence to my claim. It will be important to have the backing for why I assume what I do about my topic. Showing justification that will back up my warrant. Giving a sufficient amount of reasons for my claim will help my audience make connections to my topic. Rebuttals are a large part of any argument. Challenges I might face in supporting this argument are people who do not believe too much technology usage has negative effects on children. The rebuttals I will need are specific data and examples proving my opposing audience’s views are incorrect. Finally, my conclusion is the final step in the Toulmin Model. This is the last thing I will get to say to my audience in regards to arguing my topic. In my conclusion, I won’t really state the claim again, but I will summarize the points I made supporting my claim throughout my argument. At first I thought my argument could be susceptible to the logical fallacy of the slippery slope. But after thinking it over I feel with enough evidence, statistical data, and the use of qualifiers it will be almost impossible for my argument to be susceptible. Using qualifiers will help avoid the direct statements and will make things more conditional. I cannot assume that every child that uses too much technology has suffered some sort of social skill
