By citing all the different resources he is able to prove that he had done a great deal of research on the subject matter and he is very knowledgeable about it. His choice of phrase“… one of the best-researched finding…” (238) surely adds to his credibility. He also uses some of his other works/studies to back his claims, this further show that he has a deeply rooted interest and first-hand experience with the issues. As much as this strengthens his narrative, it also weaken his argument because, using his own work introduces bias in his argument. We already know he is against the traditional grading study so of course the use of his work will be to prove and not disprove the claim. All the works cited are in support of his argument no
