43b621d19e88 | 9627B47C10DE | The first reason I think seeking multiple opinions can help someone make a better choice is that one person could know more about the situation than others. | Claim | Effective |
dc9909a22f40 | 9627B47C10DE | For example, let's say that Generic_Name decided to ask her friend Generic_Name, who was also friends with Generic_Name, what to do. Generic_Name would probably inform Generic_Name that Generic_Name was talking bad about her behind her back and spreading rumors about her. This new information could help Generic_Name make the right choice about how to deal with the situation. | Evidence | Adequate |
39dfb3c65bf4 | 9627B47C10DE | Another example is if you want to buy your best friend a gift for her birthday but you don't know what to get her. You decide to ask your friends to help you pick a present and they don't know what to get her either, so you decide to ask her boyfriend what you should get her and he tells you that she told him that she wanted to take a trip to the spa. Then you would know what to get your friend because you asked someone else who knew more about the situation. | Evidence | Effective |
dc47bb695d20 | 9627B47C10DE | The next reason I think seeking multiple opinions can help someone make a better choice is someone you ask could have gone through something similar and know what to do about the situation | Claim | Effective |
ef51744b90fd | 9627B47C10DE | Let's say Generic_Name was still unsure about what to do about her toxic friend, she could ask her old friend Generic_Name, who stopped talking to Generic_Name a while ago, what to do. Generic_Name knew that Generic_Name used to playfully make fun of Generic_Name but then one day Generic_Name just left the group. Generic_Name could tell Generic_Name that she went through the same thing and she just couldn't take it anymore and she had to leave that situation. This information could help Generic_Name make a choice because she now knows that Generic_Name has treated her friends like this in the past and that she is not just being sensitive | Evidence | Effective |
ad1ed727be14 | 9627B47C10DE | Another example is if you want to adopt a new pet but you don't know if you should adopt a hamster or a bird, so you decide to ask your friend, who has a bird, if you would be a good bird owner. Your friend could tell you that having a pet bird takes a lot of time and you need to be able to give your birds the proper care and attention that they need. Whereas when you asked your friend who has a hamster if they need a lot of attention she said no because they are nocturnal .You know that you're a very busy person so with the information your friends gave you, you can make an educated decision to not get the bird. | Evidence | Effective |
0a8843b58745 | 9627B47C10DE | Finally, I think seeking multiple opinions can help someone make a better choice because you can see different people's reaction's to the situation | Claim | Effective |
dbe0b087d956 | 9627B47C10DE | For instance, in Generic_Name's situation she asked three of her friends what to do about her toxic friend Generic_Name. Two of her friends told her bad things about Generic_Name and gave Generic_Name more reasons to stop being her friend, whereas only one of her friends told her to keep being Generic_Name's friend. Since more people reacted the same way to the situation, Generic_Name now had a more informed opinion and a better idea of what to do. | Evidence | Effective |
b2277902e962 | 9627B47C10DE | Another example is if you want to start a business selling jars filled with dirt and you ask your friends if you should. Your friends could give you different reactions to the idea. Four of them could say that it's a terrible business idea and two of them could tell you to go for it. Since more people felt that it was a bad idea you could rethink it and make a better decision in the end. | Evidence | Effective |
64b13ceccf02 | 9627B47C10DE | Seeking multiple opinions can help someone make a better choice because one person could know more about the situation, someone could have gone through something similar, and you could see how different people react to the problem. | Concluding Statement | Adequate |
6b9b5237d5d4 | 971158C1AE69 | A lot of people think seeking multiple opinions can help someone make a better choice. I think this is true because the more you know about something the e better and Easier for you to pick choice | Position | Effective |
6f270c377ef1 | 971158C1AE69 | Imagine this, you find out your mail was robbed. You know that the mail always comes at 2:30 and you saw when the mail man came and dropped it in front of your house. Then you saw two teens walking in front of your house. You might quickly regconise them and quickly call the cops but they wont get arrested on the spot. The police will have to have witnesses,and the teens

8707194dbbfb | 971158C1AE69 | Thats why i always ask my friends to give me there point of view in things, its easier for me to pick a choice between just by knowing whats better for me. Point of views will always help you doesnt matter what problem you have because you can literally figure an answer quickly.

f95be20ba6fb | 97A6E516249D | As the world has recently entered the era of technology, the possibilities that comes along with it seem to be boundless. Instantly having the ability to talk to someone halfway across the world and having access to so much knowledge at the click of a button are just a few of these possibilites. A new development in the area of education is online learning, where a student does not go to school and instead learns from the comfort of their own home. Although it sounds nice in theory, online learning for all students is not feasible nor is it realistic. | Lead | Effective |
2a48a546cf75 | 97A6E516249D | Distance learning, also known as online school, would not benefit students | Position | Adequate |
8df30531a9af | 97A6E516249D | due to the fact many kids might get distracted and procrastinate, | Claim | Effective |

74950d939b7d | 97A6E516249D | students will miss out on many experiences and activities that come along with going to a physical school. | Claim | Effective |
b4b1f30a88af | 97A6E516249D | While the internet can be used in very useful and academic ways, there are also a plethora of ways to get sidetracked. Things like social media platforms and Netflix will always be there taunting the student, requiring a substantial amount of willpower to not give into these deep dark holes of mindless entertainment. If it is already hard enough for students to focus in classrooms with a physical adult present giving instructions, just think how much harder it will be to focus without any of these accomodations (plus the addition of having the freedom to wear pajamas and move at their own pace). Not only will they have other platforms distracting them, but they will also have to make sure they are staying on track and not pushing things off to the last minute | Evidence | Effective |
f31fd49b12f3 | 97A6E516249D | Students, especially high schoolers, have a tendency to procrastinate and wait until the night before to complete assignments, so what happens when a child decides to push all of their online classwork off to the last minute? | Claim | Effective |
58155ef48cee | 97A6E516249D | This is not a practice that is condusive to their future and cannot possibly be maintained healthily, thus showing that distance learning is not realistic. | Evidence | Effective |
0a25142d28c9 | 97A6E516249D | Mental health has been a common topic over the past few years and the conversation around it is thankfully becoming more normalized. School is a huge facor that goes into mental health, and many students do not know when to stop overloading themselves with classes. They can get so caught up in doing well that it can destroy their mental, as well as physcial, health. | Evidence | Effective |
b468cc41e69f | 97A6E516249D | While a student cannot be in a physical building all the time, they have access to the internet at all hours of the day, putting unneeded stress on some students. | Claim | Effective |
1ce76ebfcdc1 | 97A6E516249D | Due to the ability to be constantly working, this may make students feel like they can never truly get away from school. Even if a student travels or is on vacation, they could still be doing work. Students deserve breaks and the right to enjoy growing up, not having the shadow of a test or classwork loom over them twenty four-seven. This feeling can negatively impact a child's mental health, providing that distance learning would not beneficially impact students.
| Evidence | Effective |
bcdbac8952dd | 97A6E516249D | Lastly, distance learning makes students miss out on so many activities that come with going to a physical school. | Claim | Effective |
2de203c08bd9 | 97A6E516249D | School spirit and pep rallies, sports, and questionable cafeteria food are just a handful of these experiences. The American middle school and high school experience has been romanticized in countless movies and TV shows, and many do not wish to miss out on that. Even if good or bad experiences occur in a physical school, most adults look fondly upon their high school years as a learning experience and a time to have fun. Real friends and relationships blossom from having physcial interactions with each other, not sitting behind a screen. Distance learning can cause a student who is not a social butterfly to stay in isolation at their house, thus creating a breeding ground for mental illness. Going to a school in the presence of physical people is much simpler and benefits a child much more in regards to social interactions and access to activities. Online learning will cause students to miss out on great experiences; therefore, distance learning is not beneficial for students. | Evidence | Effective |
ca37a20623e8 | 97A6E516249D | All in all, online learning is just not realistic | Concluding Statement | Adequate |
1b12c3bdc355 | 97A6E516249D | It's great in theory, having the ability to work at your own pace and work from home | Counterclaim | Adequate |
2c87e6d68910 | 97A6E516249D | but some would not do well with this change or would abuse the system | Rebuttal | Adequate |
5a14aea4207e | 97A6E516249D | Procrastination is a word that teenagers are familiar with, and online learning creates an enviroment where it is too easy to push work back until the last minute. While students can push work back, they also have the constant ability to access their classes, putting excessive stress on a student and destroying their mental health. In addition, students will not be able to have the traditional American school experience they learn online. Even though we are moving into a new age where technology is heavily emphasized, sometimes it is best to stick with the traditional way. | Concluding Statement | Effective |
ae5a082f138e | 97E7DD4E7C69 | ''Hey, should I wear this or this tomorrow?'' I'm sure we've all had a friend ask us our opinion's on something, like what to wear on the first day of school, but ever wonder why they go and ask others on their perspective as well? | Lead | Effective |
8fb37901749e | 97E7DD4E7C69 | The majority of people tend to ask more than one person about their thoughts on something | Position | Adequate |

65ab348f8604 | 97E7DD4E7C69 | Someone such as a friend will usually ask more than one of his/her piers on their thoughts or opinions on something and will go on asking more people the same question. After, he/she will take all the responses they have received and will most likely go with what the majority of what their piers said. People tend to do this because they want to have an open mind about what a group of people think rather than just one person. Next, why seeking multiple opinions can lead to a better choice. By asking multiple friends, piers, and even family members their thoughts on something that may or may not be important, it could help save someone from making a bad choice in the future. To conclude everything that was previously stated, Asking for multiple opinions is a great way to double check if someone is making the right choice because they will have stopped them from making a choice that they could have regretted ten years from then.
| Evidence | Effective |
8c095e99da09 | 97E7DD4E7C69 | I know when I need someone's opinion I dont just ask one person I ask all my friends and even some of my family member's before I make a decision, and I also ask why they went with that choice to have a better understanding as to what helped them conclude to their response. By looking through someone else's perspective it could lead to a more open mind and can give a person more room to understand what other people think and why they think it . | Evidence | Effective |
e14c0924f03a | 97E7DD4E7C69 | Having an open mind is when someone is able to take other people's opinions and instead of judging it they try to understand it. I believe people who ask for multiple opinions are very open minded and are willing to listen to other people's perspective besides their own. In conclusion, it is always important to keep an open mind when asking other people for their opinions or advice. | Evidence | Effective |
27edba272df0 | 97E7DD4E7C69 | To conclude this entire essay, When someone is asking for advice or opinions about something they are just trying to keep an open mind are trying to make the right decision that they wont regret later in their life. So next time someone asks for an opinion don't get jealous when they walk away to ask another person the same question, remember that they are just trying to keep an open mind and they want to hear what others have to say too. | Concluding Statement | Adequate |
e5f269adc205 | 99863EAC8F7F | You are presented with one of the toughest choices in your life.
As a gift, you received two tickets to Disney World.
One is for you, and the other is for whoever you choose.
All of a sudden, a million questions and possibilities fill your head.
Would you rather go to Disney World with your best friend or your significant other?
What about your brother, uncle, or mom?
With a problem like this, you have to seek advice.
Have you ever had an issue so tough that you needed to seek advice?
I know for certain that I have encountered this problem before.
With issues like that, I always seek advice from numerous people before making my final decision. | Lead | Effective |

| Claim | Effective |
1b781d6fbaa3 | 99863EAC8F7F | By asking many people for advice on the situation, you encounter people that are wiser, smarter, and far more experienced than yourself.
For example, I remember encountering a situation as a fifth grader where I had to choose between saving my money or buying a new gaming system.
I had been saving this money since fourth grade, and I had accumulated more than four hundred dollars.
When I went over to my cousin's house, I was able to play on his gaming system, and I thought it was really fun.
Before I left, I made sure to ask him if I should invest in the same gaming system or to save the money.
His response was to buy the system.
Even though I got the advice I needed, I made sure to ask other people the same question.
Next, I remember asking my parents if it would be worth it.
My mom had told me that we already had lots of video games.
On the other hand, my dad told me that it was my money, and if this is what I decided to spend is on, it was completely fine.
After seeking multiple points of view, I had finally made my decision.
I was going to buy the gaming system.
To this day, I still play on that console, and I do not regret my investment.
After asking many people, you start to see a pattern in answers.
In my case, I figured out that the majority of people I asked said it was a good idea to buy the console, | Evidence | Effective |
c0354bc6921a | 99863EAC8F7F | If we go back to my story about whether or not to buy the console, the answer I received most was, "Yes."
Ultimately, that was a big factor that told me I should buy the console.
If you ask many people the same question and you get the same answer, whatever they are telling you is probably the smart and correct thing to do.
It may not necessarily be the decision you were thinking of making, but it may be one to consider.
Back at the beginning of the school year, my English teacher assigned our class a project where we have to make a difference in our community.
At first, my idea was to organize a community-wide sports equipment drive.
When I got home that day, I discussed my idea with my parents, and they told me that was not the best idea, and that we should sit down and discuss a better idea.
I decided I wanted to prove them wrong.
Fast forward a couple of months, and I am struggling to get anything done on the project.
That night, I told my parents that my idea would not work, and they just gave me that "I-told-you-so" look.
From there, we devised a plan where I would instead help the volunteers on the Blue Ridge Parkway.
Right now, my project is going great, and I am close to crossing the finish line of completion.
From that, I learned that you need to take advice of others because, in my case, my parents knew what they were talking about.
If multiple people tell you that something is not the right choice, then you should probably reconsider.
That was a life lesson I needed to learn, but from seeking advice from more than one person, you learn many life lessons.
| Evidence | Effective |
36ccfee69972 | 99863EAC8F7F | From my experience of failure from my school project, I learned that even though you think your idea sounds good, you should still be open to improvement.
My decision on buying something I wanted taught me opportunity cost.
From asking people for advice, you can learn may valuable things that will assist you.
Not only do these decisions affect a singular situation, but they can be applied to life very easily.
Now, if I am interested in purchasing anything, I always weigh the options, and ask others what the best thing to do would be.
I learned that skill from asking people for advice.
These are the lessons that are learned first hand.
You do not just read them in a book, but instead, you are taught by experience and others. | Evidence | Effective |
fa0ab13515f6 | 99863EAC8F7F | After asking for advice from numerous people, you ultimately decide that you want to take your brother with you to Disney World.
Though those people you did not choose may feel bummed out, you know you made a good, educated choice because you took advice not just from one person, but from many.
If you had only asked one person, they could have told you to take your grandfather, dog, cousin, son, etc.
Instead, asking many people gave you a better grasp on the situation, ultimately allowing you to determine the best choice is to take your brother.
Asking many people for advice before making a decision is a good choice because you can examine other people's opinions on the situation, figure out what the best choice is by finding the most common answer, and learn many life lessons.
So the next time you face a difficult choice, ask more than one person for advice before coming up with your verdict. | Concluding Statement | Effective |
1ae13737dd75 | 998E0F68318B | While walking the halls of a high school building during the winter, one can hear sneezing, coughing, and the constant blowing of noses. Students walk the halls half dead and slouched over. They come to school sick because missing a day of school can be catastrophic to their grades. In the past 40 or so years, most high school students have gone from taking one or two AP level courses, to six or seven. These fast paced classes can do wonders for a grade point average, or they can ruin it. AP classes are so fast paced, missing a day of school means missing vital learning time. By the time sick students get back on their feet, their class has probably moved on to another unit | Lead | Effective |

ffdce291219b | 998E0F68318B | Schools have become cesspools for diseases like strep, the flu, and colds. Students come to school sick because they believe they have to, and in some cases they are right. Missing school means makeup work, which is a task most students would want to avoid. Having double the amount of work while simultaneously getting over an illness causes sleepless nights of stress and anxiety. As a way to avoid makeup work, students have started to come while sick. The sickness will spread throughout the school and cause outbreaks, more students will come sick to keep up with schoolwork | Evidence | Effective |

0d5e3e7220cb | 998E0F68318B | Distance learning will keep kids at home and the spread of germs will be stopped. Students will also no longer have to stay up late to teach themselves difficult material. Distance learning is the best solution to the epidemic of sick students in schools. | Evidence | Effective |
0d8d3cb2d170 | 998E0F68318B | More time. That is something very student wants. Colleges are no longer looking for just good grades, they want someone who made varsity in their sport, is well rounded in their club choices, works a solid job, and has given back to their community. If you look at the average day of a high school student, you will see they start with morning club meetings, usually at 8 A.M, then at 9:15, about seven hours of school. At 4:03 P.M. most will go to athletic practice for three to four hours, they'll get home at 8 or 9 P.M. and then sit down with two to three hours of homework. They'll sleep at 12 A.M. or later and wake up at 7 A.M. the next day to do it all over again. Most will volunteer or go to a part time job over the weekend. | Evidence | Effective |
95bbdcefe064 | 998E0F68318B | So when exactly does a student have free time? The answer is easy. Never. Distance learning will solve that. | Claim | Effective |
90edb9c09b93 | 998E0F68318B | Almost all students have a study hall during the day, an hour and a half to just do homework, through distance learning that study hall turns into an opportunity. Students could grab food with their friends, get ahead in their classes, hold club meetings online, or even get some rest. The format of distance learning allows students a more flexible schedule, they can sit in on a video chat while cleaning their room. Distance learning will help students to free up time out of their day and make them less stressed. | Evidence | Effective |

2e0378a794b7 | 998E0F68318B | Attending school from home means students can sit in bed in their pajamas and work on assignments, and the lack of interaction between students will cause them to lose their social skills. | Evidence | Adequate |
5697b62602b5 | 998E0F68318B | Both of those ideas, however, are false. Most high school students do not put in the effort to dress nicely for school everyday already, they would rather be comfortable then look nice. Through video chatting, students have the opportunity to interact with their peers and teachers, everyone needs social interaction and distance learning takes that into account. Many students find it easier to learn while sitting at a desk or table, both of which are very common in any household, therefore, students lazing around in bed while learning is highly unrealistic. | Rebuttal | Effective |
be1414245f9e | 998E0F68318B | Distance learning is a solution to the large amount of sick students and high levels of stress. By giving them more free time and a place to work on school from home, distance learning allows students to have a more enjoyable school experience. Many students will agree that there is just not enough time in the day to get all their work done, distance learning will provide them with a way to adequately keep up with studies while giving them time to work on other tasks. Schools have progressed to become more difficult as time has passed, causing the systems to become outdated. Students are unhappy with the way schools are currently run, its time for a change. | Concluding Statement | Effective |

637609e6e39b | 9DCA96730E4B | Have you ever asked someone for advice on a certain issue and listened to how they told you to respond, only to realize they had no idea what they were talking about? I personally have, and know many people who also have gone through the same thing. | Lead | Effective |
94a7cf6359d5 | 9DCA96730E4B | When you ask one person for advice, you aren't aware if they are familiar with issues like the one you approached them with, and wether or not they know how to respond to it properly | Evidence | Effective |

3581f9717eb4 | 9DCA96730E4B | When you ask multiple people for advice on an issue, you are probably going to get different answers from all of them because they are all different from each other and have different views on how you should approach the issue. It helps you see all sides of the issue, including ones you might not want to look at. Also, when you hear what everyone has to say about the issue and how you respond, you start having better understanding of the issue and the other sides of it. Asking more than one person for advice and listening to what everyone has to say also increases the chances of you making a good choice. When you listen to everyone and take some time to think through the issue, you obviously are going to make a better choice than when you just wing it and do whatever you feel.
| Evidence | Effective |
a02b581f77b3 | 9DCA96730E4B | Having more than one solution gives you no limitations. You have a choice and options on how you would like to react to the problem or decision you are trying to make. Also by seeing other perspectives, you can make good choices with the options you have and know how to pick the best choice. For example, you own a company and you get an offer with a lot of money to cut down the forest and build a mall in its place. You don't know what your answer is going to be and you just don't know how to make that decision. You go to ask your friends and family about what they think you should do. They give you multiple answers to the decision and multiple points of view. Your mom says yes, take the deal, there are so many trees in the world, you cutting down a 100 isn't going to affect anything. Your friend says no, don't take the deal, there are animals and creatures that depend on those trees for survival. Your cousin says take the deal, but change the coniditons, build the mall somewhere else. You hadn't even thought about the animals that depend on those trees! Now by having all these new perspectives and all these new choices, you are able to make the best decision for the enviroment and for yourself. | Evidence | Effective |
c2e7ce99b40c | 9DCA96730E4B | Maybe somebody has already had to make a choice like this before and made the right choice and wants you to learn. Maybe somebody has already had to make this choice and made the wrong choice and wants you to learn from their mistake. It doesn't matter, even if they've never had to make a decision like this before, they can still have good input and information about the topic. Learning from others mistakes and gaining knowledge and information increases your chances of making a good decision because you learn what will happen if you make a decision. Some might argue that only you know what is best for yourself and you should make your own decisions. I agree with them, but you have to keep in mind that I'm not suggesting that other people make the decision for you, only that you you get multiple views and hear what others have to say. In the end, the choice is truly yours, but listening to what people have to say can help make it easier to make the right decision. | Evidence | Effective |
33af7fbab78a | 9DCA96730E4B | Making a decision is extremely difficult and stressful, but asking others for input and advice on the issue can help you make the right choice because it widens your mindset, you end up having more than one solution and more than one perspective on the topic, and you learn from others past and gain information and knowledge from it. You don't want to be in the position where you ask only one person for their advice and listen to them, only to realize they really didn't know what they were saying. The one guranteed way to prevent that from happening is by getting multiple peoples opinions. Now, next time you are faced with a huge choice to make, I hope you ask more than one person about what they think you should do. | Concluding Statement | Effective |
83a841b8b1c2 | A0448AC8783F | Not everyone can do things without any help. Some people need others to support them. When you make difficult choices, you always want advice before it actually happens. Sometimes people aren't sure of themselves, and they might not think that only one person is trustworthy enough. | Lead | Effective |
75b511a3f5ba | A0448AC8783F | People talk to more than one person for advice because they want to make a better choice. They want to hear what other people have experienced, their personal feelings about the situation, the pros and cons, how they view everything, so they don't feel anxious about it as much. | Position | Effective |
cc5b4b2cc4ce | A0448AC8783F | No one wants to do something when they don't know what will come out of it, and not only one person can help them. Sometimes people just need more assurance before they do something big, and talking to more people helps them a lot more than one person can alone. People talk to more than one person because they want their choice to be the best and most beneficial choice no matter what. | Evidence | Adequate |
4117d61bd92b | A0448AC8783F | Everyone has lived a different life, whether you were rich or poor, healthy or ill, no one has lived the same life as another. When you need help making a choice, you talk to people because they haven't lived exactly like you. They haven't lived exactly like anyone. I would need to know what other people have spectated or experienced when they have had to make a choice similar to mine because I don't want one person to help. I want more people to help advise me because they might have experienced more than I have. You get more wisdom to make your choice when you hear more experiences. They view things differently than someone else | Evidence | Effective |
eae9aa46a3f3 | A0448AC8783F | Getting more than one opinion makes sure you don't hear just point of view. It opens your eyes to many other things instead of being one-sided. | Claim | Effective |
1e570e09de1d | A0448AC8783F | People have anxiety when making hard choices. They always think of all the things that could go wrong in the process. Talking to one person doesn't always help, some people might think their opinion isn't enough. I don't always trust my opinion or my judgment. I need others to make me feel safe and secure, so that I can really trust what I'm doing. I don't want to make a choice when I'm anxious because then I will regret it later. I know I wouldn't be in the right mindset to make a choice if I'm anxious, so talking to more than one person would relieve most of my stress and anxiety. If you talk to only one person, you only get one of everything. You don't know everything that might happen, so you don't really know if you're doing the best thing. No one should make a choice when they are not sure about it. They should always feel that their choice was the best that they could have done | Evidence | Effective |
