Student A - Evaluation • Student A claims that his argumentation develops from „simple“ to „complex“. • His focus is the difference between (sensible) policies and freedom of choice. • He used two sources: a newspaper article and a teacher information sheet. • The lack of (powerful disciplinary) knowledge inhibits him from formulating a convincing progression in argumentation.
Student B - Evaluation • Student B describes the progression in her argumentation in three steps: • Explanation of the process of aging populations without using concrete numbers. • Impact of aging on the economy; usage of concrete numbers and more abstract terms (e. g. employment rate). • A change of perspective to the less commonly reflected impact on global warming, critical thinking. • She used eight sources: some statistics, some theoretical. • The acquisition of knowledge helped her to formulate a convincing progression in argumentation. • Shedid not useanygeographicalconcepts.
