Decision Making · Question 1 of 20:00 / 1:03
Should a college provide drinking-water refill points in order to reduce purchases of single-use water bottles? Which is the strongest argument in favour?
Three checks, in order
| Check | Reject the option if |
|---|---|
| Aim | It argues about something the question did not ask |
| Yes or No fits | The reason argues for the other side |
| Evidence | It is an opinion, a generalisation or a guess |
Common traps
- Emotional appeals with no link to the aim.
- "Some people" claims with no evidence.
- True statements about a related but different policy.
