THESIS

Ristyaqilah Gusti – 12 d

1. “https://english12.forumotion.com/t186-the-devils-code

Thesis:

Unlocking the devil’s code and its solved code

Claim/argument:
He is in between, he doesn't pick a side. Neutral.

Evidence/reasoning:
He identifies the positive side and negative side and take them both into account. However, the he wrote down both positive and negative in the same amount. Both sides have 2 points. Making him being neutral with this topic

Comment:

By reading his article, I was able to find out his claim and his point of view when seeing this topic. He is clearly neutral and doesn't pick a side. Although I do believe in the devil code and mysterious topics, I do believe that I am still neutral when talking about this topic. I believe that the only one who know what the code is, is the author itself. And considering that is has been 300+ years, I don't think that the code is valid.

2. https://english12.forumotion.com/t195-descendants-of-atlantis-alma

Thesis:
The existence of the Lost City of Atlantis

Claim/argument:

She did not mention her claim, although she argues whether the lost city of Atlantis truly exists

Evidence/reasoning:
She mentioned facts, biological facts, that I presumed is mention in the blog, and she is able to structure them and fighting against theories that she believes doesn't make any sense.

Comment:

I did enjoy reading her argument and also the article itself. However, I did have a hard time identifying her claim, because she fights the argument and didn't end her examination with a summary or an opinion.

3. https://english12.forumotion.com/t196-the-viral-kkn-desa-penari-twitter-story-ataya

Thesis:
A Viral Twitter post, about mystical creatures

Claim/argument:
She believes that the thread in twitter is something believable, and for that reason, she believes that the thread is something that is real. She also mentioned her point of view as a student and a public citizen.

Evidence/reasoning:
She mentioned the facts of the twitter thread and having reasons to why and how this thread is something real and protects her claim

Comment:

I enjoyed reading her thesis and how she identifies the twitter thread. From her brief summary, I am able to catch the glimpse of what the thread is about. She also is able to mention her claim and is able to protect it. However, it would be better if the also argues her own claim, that way, it would be more challenging. Questioning our own statement.
