uncertainty.

• Is it true?
• How can its truthfulness be verified?
• Is it a fact?
EXAMPLE

• Video games lead to the increase of
violence among teens.
• Climate change is getting worse .

need to be done in order to address
issues or concerns presented in an
argument or proposition. It argues that
certain conditions should exist or that
something should or should not be done
to solve a problem.
EXAMPLE

all students.
• President Duterte recalled order
allowing kids ages 10 to 14 outside
their homes.
CLAIM OF VALUE
• argues that something is good or
bad, or that one thing is better
than another thing. Are value
judgement made based on
morals, standards and norms.
EXAMPLE
• It is better to have loved and lost than
never to have loved at all.
• It’s better to apply good nutritional
choices at home than teach them at
school, because good nutrition then
becomes ingrained in the child’s
experience.
