DETERMINING TEXTUAL

EVIDENCE
MODULE 7
As a critical reader, you should be able to
recognize and formulate counterclaims about
what was read. Counterclaims refer to claims
that refute previous claim in your readings. It is
necessary to locate evidence provided by the
text to prove one’s counterclaim.
To clarify one’s position on giving counterclaims, you
also learned how to formulate evaluative statements.
Reading texts should be
examined Carefully by identifying evidence that support
the author’s claim, finding evidence that support the
claim and evaluate if it is worthy for sharing. After
learning these skills in formulating evaluative statement,
you must learn to determine textual evidence to validate
assertions and counterclaims made about a text read.
WHAT IS TEXTUAL EVIDENCE?

•Textual evidence is defined as the details given by the


author in order to support his/her claims. It reveals the
position of the writer and makes the reading more
interesting. Evidence are details that strengthen, add
variety or weight to anyargument.
•Finding textual evidence on a read text helps you make
interface using concrete evidence on your claim. To
support one’s claim, you should explicity cite the ideas
that support your claim in your writings.
There are different ways on how you can present
textual evidence in your writings. It can be
through paraphrasing or restating the text in your
own words, through summarizing or stating in a
shorter way the text and other relevant details to
support the idea, through referencingor
mentioning a specific section in the text and
through quoting or directly restating a part of the
text.
