    Claim-reason-evidence-warrant:
    “. . . every argument, research or not, is built out of answers to five questions . . . questions that you must ask yourself on your reader’s behalf:

    • What is my claim?
    • What reasons support my claim?
    • What evidence supports my reasons?
    • What principle makes my reasons relevant to my claim? (We call this principle a warrant.)”
