Considering Your Argument : Working out you ‘story’ and getting your central idea

Argument is one of the important points to improve the writing we make. Arguments are also often used by teachers when they give assignments to their students. An argument can be described in quite technical and particular ways, and we explore this further in the next chapter. Here we are concentrating on developing your central idea and structuring your writing around this.

1.      Building on your central idea step by step

The paragraph contains a common structure on a small scale:

1. The central idea of the sentence. This is commonly called the ‘topic sentence’: in this case, the ‘idea’ is a statement about ‘an alternative feminist approach’.

2. Adding to the first idea: the next sentence gives further explanation about the first statement concerning these women.

3. An example of what the women do.

4. A mini-conclusion or summary.

2.      Constructing your ‘story’

In writing, we need ideas to develop an argument. The trick is that we think about whether our storyline is clear? Is the story understandable? These questions will help us identify whether our writing is clear and convincing to the reader.

3.      Formulating your central idea

When constructing an argument, it is important to find the main idea so that we can convey our message well. What do you want your reader to know or think by the end of your assignment? What position are you presenting or arguing in this assignment? If we want to write, we must focus on thinking about the title and finding the central idea. If we use a central idea, it will make it easier to organize our assignment and know the direction of our writing with a clear purpose.

4.      Developing your argument from topics and themes

After discussing the argument developed by the central idea method. The central idea is the most important thing in writing. It is the core structure, and building an argument is often about putting together a number of themes to create this core structure. In conclusion, in the writing process, we need an argument that is made from developing the topics and themes we choose so that it can produce clear and detailed results so that readers are able to understand what the purpose of our writing is.
