You need to realize who your audience is so that you can figure out more appropriate persuasion techniques. When you don't want to do homework, you're most likely going to be facing teachers and school supervisors and, possibly, parents. To support your opinion, you'll need to quote facts from experts and professionals who opinionate with you. After all, Finland has no homework. You'd try to look for evidence suggesting that homework adds on to students' stress and could cause anxiety and other adverse effects.

For example: when a parent is yelling at their child, they are often listing what they do for their child. This allows a child to reflect on their actions and try to correct their ways. ]]> 2017-03-06 13:57:57 UTC https://padlet.com/jcalabrese2/x61qay78cc34/wish/158015382 What makes an argument effective?- Taliea, Reema, Oscar, James, Whitney TalieaS https://padlet.com/jcalabrese2/x61qay78cc34/wish/158015784 claims
