8df741e1b4ca | C978BF282141 | From the text he made the evidce of how Venus has made it difficult to walk on or be near. | Claim | Adequate |
75fee9d23207 | C978BF282141 | He siad that the prussure and the heat is even difficult for the bots that scincetist had made. | Evidence | Ineffective |
224ca9893565 | C978BF282141 | He also siad that NASA is compelling an idea that sends human to study Venus. | Claim | Ineffective |
d5987e935080 | C978BF282141 | they are trying to make a blump-like vehicle 30 or so miles above the rollong venusian. It would still be 170 degess fahrenheit. Thought the presuure would only be as sea levels on earth.
NASA even may bring old technology called Mechanical Cumputers they were first envisiond in the 1800s and played and important role in the 1940 during World War ll. they are not like the smart phones or cumputers we have. Mechanical Cumputerscan can last in heat even longer. They work with gears and levers. | Evidence | Adequate |
736daa761c21 | C978BF282141 | The author did make good points. Which are convinceing and to be honest I wish I would go now just to see what it looks like. He proved that there is more then one way to prove that we can study venus even if we cant see it in person. | Concluding Statement | Adequate |
feb8715a33d9 | C987753AC378 | Gas prices. Car notes. Parking fines. These are all expensive things you have to pay for when you consider owning a car. | Claim | Adequate |
0841d7de0e9e | C987753AC378 | Most family get rid of their cars because of having to pay these high prices in order to keep their cars.
There are a couple of car free cities;for example German Suburbs is car free because of expensive fees they would have to pay just to have a space to park in,."but there are only two places to park-large garages at the edge of the development,where a car-owner buys a space,for $40,000,along with a home."These families would have to spend $40,000 along just to park their car in a large garage,it makes it easy for them to make the decision not to own a car because prices are so high. Having to buy a parking space for that much and still having to buy a home along with the $40,000 can cause a lot of stress on family providers because they have to basically spend all their money on one high priced item;a CAR! | Evidence | Adequate |
e158798c047c | C987753AC378 | You can become much happier without a car knowing that you don't have to spend all your money on this one item that could break down on you at anything | Claim | Adequate |
d793587787aa | C987753AC378 | As a result,70 percent of Vauban's families do not own cars, and 57 percent sold a car to move here.". For example, this mother of two is much happier without owning a car,"When I had a car I was always tense. I'm much happier this way."The mother of two became much happier because she no longer had to pay these high fines,fees,gas prices,and car notes that others had to pay for. It was other was to get around that you didn't have to bother coming out of pocket for such as,"Public transit was free of charge from Friday to Monday. This was a big help to limiting car usage. | Evidence | Adequate |
fa822ed7e3f6 | C987753AC378 | Studies show that the percentage of driving has dropped tremendously from 2005 to 2013. Most of the reason for the driving percentage dropping was gas prices;It began to get to high,President Obama tried to do something about it as much as he could."President Obama's ambitious goals to curb the United States' greenhouse gas emissions,unveiled."Fewer cars were seen on the roads driving,"recent studies suggest that Americans are buying fewer cars,driving less and getting fewer licenses as each year goes by."It caused people to not drive their cars and take public transortation or not go anywhere at all. It got to the point where"cash-strapped Americans could not afford new cars." | Evidence | Adequate |
3224bc11b60f | C987753AC378 | Some of the advantages to limiting car usage | Position | Ineffective |
7c5cc5866bfe | C987753AC378 | are just what us as Americans want/need to hear because its really expensive. It's not just about buying a car and running it off of air;your car takes gas,car notes,needs servicing every once in a while it's not easy owning a car. Studies show how much the driving percentaged dropped keeps dropping because of high expensive prices that we have to pay to own a car. | Concluding Statement | Adequate |
aa42588cfc41 | C996FC0CBE10 | If i was a scientist at NASA and i had to support thr fact that i think the face is a naturual landform I would empasize that, Life on ars is not likely becuase it has not beeen proven. Just because there are items or land marks that lead to life on Mars does not mean there has been any. | Lead | Adequate |
c89dfee51e21 | C996FC0CBE10 | Theface is indeed a natrual landform, how? | Position | Adequate |
22441ecdeb71 | C996FC0CBE10 | because if you go by the diffrent images included in the article you notice the cleared the images,the face slowly dissapears or fade away. The Face can also appear by things in spaces or objects reflecting unto the mesa. | Evidence | Adequate |
77eb0019d672 | C996FC0CBE10 | There are many landforms in Mars and the Face happens to be one. | Claim | Adequate |
072b7d70df13 | C996FC0CBE10 | For people to say that aliens are the ones causing it to look like a Face is also a arguement. | Counterclaim | Ineffective |
f614840f73cf | C996FC0CBE10 | Why ould support this detail? because of so many life forms on Earth people assume that someone had to make that happen. Perhaps aliens did indeeds have something to do with the "Face" , why would they make so clearly and if they did , why did updated cameras show that the clearer the image the face slowly decided to dissapear. | Evidence | Adequate |
f002d309448a | C996FC0CBE10 | On the other hand there are people who support the fact that the Face is just another landform on Mars. | Rebuttal | Adequate |
0aa15a4b2293 | C996FC0CBE10 | Well as you can tell Mars always had many landforms and The Face happens to be one. How can you prove that? people might ask. Well when Viking caught the images of the Face, ot certainally goes along with the fact that it does look like a FAce but agai the clearer the image got, the face slowly dissaper. When the face does disspear, slowly the landform starts to look like all the other landforms on
Mars or mesas. | Evidence | Adequate |
18a7e27d1ae8 | C996FC0CBE10 | Mant people doubt the fact that it is alien, why? because you usually do not see aliens in sight, unless you are watching a movie or reading a book about them. | Counterclaim | Adequate |
da5aa6ac09d4 | C996FC0CBE10 | Aliens could hav eindeed built it , but there has not been an actual sighting on aliens anywhere on Earth, and aliens are usually portrayed as bad people or ting sin movies or books so seeing that a Face on Mars is created by a alien would be kind of frightning because if they are portrayes as bad thing , why would they want a face on a landform. What does that mean? | Evidence | Adequate |
475badb93dad | C996FC0CBE10 | Now on my side of the story or opinion it clearly looks like a landform | Rebuttal | Adequate |
b4ca2f7cbff6 | C996FC0CBE10 | and the way it got it's "face" was by something reflecting off an object and making it seem like someone had of built that,
But again. those images do not show anything about a face and how could have "aliens" buolt something so clearly and so presised. The clues just don't go together.
| Evidence | Adequate |
78b51d306f43 | C996FC0CBE10 | In conclusion until realistic facts are proven i would stick wit the face that these are natrual landforms and "aliens" had nothing to with the fact that they built it. | Concluding Statement | Adequate |
64f03b4e19bb | C9AC065BB597 | Do you belive in weird landforms?
I believe in them because they didn't just come from any where. Also there are many landforms on the planet Earth. | Lead | Adequate |
eab866de02de | C9AC065BB597 | The face on Mars is a natural landform | Position | Adequate |
e23083dcfc42 | C9AC065BB597 | This is a natural landform because in paragraph 2 it states "Scientists figured it was just another Martian mesa, common enough around Cydonia, only this one had unusual shadows that made it look like an Egyptian Pharaoh". | Evidence | Adequate |
92baf32bb853 | C9AC065BB597 | If it was created by aliens then wouldn't they at least mark or show a sign that it's theirs | Claim | Adequate |
02d7ac104852 | C9AC065BB597 | They did mark that it was theirs by making it a face. Then why does it look like a human face? It looks lik a human face because maybe thats how they saw the first human. | Evidence | Ineffective |
7daff45a8056 | C9AC065BB597 | I believe in weird landforms because it would make since that they would get there from either destrution of something else or creation of another landform. But why doesn't NASA send a space rover to mars to scan the face and collect some samples from it? | Concluding Statement | Adequate |
fb8c8a2ffcd8 | CA2987A57568 | During school, projects are normally done throughout the course to show a student's understanding of a subject. Most schools don't assign summer projects for the student body since summer is supposed to be the break time. Some schools do give out summer projects, but keep in mind, the projects themselves, despite being assigned during break, aren't usually designed by students. | Lead | Adequate |
91760241199b | CA2987A57568 | Summer projects should be student-designed | Position | Adequate |
5558353d0e8c | CA2987A57568 | people work better with ideas they're familiar with, | Claim | Effective |
3bfe44f87397 | CA2987A57568 | this gives students more freedom with subjects for a project, | Claim | Effective |
522d2f7e6f91 | CA2987A57568 | students are more willing to do something they want to do or research. | Claim | Effective |
26413d2ea723 | CA2987A57568 | Making a project on a familiar concept means students would be able to write more in-depth about it. They'd also be able to understand it better since looking something up doesn't always give you enough info about a subject. Imagine trying to write a in-depth analysis on Didgeridoos when you've never even heard of one or even have background information on instruments. Familiarity with your work makes it come to you naturally and having the freedom to choose the subject of a project is important. | Evidence | Effective |
e235522c2968 | CA2987A57568 | Most of the time, teacher-assigned projects would have all the students doing or researching the same thing. While this makes the assignment easier to grade and gives everyone a common goal, some people want to look somewhere else. Choosing your subject could bring about interesting results and give you a new interest rather than just being given the generic science project where you monitor and grow a small plant for x amount of time. Working on something you, personally, picked out could also inspire you to put more work into the assignment. | Evidence | Effective |
c57bfe2aca5d | CA2987A57568 | Researching a subject that interests you, rather than something else, would make anyone more productive. There are lots of ideas people would look further into if prompted and this would be that prompt. Students would be able to enjoy looking up information on subjects interesting to them and put them on paper. They'd be able to turn in a well-written paper and get a good grade just for researching a fun subject. | Evidence | Effective |
b11bb0c8f045 | CA2987A57568 | having students create their own summer projects would be highly beneficial towards productivity on said project. The benefits outweight the negatives and more students would work harder on these projects. Being limited to certain ideas will make it so students don't try as hard to think outside the box. This type of work also helps students find things they're interested in for later. All of these things would help them work better and earn better results, but they'd also find more information and learn better this way | Concluding Statement | Effective |
88837a86eada | CA5DB05415A5 | It has become a common practice today for many people to use their phones while driving. They try to be as efficient as possible with their time and see no problem with trying to multitask when operating a vehicle. Some text on their phones while others may take calls or check emails. | Lead | Adequate |
4c8b8b34b851 | CA5DB05415A5 | In no regard is this a safe practice and drivers should not be allowed to use a phone under any circumstance as it only amount to a more dangerous driving environment | Position | Effective |
61e298c37ad3 | CA5DB05415A5 | Often times crashes are the result of distracted driving. | Claim | Adequate |
730da5498899 | CA5DB05415A5 | This usually occurs in teenage age groups who have a commitment to checking their phones while driving. Teenagers assume that by taking their eyes off of the road for solely two seconds, they aren't putting themselves or anyone else in danger. In reality, distracted driving via cell phone use "reduces the amount of brain activity associated with driving by 37 percent," ("Cell Phones"). Taking calls or texting confidently reduces a driver's ability to control a vehicle, respond to driving events, and direct attention to the roadway. This isn't the case for just teenagers. These conditions apply to every driver who attempts to use their cell phone while driving, thus creating a dangerous driving environment. People often drive with family members, close friends, or children in the car. The chance of a fatal crash because of distracted driving is high and it is very possible that these family members, close friends, and children could be injured or worse. It is much safer to restrict all phone use while driving in order to ensure that roadways remain safe. By not using a cell phone, a driver is better able to pay attention, less likely to crash, and following the law ("Cell Phones"). | Evidence | Effective |
950502c741b7 | CA5DB05415A5 | Many states have already offered consolation for the distracted driving problem in the United States. | Claim | Adequate |
09c5204a7914 | CA5DB05415A5 | For instance, Georgia enacted Joshua's Law in 2007 requiring 16 year old drivers to complete driver's ed. The state also recently approved the Hands-Free law, which in essence eliminated any and all distracted driving practices. States recognize the problems that come with cell phone use while driving and have taken steps to fix them. This is evidence enough that in no way, shape, or form should drivers be allowed to use cell phones while operating a vehicle. For further support, there are about 9 people killed and 1,000 injured daily in the United States because of distracted driving ("The Dangers of Distracted Driving"), thus the popularity of cell phone use while driving is a damaging practice in the U.S. and should be ended immediately. | Evidence | Effective |
88f5a533a6fe | CA5DB05415A5 | Although cell phones may be used in a beneficial manner while driving, such as GPS use, crime reporting, or roadside assistance, | Counterclaim | Effective |
9bdedac78269 | CA5DB05415A5 | it is a more viable and safe practice to prohibit its use until a person it not behind the wheel of a vehicle. A person only puts themselves in more danger, even when doing something appropriate with a cellphone when operating a vehicle, by trying to utilize it and maintain focus on the road at the same time. | Rebuttal | Effective |
f336c396a5b4 | CA5DB05415A5 | In sum, it is in the most obvious interest of all drivers that cell phone use while driving be prohibited in any way or form. It is a dangerous practice that puts family, kids, and friends in immediate danger. Any benefits that are noted of cell phone use while driving are miniscule compared to the risk one takes by even looking at a phone for two seconds. Considering states have had enough common sense to begin a prohibition of the practice in favor of all drivers' safety, it is more than adequate to say that drivers should in no manner be given the opportunity to contribute a fatal driving environment by using a cell phone. | Concluding Statement | Effective |
61082d2a008d | CAC4E6021973 | Since the birth of the internet and social media, the world has shifted to greatly favor the innovators and the free-thinkers. Society no longer demands students to find one subject they are good at, go to college to study that subject, and then get a middle class job in that field. While performing one skill at a very high level still holds value, the most successful people are those who can think ahead of the curve, those who can think of the next Amazon, the next Netflix, the next Uber, the next big thing. So, how does that relate to whether we have student-designed or teacher-designed summer school projects? | Lead | Effective |
c8ed865105a6 | CAC4E6021973 | letting students design their own projects gives them more freedom, allowing them to think outside the box, which aids the development of valuable skills that are applicable in the real world. Instead of teaching students how to follow directions on a rubric, we should be teaching them to think creatively and how to collaborate with one another. | Position | Effective |
3dcd81fc3bf9 | CAC4E6021973 | Allowing students to design their own projects gives them far more freedom than a teacher-designed project ever could | Claim | Effective |
6ef6129c0343 | CAC4E6021973 | Keeping students on a leash forces them to wear a one size fits all education. Each student is different; they all have different strengths, different weaknesses, different motivations, and different goals. That is why we need to give them tailored education. Giving students this freedom would allow them to create a project that works well for them, and more importantly on a topic they are actually interested in. If we let students do a topic they enjoy, the results will be far better compared to when they are forced to learn about something they have no long term interest in. The freedom students gain from designing their own projects is far more valuable than just following the directions their teachers gave them. | Evidence | Effective |
692097c37e77 | CAC4E6021973 | Making students design their own projects encourages them to learn how to think creatively | Claim | Adequate |
e89a6afba1e7 | CAC4E6021973 | Arguably, the most valuable skill in today's society is the ability to be able to bring a new unique perspective and thought process to any discussion. That is not a skill that can be obtained by constantly being told what to do and how to do it. Students need to learn for themselves how to go to the drawing board, find out which ideas are bad, which ones are good, and then create a plan to execute the good ones. That is not something that can be spoon fed in the classroom. That's why student designed summer projects are the perfect opportunity for schools to do their part in teaching students how to think creatively. | Evidence | Effective |
a1f61674731c | CAC4E6021973 | When forced to come up with their own ideas and think creatively students will develop and enhance skills they would have never had the teacher been the one designing the project. | Claim | Effective |
909f313bb6f6 | CAC4E6021973 | For example, if it is a partner project these two students will have to learn how to collaborate together to design a project, designate jobs to each other, and hold each other accountable for their share of the work. That kind of collaboration never would have occurred had the teacher done all that for them. When students go on to college and into their professional career they will have to learn skills like collaboration, because they won't have someone doing it for them. That is why it is important we take the time to prepare them for than now. | Evidence | Effective |
43f07db4a73c | CAC4E6021973 | A wise man once said, "don't follow where the path may lead, but go where there is no path and leave a trail." I believe that quote perfectly represents how we want our students to think. The skills developed through out of the box thinking which can be achieved by allowing students the freedom to design their own projects is far more valuable out in the real world then anything the teacher could prepare. | Concluding Statement | Effective |
58d9d241cfda | CAD2B46606E7 | The author tells us how hard and difficult it is to land or even study venus because its so hard to land on or get close to because of all the dangerous things that can happen. | Position | Adequate |
9fd4943c45f7 | CAD2B46606E7 | venus is a very worthy planet to study because nobody has ever been on it to know if there is any kind of life ont hat planet , or if plants can grow or anything. because its the closest planet to earth but the hardest to land on. | Claim | Adequate |
910ba5fbe431 | CAD2B46606E7 | because venus really used to be covered with oceans and etc just like earth and nobody can really tell what it looks like now theres just alot of curocity. a bunch of people wondering what it looks like.
but venus is covered with a thick atmosphere of almost 97% carbon dioxide blankets. But its even more challenging with the clouds and highly corrosive sulfuric acid.
But on the surface of venus temperatures average around 800 degrees fahrenheit , and the atmospheric pressure is 90 times greater than what we experience on our own planet. | Evidence | Adequate |
a3e43df3c759 | CAD2B46606E7 | venus is a hard planet to study but it is very worth it. Becayse there are alot of things you can descover about venus and alot of people that would love to know whats really on venus. | Concluding Statement | Ineffective |
6c103385844a | CAE63BBF4546 | Do you know what the challenge of Exploring Venus is? Well venus is the second planet from our sun. Venus distance but safe vantage point of Earth has very challenging place to examine more closely. They also often called Venus as the Earth's Twin. Let's see what The Challenge of Exploring Venus is all about. | Lead | Ineffective |
e4e6c8506a92 | CAE63BBF4546 | First of all,
Earth, Venus , Mars are like neighbor that orbits the sun at different speeds. | Claim | Ineffective |
265509d71438 | CAE63BBF4546 | The differences in speed that we are closer to Mars than other times to Venus. Venus is sometimes right around the corner in space terms. Humans has numerous spacecraft to land on this cloud -draped world. Since no spacecraft survived the landing for more tha a few hours. | Evidence | Adequate |
226d88a1a03a | CAE63BBF4546 | Secondly, The thick atmosphere is almost 97% of carbon dioxide that blankets Venus. | Claim | Ineffective |
eed4c83a13e7 | CAE63BBF4546 | The more challenging are the clouds of highly sulfuric acid in Venus's atmosphere. The planet's temps are average over 800 degrees Fahrenheit. The atmospheric pressure is 90 times greater than our own planet. The conditions on Earth are far more extreme than anything humans encounter. | Evidence | Adequate |
dbde4f5a5efe | CAE63BBF4546 | Thirdly,
NASA has one particularly compelling ideas to send humans to study Venus. | Claim | Ineffective |
d3b2ce9b2ecc | CAE63BBF4546 | NASA's solution to the hostile conditions on the surface of Venus allow scientist to float above the fray. Researchers cannot take samples of rock, gas, or anything else, from a distance. Many researchers are working on innovations that allows our machines to last long enough to knowledge Venus. NASA is working on other approaches to study Venus. | Evidence | Adequate |
37365368e4eb | CAE63BBF4546 | In a conclusion, Do you know what the challenge of Exploring Venus is? Well, Earth, Venus , Mars are like neighbor that orbits the sun at different speeds. The thick atmosphere is almost 97% of carbon dioxide that blankets Venus. NASA has one particularly compelling ideas to send humans to study Venus. So however, I just exploring about Venus so I think I past the challenge. | Concluding Statement | Ineffective |

41d812bec841 | CAE7D71D66A3 | To be allowed to be in extracurricular activities, you must be a student in good standing. Which means you need to be passing all your classes in order to do anything before of after school. This rule makes students strive to have better grades so that they are able to participate. | Evidence | Effective |
2c7e7085c49b | CAE7D71D66A3 | There are mostly benefits when it comes to having this addition to the schools policy, it would be a very smart thing to put in place.

7d6dcb7c67cf | CB66B685DAF6 | It's good because it could distract them from all the negative things going on in the school . Being athletic sets a good look on you especially if your good at the sport , its also a good way to make friends . It also helps to get focus off of so many things . Doing sports makes you only have to focus on keeping your grade to stay in that sport . It may also be good for stress it could possibly relieve it and it makes you feel great . | Evidence | Adequate |
