This morning, we are going to discuss claims and

its types.

E. Discussing New Concepts and

Practicing New Skills
Claim - a claim is an arguable statement- an
idea that a rhetor (that is, a speaker or writer) asks
the audience to accept or an anticipation that they
should agree with it. It persuades, argues,
convinces, proves or provocatively suggests
something to a reader who may or may not initially
agree with you.

Here are three different examples of claim:

1. The status of the Philippine economy has
dropped due to Covid-19.

2.A constitutional provision on Racial

Discrimination needs to be strengthened in the
country.

3. Mobile Phones have been very beneficial than

computers during the pandemic.

There are three types of claims. The claim of fact,

claim of value, and claim of policy.

Claim of Fact – It is a claim that asserts some

empirical truth. It is something that can be
determined by careful observation of past,
present, or future.

Examples:
1. Smoking is dangerous to our health.
2. Global warming will impact future generations
and eventually ruin the environment.

Claim of Value – a claim that involves

subjective evaluations and moral
judgements.

Examples:
1. Face to face instruction is better than modular
distance learning.
2. Cheating during exams is wrong.

Claim of Policy – a claim that advocates courses of

action that must be undertaken.

Examples:
1. Schools should adopt a Reading Enhancement
Program.
2. Good Manners and Right Conduct needs to be
restored in the curriculum.

Do you have any questions or clarifications?

If none, let’s proceed to our activity.
