d714001d66c2 | F0AA6B265B6F | This is a challenge that many home school students have had to face but they are better equipped to solve this problem.

This works for the typically wealthier home school students whose families can afford an extra room in ... | Evidence | Effective |
db8af6afb7ee | F0AA6B265B6F | The implementation of online schooling would destroy one of the greatest aspects of traditional schooling, the "learning environment". | Claim | Effective |
27ef2a3c3207 | F0AA6B265B6F | Many supporters of online education say that it significantly reduces the chances of social problems that arrive from traditional schooling such as bullying. | Counterclaim | Effective |
184c3b08e181 | F0AA6B265B6F | There are two main fallacies in this argument: first, that bullying can still happen outside of school; and second, that this sheltering makes it easier for bullying to occur later in life. | Rebuttal | Effective |
dd77b7cc1c14 | F0AA6B265B6F | Cyberbullying has become an ever greater threat to students and schools have been largely unequipped to deal with the problem head on.

56f646b9ff82 | F0AA6B265B6F | Online education as a whole may appear promising in its abilities to "level the playing field" but it instead, if implemented, would result in a regression on many of the fronts; namely: physical school resources, after school activities, and the benefits from a dedicated school building. This would make the "playing f... | Concluding Statement | Effective |
811441a5066a | F0E863BDEB82 | In this essay, I will be discussing the non-existence of ancient Martians that theorists claim to be real because of a land formation that lots of people so passionately call "the Face". | Position | Adequate |
c97415e737fe | F0E863BDEB82 | First and formost, Martians have been wafting around the population; because of the amount of time it has been around and all of the conspiracy, this has lead many conspirarists to go to extremes to prove that anything that anyone can believe in is real. | Evidence | Ineffective |
83f530d73868 | F0E863BDEB82 | For instance, now people are starting to prove that aliens are real because of a big face-shaped mountain on Mars. | Counterclaim | Adequate |
4c65310c32dd | F0E863BDEB82 | This is, of course, completely absurd to say the very least, due to the lack of evidence they have in corrispondence to the large amount of evidence that we at NASA already have. | Rebuttal | Adequate |
955ad984ac3d | F0E863BDEB82 | Really though-- all they have are sci-fi movies, fiction novels, and talk-shows-- when we have already proven that it is obviously just an odd formation (that with shadows, angles, and imagination) just looks like a face. After the Mars Global Surveyor flew by Cydonia one day in April, it was completely proven to be ju... | Evidence | Adequate |
6e79f861ebed | F0E863BDEB82 | So, that was the complete and utter proof that this so-called "Face" was just a big rock in the end. | Concluding Statement | Adequate |
