AWA Strategy
Analysis of an issue

  1. Digest the points.
  2. Make notes of the points against the issue and for the issue.
  3. Decide whether you are for the issue or against it.
  4. Decide which of the points which weaken or strengthen the issue.
  5. Group the points if possible under major heads.
  6. Use key words such as therefore, hence, etc, to indicate that you are about to conclude the issue.
  7. Each paragraph should consist of at least 4-5 lines
  8. The issue should consist of at least 5 – 6 paras, an introduction and a conclusion. Skip a line after every paragraph.

Organization of the essay

  1. In one line, summarize the issue that has been given or make a general statement as to the issue with one line each for and against the issue.
  2. The second line states the position with the phrases such as – “closed examination of the issue reveals that”, “it is unreasonable to say that”, etc
  3. Change paragraphs. From here each paragraph is to be used to cover one idea or a related ideas that can be grouped in the same paragraph, such as inter – personnel relations, productivity, etc.. At the same time it can also cover the topics that are against the issue. But it is also essential to state why you do not agree with it. Conclude the reasoning after each paragraph.
  4. Summarize all the major arguments that have been advanced for the issue and also the position, in the last paragraph


Analysis of an argument

  1. Read the argument. Thrash out all the assumptions, and incoherent reasoning i.e. where one to one correlation given in the question does not hold
  2. The first paragraph should start by stating the conclusion and also the arguments that have been put forward to support it. For instance, the writer concludes that …… because … the conclusion relies on the assumption for which there is no clear evidence, or the argument is based on unsubstantiated assumptions or poor reasoning.
  3. Each paragraph then should cover the assumption or the faulty correlation that has been drawn between the variables.
