Article analysis and discussion

THE TASK IS TO DO A DETAILED ANALYSIS ON THE ATTACHED ARTICLE (RAP AND MORAL CHARACTER) FOLLOWING THE FORMAT SPECIFIED IN THE INSTRUCTIONS FILE AND SAMPLE ANALYSIS POWERPOINT. 

THE STEPS ARE AS FOLLOWS:

 Step 1. Read, annotate, and clarify the passage. Identify purpose and conclusion, annotate the passage, clarify key concepts and claims. This part draws in large part on the first module of the course. 

Step 2. Portray the basic argument structure: Write a short synopsis. Identify main argument, identify sub-arguments, supply missing premises, represent the entire argument in an arrow diagram. 

Step 3. Assess the argument. This is the main part of the assignment—it draws on the second and the third module of the course. REPRESENT THE ARGUMENT IN AN ARROW DIAGRAM. Once the argument represented in an arrow diagram, identify the deductive arguments and check their validity, identify the inductive or abductive arguments and check their strength, identify any fallacies. Challenge questionable claims, concepts, or conclusions. 

Step 4. Assess the strength of the argument overall. Present your analysis in a 1-2 page discussion at the end of the assignment.
