We discussed about the validity of evidences this week. We have our flag ceremony and a recap of our previous lesson this week. To begin, we must define the terms evidence, listening, analysis, and thesis. What exactly is evidence? It is a collection of data that reveals if a belief or proposition is true or genuine, allowing us to trust the evidence.

Comprehensive or Active listening is used to understand the message of a speaker, like when attending a classroom lecture. Lastly, Critical or analytical listening is used to evaluate a message for purpose of accepting or rejecting it, just like the campaign speech of a political candidate, and focuses on evaluating whe
