A Venn Diagram is a way of visually representing the elements of an argument. Why do we diagram arguments? For many, seeing helps connect ideas and concepts that can be complex and difficult to grasp. By understanding the elements and components visually we are better able to critically build and understand an argument. For this week’s discussion, you will find one (1) Venn Diagram and perform the given exercise:

Discuss what the Venn Diagram is trying to communicate. Focus on an analysis of the chosen Venn Diagram instead of just describing it.
Explain why the Venn Diagram is effective or not effective.
Include the Venn Diagram or a link to it in your post so others can see it.
