Examples as evidence
Providing examples to support your point is crucial to making a convincing argument. Depending on what you're studying, examples could be:
- quotes from a literary text
- quotes from primary sources
- quotes from websites, blogs or forums
- images, paintings or photographs
- charts, graphs or statistics
- quotes or summaries from the media, like news articles, films, or documentaries
- a personal experience.
Quotes show that the ideas in your essay are more than just your opinion.
