This has been a topic of interest to me for a few years and I always have a lot to say about it. Both of these sentences are good examples of the difference between descriptive and prescriptive claims. Even after writing my post about the these claims I was still able to better understand the difference from how you described it.Rubyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13781725257441184374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2525281203603243328.post-73689688211362603132010-09-04T14:42:38.206-07:002010-09-04T14:42:38.206-07:00I also wrote a post about descriptive and prescrip...I also wrote a post about descriptive and prescriptive claims. The example you used for descriptive claims was a perfect example because it was clearly a "what is" claim and it does not say what should be. I liked that you used a current event as an example. The example is very true and all students know that. The example you used for prescriptive claims was also a solid example. I agree with you that schools should not suffer as much due to the budget cuts. The example you used definitely exercises value judgement. All in all this was a clear post with great examples.ATHOOPShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11804696286744189614noreply@blogger.com
