An Objective claim is something that can be proven. It can occur in instances such as a factual matter for example something that is either true or false. It can be proven right or wrong in a matter of fact.
Discuss what a Subjective claim is:
A Subjective claim is something that is not factual and can't be solved using true or false. Instead it’s a based on opinion, or personal preface and what the person’s beliefs are. This is something that can not be proven right or wrong.
Example of an Objective Claim:
Atoms are made of electrons and protons. For example this can taken true or false or right or wrong using our modern day science theories and technologies
Example of a Subjective Claim:
Facebook would be valued at 100 million dollars if it were to go public- This is something that is based on everyone’s person opinion, belief and personal preference.
You explained the definitions to the claims precisely and clearly. I completely understood the definitions once I read over your blog.
ReplyDeleteAs for the subjective claim you made about Facebook, is it really an opinion that the site is worth 100 million dollars or has it been proven to be worth 100 million dollars. I could imagine it being proven true because the site has been such a success. Although it may be worth alot of money no one knows for sure how much to the cent what the site is worth. Good example! :)
You used a great example for an objective claim. That is definitely a statement that can be proven with scientific facts and evidence.
