The only one I got wrong is I put that "ISIS lost a significant portion of its territory in Iraq and Syria in 2017." as opinion
because what is or isn't significant is opinion
Do I have brain problems?
I mean, probably not?
If it just said "lost a portion" I'd have put fact, but I still feel that "significant portion" makes it opinion
I think the lost territory makes it factual.
You can prove that or not.
You can't prove it's a significant amount
Maybe I believe that the only significant amount is 90%+ and they only lost 80%
I can kinda see your point
And I think it was an error on approach.
Now try the superior version. http://pbskids.org/arthur/games/factsopinions/
10/10. 😁
either that or statistically speaking you're a low down democrat. Surely that's not the case, right?
God I hope not
(I actually had to scroll through the scene because there exist no screenshots of that face....)
AHA
10/10
I still say that my 9/10 is the superior score
Nope
Significant just means a large portion
I'd say that's 50 to 90 %
So it wouldn't be a significant portion if it were 49%?
I'd consider that a significant portion of anything
Well, that too
Okay, I'd say....30 to 80?
If America lost 10% of its land to Mexico would that be insignificant?
The problem here is that there *is* no concrete number that people could agree on as significant. That makes it opinion.
oh i got 10/10
@Schedrevka that would be insignificant, yes
I'm taking this up with the teacher and getting all of your grades lowered
On the international scale, 10% isnt significant
Same with ISIS
I **REALLY** don't think most people would agree with you that it'd be insignificant for Mexico to take a whole state away
Heh it's significant emotionally, sure
And people will be angry, yes
But it'd be insignificant in scale
But that is opinion. That is the whole point. It is a matter of opinion where the threshold of significance starts and ends
I found that to be an interesting bit of data from their quiz
