Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A two-sided argument presents both sides of an issue and acknowledges opposing claims. This can be effective with a highly educated audience who is likely to be aware of opposing views and may require a more nuanced argument. A one-sided argument may not be as effective in these situations as it can come across as one-dimensional or lacking in credibility. Moral or emotional arguments may also be effective, but they may not always be appropriate or relevant to the specific topic being discussed. A structured argument is a vague term and does not provide enough information to determine its effectiveness.
