Diagramming Arguments for Study



On the left is a picture of a type of argument diagram.
Douglas N. Walton uses the araucaria program, but I don't use it as much as I use this type of  form mixed with flowcharting conventions by hand. I use the software sometimes, but I mostly do diagrams using the tools I already know.
Here are a couple of links to PDF Documents by Walton explaining what diagramming arguments is good for.
