Writing a deductive essay is like playing a game of Clue.
The person has different concepts with a set of specific clues
and now must make an assumption as to what is happening. In
the game of Clue the players know the different rooms (settings),
knows the different players (the characters in the game of
clue), knows the circumstances (such as the weapons in the
game of Clue), and then they must make an assumption as to
what has happened. The players in the game of Clue keep making
assumptions until the game is over. Deductive essays take
the individual factors, weighs these against what they know,
and then makes the assumption. The three parts to a deductive
essay are premises (the argument), evidence (information available),
and conclusion (the assumption).
