Strong arguments is when the argument has strong believable premises but the conclusion may be false or hard to believe. So an argument with strong sources and support but with a false conclusion may be considered a strong argument. Where valid arguments are when the premises and the conclusion are both true. Valid arguments can also be false, in that both the premises and conclusion are false.
An example of a strong argument would be "Taylor has the flu. I spent the day with Taylor now I have the flu. I got the flu from Taylor." It is a strong argument because the premises are true and strong but the conclusion may be false. The person may or may not have gotten the flu from elsewhere.
An example of a valid argument would be "The mall closes at 7PM on Mondays. Right now it's 8PM. The mall is currently closed." The Premises are all true and the conclusion is true, making it a valid argument.
