Rhetorical Appeals in Language
Topic: Rhetorical Appeals in Language
Essential Question/Focus: How might we examine an author's use of rhetorical appeals in developing Big Ideas in a resource?
As we build on an author's use of Rhetorical Appeals to convince an audience, consider the resources below. Use the note-catching/note-making tools (Four Square note catcher or Cornell Note document) to capture Big Ideas as you explore the resources to build knowledge.
Consider CHOOSING ONE of the texts as your main focus:
How might you summarize the BIG IDEAS?
What rhetorical appeals does the author utilize?
To what extent are the appeals useful or effective in developing the BIG IDEAS?
Is the author's credibility enhanced through the use of the rhetorical appeals you outlined/discussed above?
Resources:
Is Too Much Technology Bad for Students?
How Your Smartphone Affects your Brain and Body
Your Task:
Having created your original blog based on the resource you have chosen, edit your blog to ensure that it is free of basic errors. In preparation for your blog to be assessed, please review our blog rubric to make adjustments to your work.
