Editing Time

I return your summary/evaluation/response papers.

In your daybook:

1. What was one strength of your paper?

2. What was one weakness of the paper?

3. Based on this paper, what should you pay attention to as you edit today's Problem/Solution draft?

We look at the grading grid for the Problem/ Solution paper, and you work on your draft using Turnitin, if it is working for you.

Homework:

1. Go  to the Pathos/Ethos/Logos Forum. You must reply to the person's post directly BELOW yours on the page.

Read their example; reply to their post with "AGREE" or "DISAGREE" or "I DON'T UNDERSTAND" in your subject line. Then in  your post, explain why if you disagree.

If you agree that their example fits, rewrite their example with some change that makes it more persausive from your point of view.

If you don't understand their post, you supply an example that would fit their topic. Treat this as a quiz to see whether you understand the meanings of Pathos, Ethos and Logos.

2. Final Version Problem/Solution due Friday. Daybooks also.

3.  No word today.

Draft 2 Problem/ Solution Paper

How about changing "Science" to "Life"?

Thinkwrite: Persuasion -- and problem solving -- is often about changing your mind. Can you think of a time recently when you DID change your mind or your behavior? How did that happen?

Print one copy of your Draft #2. Exchange. 

Upload your draft to Turnitin in the Problem/ Solution section of our class in Moodle.

Homework:

1. Be working on your Problem/ Solution paper. Final Version due Friday.

2. TWFTD: persuade (verb) in OED

Persuasion

You watched a Prezi about using Google to search. Let's all google the terms logos, pathos, ethos.

We compare results....

Quiz question: How do we change those results (according to the Prezi)?


Now, you read about them. You think about them.

You go to our class in Moodle and submit an example of persuasion happening using each one in the Logos, Ethos and Pathos Forum. Try to make up an example that would fit with the topic of your current paper.



Homework:

1. Draft 2 of your Problem/ Solution paper is due tomorrow. It should have all the analysis of the problem done (causes and effects) AND careful discussion of the solutions (strengths and weaknesses). Are you persuading us to care about and help solve this problem?

2. TWFTD:  logos, ethos and pathos (can all be in one quote)
