The Three Appeals

We look at the following powerpoint:

http://fyc.usf.edu/Documents%20Social%20and%20Political%20Arguments/Logos%20Ethos%20Pathos%20Powerpoint.ppt from here.

You do the handout.

You get out your draft from yesterday. Either label items in the draft that already are examples of pathos, ethos or logos, OR make notes ON the draft about possible ways to ADD IN material that would be employing the three rhetorical appeals.

You are writing this paper in order to inform your audience about the problem AND to persuade us to care about it and help solve it.

Homework:
 
1. Have Draft 2 ready for tomorrow.
 
2. TWFTD: rhetorical in OED.
