Deadline #8 HW # 5
Grammar Assignment
The grammar assignment I read was about poof reading. I got some good tips, and of course I'm going to share. 1Read your work backwards, one sentence at a time. 2 Read your work out loud, that way it easier to find your errors. 3 Always print out your work that way you can proofread off of paper, your more likely find your errors on paper. 4 Let your work sit for a while then come back then proofread. That way you have fresh eyes, and mind. 5 Last have someone else proofread your work, because you are going to miss something.
The assignment helped me a lot. I tend to have a lot of mistakes, every time.

Deadline #8 HW #1

Reading Reflection of Chapters #5, #6, and #8


Well let me first ask if anyone else syllabus read Chapter 8 Evaluations. Well mind did so I wasn't sure if I should read Chapter 8 Arguments of definition or Chapter 9 Evaluation. Oh well that's my confusion for the week.

Rhetorical Analysis: an examination of how well the components of an argument work together to persuade or move an audience. Rhetorical Question posed to raise an issue or create an effect rather than to get a response.

In chapter 5. shows you how to break down the argument, and see how it all connect together. Just like in our paper answering your audience questions, and hitting their right spot to persuade them to the issue, your main point. This chapter talks about Pathos, Ethos, Logs, statements, and poof. I also learned about Structuring Arguments. This chapter basically teaches about how to use Toulmin writing system. You learn the steps, Making a claim, reason, and warrants. Also supplying evidence, and of course backing up that evidence with facts.
