This document provides guidance on organizing persuasive arguments using classical rhetorical structures or modern marketing approaches. It discusses gathering an audience's attention, providing context, outlining an argument's thesis and parts, making and supporting claims, refuting counterarguments, and closing with a compelling appeal. An example debate topic on nuclear weapons possession is used to illustrate how to plan an argument by identifying knowledge gaps, structuring an outline with classical elements, and determining the most persuasive reasons and evidence for the intended audience. The key is to understand an audience and frame an argument in a way that convinces others they already agree with one's position.
Visualizing arguments
The document outlines an argument that it is wasteful for the city of Chicago to destroy confiscated weapons. The argument claims that the confiscated weapons, estimated to be worth $2 million, could provide funds for the city's needs rather than being destroyed. Evidence includes that the city already sells other confiscated contraband. The argument acknowledges the common belief in Chicago that more guns lead to more violence, but notes that nationally crime rates have declined as gun ownership has increased, suggesting guns in lawful citizens' hands may not cause increased harm.
What it says.what it does
Lincoln recalls the founding of the United States based on principles of liberty and equality. He refers to the ongoing Civil War and how its outcome will determine whether a nation founded on these principles can long endure. Lincoln cites the battle at Gettysburg as the reason for dedicating a memorial to those who died there defending these founding principles of the nation.
Ideas in writing 2019
The document provides tips for effective writing. It emphasizes using concrete examples, sensory details, metaphors, and stories to show rather than just tell. Allusions and references should be understandable to the intended audience. The creative process takes time and may involve preparation, incubation of ideas, illumination of solutions, and verification. Overall it stresses showing ideas vividly through specific examples, descriptions, and comparisons rather than vague statements to improve writing.
Evidence on q3
This document provides guidance and examples for writing high-scoring responses on the AP English Language and Composition exam. It discusses the importance of including evidence and commentary in arguments. It provides examples of introductions and body paragraphs from 4-point scored responses. It also includes prompts for students to practice developing their own arguments and evidence, including brainstorming counterarguments and writing an introduction and body paragraph.
Emotional argumentation 2019
This document discusses different rhetorical strategies for emotional argumentation, including appeals to emotion, framing, and rhetorical figures. It provides examples of different types of appeals to emotion such as appeals to hope, fear, pity, guilt, ridicule, disgust, consequences, flattery, and spite. It also discusses conceptual metaphors, framing devices, and rhetorical figures like repetition figures, antithesis, tricolon, chiasmus, and paralipsis that can be used to emotionally engage an audience.
English 12 intro
This document outlines the curriculum and expectations for a 12th grade English class. The class is divided into 4 quarters, with each quarter focusing on different skills like reading, writing, speaking, and humanities. For quarter one, students will do independent reading, reflective essays, and learn about philosophy. Quarters two through four will cover dystopian literature, creative writing, research papers, public speaking, and analyzing plays and philosophy. The document also lists class expectations around grading, supplies, cellphone policy, and how students and the teacher should treat each other with respect.
Rhetoric intro 2019
This document provides a brief history of rhetoric and discusses its origins in ancient Greece. It notes that rhetoric referred to public speaking and involves persuading others. It mentions important early rhetoricians like Tisias and Corax in Sicily and Aristotle, who wrote about the rhetorical triangle of logos, ethos, and pathos. The document then provides four examples of situations and asks the reader to analyze them according to the rhetorical triangle.
