What I want to learn this semester!
Sulin Halil
This week in Professor Waits English 1302 1st Period class, we did not reflect on the readings, as there was no readings for this week. However, we did discuss the syllabus and future assignments for this semester and the textbook required, which is Everything’s An Argument With Readings 7th Edition. We also discussed rhetorical and argumentative language. This semester I would like to learn more about how to improve my communication skills within my writing.
I have noticed examples of rhetorical language and argumentative language in my life. I found rhetoric and argument in persuasive advertisements, everyday speech, while reading books or watching movies. Rhetorical language includes questions and answers, along with problems and solutions.
Constructing my own Rhetorical Piece: Question/Problem: Should technology for students be limited? Solutions/Answers: Yes, because technology distracts students. No, because students can use technology to help them with schoolwork.
