Week 9 Blog
For your blog post for week 9, please choose one sample argumentative essay from the models in Chapter 3 Argument or Chapter 64 Argument Readings in your HWA textbook. When you are done, please respond to the essay's argument in a 150 word min. post where you will identify and analyze the essay's use of the three rhetorical appeals (appeals to ethos, pathos, and logos). In addition, make sure to respond to the following questions. Do you find the argument to be a strong one? Are there weak points? Pay close attention to the use of outside sources and how the student incorporates quotes/paraphrases to support his/her points. Do the sources seem credible? How can you tell?
