Rhetorical Analysis Of 2016

In their article, Students Step up to Lead Tech Implementation at Their Elementary School, Taryn Handlon and Tiffany Costa write about how TechXpert all started with an idea for prominent engagement. The Roosevelt Elementary School in Park Ridge, Illinois, had begun implementing new tools such as Chromebooks, Spheros, Dash and Dots, Cubelets, Snap Circuits, Osmos, Marble Mazes and a 3D printer to the classrooms, which highlighted the schools desire to collaborate technology with learning. This would not only transform the whole classroom environment, but also open the door for young students to explore computer science and technical engineering. The only issue seemed to be that teachers had no time to educate themselves on the tools and how

When you see a solider in his or her uniform, you are proud that they are serving this country to protect our freedom, securing our country, and defending democracy worldwide. The solider can come from different branches of the Military. The one you might be familiar with is the U.S. Army. These soldiers are well respected and prepared to serve our country whenever and wherever needed, combat-ready at all times, and trained to counter any threat, anywhere. In 2007, the United States Army department published a recruitment ad for U.S.

In the article “Requiem for Real News” written by Chris Hedges, Hedges makes an argument that society is losing expertise with the news now changing from print to online. The change from print to online is also causing a change in what is deemed news. Upon first look on this article, this argument seems to be effective; however, the argument is not effective. While Hedges has some strong pieces of pathos like when provoking anger in the audience of the working men and women towards corporations and use of cause and effect strategy, extended definitions, and comparisons to logically make an argument that corporations want the public to be in the blind, Hedges fails to present enough ethos to back up his argument which ultimately causes his article to become an ineffective argument.

I, Roger Smith, am bringing this petition to light to portray how America treats its minorities. The irony of how America is lauded to be this liberal and free country meanwhile they forced and dragged African Americans into a life of slavery and inhumane treatment. Husbands, wives, even children are being taken away from their families by force to obey white supremacy. This is the kind of power that creates this sort of hierarchy and damages the meaning of what a liberal tradition should resemble.

In Bj Gallagher’s article “Donald Trump Is the Epitome of Everything the World Detests -- And Admires -- About America”(Sep.2, 2015), She Implies the positive and negative attributes in Donald Trump, and whether you should vote for him or not. Gallagher first demonstrates by showing the negatives of Donald Trump and his “arrogance” in an article written by Paul Thomas; Gallagher then argued the positive, admirable side of him by comparing his life to one we would all like to live, and to conclude she suggests that Trump is a “fresh breath of air” for millions of Americans by demonstrate that he is unique compared to past presidential leaders. Her purpose is to surpass his brash ego in order to to show he is worth putting your trust in.

The presidential race for the 2016 election are in full effect. The candidates are campaigning hard and debating on various issues all for one thing the chance to become the next president of the United States. The reason people vote is to make a change. In order to win, they must convince voters that they are the best for the job, a part of a politician's job is to address issues. How do the candidates successfully do this? By the use of rhetoric, whether it be through oration, discourse debates, television, or radio political advertisements. A rhetorical situation has three components exigence, audience, constraints. According to Bitzer in order to have a rhetorical situation you must be addressing an issue, or else there is no 'situation'.

Although there are many candidates in the presidential campaign of 2016, we citizens focus most on Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. They both make efforts to demonstrate ethos or credibility in their presidential bios. Furthermore, they both stress their reputations/expertise and authority to persuade the people that they are worthy to lead the nation. As Republican Secretary of State Henry Kissinger had stated in Hillary’s bio, she “ ran the State Department in the most effective way that I’ve ever seen.” From this feedback, she showed that she can work under the conditions of the government and still go over expectations. This is a valuable skill that is claimed useful for a president and in the end, she is capable

The audience to which this paper is directed towards is the college aged baseball fan in America. They are interested in the game and love to go to the ballpark to watch a game, and if they can’t make it to the game they will try to watch it on TV or catch some of the highlights. They hear the stories about steroids and the various scandals, but don't possess a deep understanding of them. My audience’s attitude towards my culture is admiration for the players and teams. However, likely objections could include the steroid scandals and some fans may be hesitant to accept the fact the these players makes huge salaries each year. Professional baseball players come from all over the world, so while it is likely that my audience share similar backgrounds

A rhetorical aim that illustrates that issues on gun control would be to analyze and interpret. Suggested from the two articles; “Why the U.S. is No. 1 – in mass shootings”, and Not just guns: New study looks at why the U.S. is No. 1 in mass shootings, most mass shootings are a result of the deteriorating American Dream. The rhetorical aim, analyze and interpret”, offer readers a different approach on a specific subject matter. For instance, prior to reading the two texts on America’s advancing gun control issues, it was believed that mental illness would be the root cause for mass shootings. However, these two articles have offered different insight on why America is the leading country of mass shootings. Fame, can persuade Americans into

In “Bring Back Flogging”, Jeff Jacoby addresses the problems within America 's criminal justice system. He gives many reasons why imprisonment simply does not work, and suggests that corporal punishment should be used as an alternative. Published in the Boston Globe, a newspaper well known for being liberal, Jacoby provides a conservative view and directs his argument towards those who strongly support imprisonment and view corporal punishment to be highly barbaric and inhumane. However, in order to shed light on our current situation, Jacoby discusses the dangers that we face though our criminal justice system a nd shows concern that imprisonment is doing more harm than good. In effect, Jacoby looks to the past for solutions, and

The separation of church and state is an ongoing debate that effects everyone, even if you are not aware of it. There are many arguments to this debate, and both sides are heavily supported. I will be analyzing two sources that support the separation of church and state but used two different forms of rhetoric to support the separation.

Studying abroad will provide me the unique experience of learning a language from the perspective of one of the many cultures that employs it. Nuances that are difficult to convey in a classroom will, hopefully, come to my attention naturally. We see similar methods of immersion learning everywhere. For example, if one wants to develop a rudimentary level of understanding of the culture surrounding a type of music, they can start by looking up the music and listening to

In response to Geoffrey Shepherd's article “It’s clear the US should not have bombed Hiroshima and Nagasaki”. Shepard tries to pull us into his claim by using pathos, logos, and ethos. He uses estimates of 500,000 Japanese soldiers died from the atomic bomb. Then Geoffrey begins to state that we had an alternative spot to drop the bombs, the alternate spot we could’ve dropped the bomb would have been Tokyo Bay. It was idle and estimated that less lives would’ve been taken and would showed more of a threat to the Japanese leaders.

Breaking stereotypes: we live to be different and at the same time, attempt to fit in with the way society dictates. Usually a few people out of certain groups of people who live and do things differently than our standard perspective, we put those groups of people, (after judging only a few), in the proverbial nutshell known as stereotype. Stereotyping is an indication of one group of people exhibiting superiority over another group of people usually by some sort of negative connotation that undermines their values. Intercultural relationships helps to break down these type of negative actions allowing for a different perspective and a better understanding. (Trulymadly, 2014)

Some of the reasons to learn about a different culture are when people choose to live in another country or they are forced to immigrate to other places for security purposes. Learning about a new culture means that people will keep their own culture
