this comic was very interesting in the way that they put the ideas rhetoric into comic form
I was able to understand rhetoric better through this comic because it gave visual to looks at as well as examples to explain each rhetorical element
ethos
the credibility of the author and what they say. To see if they what they are saying can be believed
pathos
the use of emotion in debates or argument
logos
the appeal to reason
kairos I am still a little confused about
I was questioning how rhetoric’s connect to engineering and how to use rhetoric’s in my writing
this reading reminds of me of the assignments that i did last semester in freshman English and how the things i learned about the rhetorical situation relates to this
I look back at my essay from last semester and I see how I used pathos in my political cartoon. i appealed to the emotion of the reader. Keep in mind to use my writing from last semester as reference for this course if possible
