Personally, I enjoyed every presentation that was presented today. It amazed me how much fake news is out there on the internet. Everyone can post anything and you can convince anyone with mislead info. You gotta be careful out there. #RHUB100

Soll introduces his text by telling a situation of how the spreading of fake news caused the tortured and arrest of a Jewish community. I can relate this example to what was said in class today. Fake news can lead to false assumptions. #RHUB100

My writing process on essay #3 has been very organized. I still need to edit my sources and how they connect to Caplan’s claim. #RHUB100

[Edson Mosqueda @EdsonMosqueda]

In Caplan’s article, “What’s College Good For”, he argues that education is not leading students to skills that would be useful in the labor market. Although that is true, many jobs still require a college degree #RHUB100

[Edson Mosqueda @EdsonMosqueda]

@AliQadirzada @JRobH1988 That does support Ramsey’s idea. Also they make the exact same points on going to college or not #RHUB100

[Edson Mosqueda @EdsonMosqueda]

https://t.co/rO9v39mtL0 Emma Kerr’s assumption supports Ramsey’s assumption that college is only worth it if you know what you want to do since they both talk about the alternatives to college. #RHUB100

[Edson Mosqueda @EdsonMosqueda]

Assumptions are just straight forward statements about what you believe towards a certain topic. By providing valid/relevant evidence, your argument can become stronger and your assumption can be closer to true. #RHUB100

[Edson Mosqueda @EdsonMosqueda]

In Defilippis and Hughes’ article, “The Myth Behind Defensive Gun Ownership,” the authors start their article by sharing tragedies that have happened involving guns. This makes the audience feel guilt which is a use of pathos. #RHUB100

@AliQadirzada @JRobH1988 these strategies can be more appealing to the audience and can make an argument stronger #RHUB100

[Edson Mosqueda @EdsonMosqueda]

I understand rhetorical strategies are key elements in an argument because they can make or break it. Having credibility as a author(ethos), Reaching the audience’s feelings(pathos), and using facts and stats (logos) make an argument powerful. #RHUB100

[Edson Mosqueda @EdsonMosqueda]

@BethanyAndy Their assumptions really show their true view on a certain topic. When they are clearly stated, the argument is then framed for the audience to see. #RHUB100

[Edson Mosqueda @EdsonMosqueda]

@NathanA68624225 The author’s assumption was hidden within the argument and the reader could analyze the article to see what the assumptions were. #RHUB100

[Edson Mosqueda @EdsonMosqueda]

Assumptions seems to be very broad yet they are simple and get straight to the point of the author’s view. As an audience member, assumptions are either true or false depending on your view on a certain argument. #RHUB100

[Edson Mosqueda @EdsonMosqueda]

@AliQadirzada @JRobH1988 The rhetoric is very helpful when it comes to seeing how the author using his strategies to persuade his audience #RHUB100

I stand with Sandel on whether or not we should genetically modify our kids. I agree with what he says about how we should let our children grow freely and not with a path created by the parents. Although Harris says that genetic modification is beneficial, I believe nature is.

[Edson Mosqueda @EdsonMosqueda]

@SantasLilBitch3 John Harris has more strengths than weaknesses in his argument. His rhetoric writing is so inclusive which makes his claim stronger and clearer.

[Edson Mosqueda @EdsonMosqueda]

@mikkel_bituin I agree with you. I believe that by using other point of views, Harris doesn’t come off as bias which can increase his chances on persuading his audience. #RHUB100

[Edson Mosqueda @EdsonMosqueda]

In John Harris’s article, “Enhancements as a Moral Obligation”, Harris aims at an audience who might think genetic manipulation is morally wrong. He also uses counter arguments so he doesn’t come off as bias. #RHUB100
