I agree with Rob Willer’s idea that one can get a person on their side of an argument if they relate to that persons morals. I believe morals are some of our strongest values in life which is why it’s so important to apply that in order to persuade someone. #RHUB200
@AlianaMayer I could definitely relate to this as my topic is about the SAT and I've only really heard bad things about it. But yes definitely has increased my research skills!
I feel somewhat confident about my annotated bibliography. I know that I have my APA citations done correctly although I hope I included everything in the summaries of my citations. #RHUB200
Argument: The SAT has been around for as long as we can remember. The SAT is not an accurate representation of a students academic success. It should not be used in college admissions. #RHUB200
https://t.co/EqYTaMxzlb The essay topic I have chosen is about the SAT and college admissions. This article talks about how the SAT only tests students to some capacity rather than for their full academic success.
LaPierre's speech does not show empathy at all and is only speaking directly to his audience of gunowners which makes his argument fail to convey his message to other groups. This in my opinion weakens his argument. #RHUB200
@that_0ne_nick I agree with this, I did not see much sympathy for the victims in his speech which in my opinion could of been an important part to include in his speech.
Wayne LaPierre uses ethos when saying “how do we protect our children?” this helps him unify his audience as one. As well, he blames gun violence on video games claiming that the other side of the NRA looks passed violent video games instead of taking responsibility. #rhub200
