1) Choose two recent advertisements (advertisement or public awareness campaigns that include a few related advertisements) as possible subjects for your rhetorical analysis. Make sure to choose advertisements with accessible texts (written words, visuals or movie files that can be found on the Internet, etc), because you should be able to examine the advertisement in detail. You need to choose two possible ads. If topics overlap, two classmates can write on the same subject; that way we can see two different students’ approaches to an ad. However, we don’t want to have more than two essays on the same topic, since we’d like originality and variety.
2) Make a list of examples of logos, ethos, and pathos in the advertisements of your choosing.
3) Provide a visual image or web link to the advertisements in your blog post (your visual or link doesn't have to be the original text, but we'd like to have an idea from your blog post about your object of analysis).
4) Bring a printed copy of this prewriting to the class (you may complete your prewriting in MS Word, print a copy for class, and copy and paste its content to your blog for presentation in class).
5) Come to Thursday's class ready to briefly present and discuss your blog post with the class.
