The Power of Persuasion (Unit Recap)

From Week 2-4 we went through a unit on Persuasive Speeches, culminating in your presentations for your Social Advocacy projects. Here's a brief recap of what we've gone through.

1) Thank You For Smoking, use of logos/pathos/ethos.

2) Rhetorical devices worksheet - Examining a list of rhetorical devices that could be utilised for a more impactful speech.

3) Practice analysing the Obama speech.

4) Social Advocacy Presentations - Utilising what we have covered in this unit, along with your content from last term's Social Advocacy proposal, you made a presentation meant to persuade the listener to adopt your proposal. This was your assessment for this unit.
