Hello Class,
You must begin blogging by July 1st.
I've decided that I do not want you to begin analyzing the use of rhetorical strategies in the works of others until we've begun class. While I do want you to be able to define and recognize the differing appeals and rhetorical devices, it's a good idea to begin analyzing together in class before you do it on your own. For this reason, I've opted to eliminate assignment #3.
This leaves assignment # 1 and # 2. Regarding assignment # 2, you may stop at page 93. However, keep in mind that I will assign the remainder of the book during the first weeks of school; therefore, if you wish, you can go a little further. You will be responsible for learning all for rhetorical devices as they are vital to the course.
As always, you may contact me if you have any questions.
Ms. Hampton
