Cuyamaca College Knowledge Is Power Essay
Description
Prompt:
Write an essay in which you evaluate AND compare the authors’ arguments. As always, this does not mean that you will agree or disagree with the arguments. (You should not be focusing on the issue re-opening schools; you should be focusing on the way they present their arguments and the rhetorical strategies they use or logical fallacies they commit). You should not comment on the actual arguments but rather focus on how well/effectively those arguments are written or developed.
You will want to explain each rhetorical choice for each of your sources, give descriptions or examples, and explain why the author(s) made that particular choice. Your thesis for this paper should focus on which is more effective in convincing the audience if its claims.
In order to analyze the argument, you will consider and compare/contrast both authors’ use of:
- Pathos
- Ethos
- Logos
- Assumptions
- Logical fallacies
- Tone
- Types/Strength of evidence
- Objectivity/Bias
