This quarter, we will be focusing on the essential question how can persuasion and rhetoric be used to manipulate our sense of morality and perception of reality? We will be examining how we can use rhetoric in an argument essay to prove and convince a reader we are correct and also reading texts in which individuals use lies, deceit, and persuasion to play on people's sense of right and wrong.
To begin our unit, we discussed the process of developing the general outline of an argument essay. You can find the fill-in-the-blank notes and the slides to go with them below.
