Overview of Unit 4
Rhetorical Analysis of a Commercial and Presentation
Rhetorical Analysis of a Written text vs. an Audiovisual
Brainstorming:
How analyzing a commercial might be similar to/different from analyzing an opinion article?
Discuss similarities and differences they notice between the two (Focus on the contents instead of the style/tone).
Academic Presentations vs. Writing
Go through a sample RA prezi presentation.
Discuss the following:
- What similarities and differences did you notice in the prezi presentation and the RA papers you read?
- Which part would you include and leave out if you were to present contents of paper you wrote?
