Dear students: Be industrious today! Use your time wisely to work on the following assignments.
FRIDAY TO-DO LIST:
1. PODS 2 and 3 (and 1 if you want to go deeper!)
MINI-PROJECT Mini-tune
Groups of 3-4
Share out your draft or verbally process your idea to your peers. Explain the rhetorical situation (THINK: triangle). Share which of the Aristotelian appeals your project seeks to focus on.
Peers ask questions and give feedback or suggestions to the projecteer. Essentially, have an organic, supportive conversation around the project that helps move each other forward.
2. IDEOLOGY JOURNAL #1 (DO THIS IN GOOGLE CLASSROOM!!!)
FIRST, ANSWER: Where do you believe you are on the American political spectrum? Where do you think your political ideology comes from? What values is it rooted in?
THEN: Take the Pew Research Center’s Political Typology Quiz
AFTER QUIZ: Add some thoughts to your journal entry. Did the Quiz confirm what you already believed to be true? How does the label sit with you?
3. Where do the parties stand on the issues? (GC OR PAPER)
Make a copy of this document, or ask Melissa for a hard copy. Try to fill out the T-chart to the best of your ability. Work with peers if you like, but keep your own notes. This will be due Monday @midnight.
4. Work on refining your Rhetorical Discourse Mini-Project
5. Honors: We will have a meeting on Monday October 19 about the two podcast episodes. Please finish them no later than Sunday!
