Back to Fallacy

In all classes, you received your Bird Prompt back and added notes to your portfolio regarding areas of improvement. In other news, I mentioned earlier that the next timed rhetorical analysis prompt would be a surprise some time this month. Alas, we are running out of time and need to do MC and argumentation before the semester ends. Thus, the timed prompt will be the passage on your final. So, you have to still complete it.

1: In groups, you received a specific 15 pages of the Democratic Debate from last year. Using our shared document, make comments when you see a fallacy, indicating the type and explaining why it is such. Finish this up for tomorrow' class when we will take a glance over your classmates' fallacious identification.

3: After a brief wrapping up of our presentation discussions, we crafted slippery slope fallacies together. If absent, this is just a fun activity so no make-up is needed. Then, we finished reviewing all the fallacies from your packet. Tomorrow will be about identifying these fallacies.

7: We created a hybrid discussion of autism and Malala in order to expedite our work today. Afterwards, we looked at slippery slope videos from Direct TV. Tomorrow, you will be constructing your own slippery slope, so start thinking of a view ideas that could be used for entertainment value.
