Week 8 Reflection

This week we were focusing on the analysis part of our essay which included writing on the three types of rhetoric. I found that this part of the essay was easier than the summary as in the summary you had to be very attentive and take notes. In my rhetorical analysis, I began with ethos and found a few different examples in the film and then applied them. I used the same technique when writing my logos paragraph.

Since my documentary focused on using pathos the most, I spent most of my time focusing on this part of the analysis. I described multiple different scenes and displayed how the viewer or me in this case, felt after watching the scene. I thought that this approach was the best since it gave the reader a clear picture of the scene while also providing a possible different way to look at it. After finishing writing, It felt very relieving knowing that I only have revise this week.

Outside of class, I had to work on my statistic project which is a 5-6 page paper on this data polling we have been doing. We have had this project assigned since the beginning of the semester, however, collecting the data took us all the way up to the middle of February. So, we have really only been working on the actually paper part to it for about 2 weeks. This weekend we worked on finishing it up and finalizing all wording since it is due this week. It felt nice to be done with not only this, but also the essay in Card class.
