For this paper, you will be expected to plan and write a response to one of the readings from this module using one of the prompts below. You should submit this paper via Turnitin. To do so, click on the Paper 2 Rough Draft link.Before you begin, you should view the Essay Rubric in the Course Resources section. Please note that your grade for the rough draft will be not be based on this rubric but on full completion of this assignment. If you have a complete essay turned in, you will receive the points. However, this rubric will give you clear expectations as to what we expect for the final draft.The goal of this class is to teach college-level writing conventions, which may require some students to move beyond previously taught writing models, like the 5-paragraph essay format. There are many significant weaknesses to this model and it is not adequate at this level. Some aspects of this formula should be particularly noted. It is not desirable to have a thesis statement that presents the ideas of your body paragraphs. This “A + B + C” thesis always sounds forced and is overly simplistic. It also contributes to the next major issue, which is a lack of real transitions between body paragraphs. Your body paragraphs need to have clear relationships between them–in the 5-paragraph model, this is usually not the case, but instead, the paragraphs read more like a list. You can often see this in the choice of transition words–“First, Second, and Finally”. There is no relationship here but the order in which they come. The final major issue with the 5-paragraph model is the summary conclusion. The conclusion is a vital space that can engage the reader in new and unique ways. By simply summarizing points from your essay or restating the thesis, you will disengage the reader’s attention and add nothing to your paper.There is no one, single way to approach a paper, or one size or shape. Therefore we are not looking for a particular number of paragraphs (although to prepare you for the exit essay, you should have at least 5) or a particular word count. If you look at the rubric, you will see what we want. First, you should have a strong introduction, which introduces the topic and identifies the paper’s direction. Next, there should be quality support, which offers specific details that are well organized and thoughtful. Finally, you will need a conclusion that challenges the reader and adds to the paper. This should be done with clear and concise writing. Think outside of formulas and focus on being as effective as you can be.

Answer each of the questions below. You can add as much detail as you wish. Be sure your answers are clearly understood by the reader. Remember, you choose the correct words, you choose the number (NOT amount!) of words to use. Your goal is to make your ideas clear and communicate your understanding of the questions to the reader. This is good practice using a couple of key ideas explored in the reading from today’s lecture.Make sure your homework LOOKS GOOD! Creating a visually appealing DOCUMENT should be a concept you are familiar with from other writing classes. A clear, easy to follow document will always aid in communication and understanding.1. Explain what this cartoon is saying about persuasive communication:2. One day at a golf tournament, a friend and I were convinced to drink several Red Bull energy drinks. We both knew the negative effects energy drinks have, yet we drank several. The Red Bull booth was a large, colorful, booth advertising free cans of Red Bull in a variety of new flavors. The booth workers were several young, attractive, women, dressed in shorts and tank tops. Looking back, it seems this is a perfect example of “peripheral route” persuasion. Have you ever experienced this type of persuasion? Provide an example from your own life.3. One of the toughest choices any speaker makes is how to use “ethical persuasion.” The author of our textbook claims speakers should always do this. But is this possible? Is it wise? Answer each of these questions with an interesting example. Your answers do not have to be based on personal experience. They can be hypothetical.Ethical behavior: do not break the law – do not speed : Give me an example when unethical behavior might be necessary and beneficial.Ethical behavior: always tell the truth – do not lie: Give me an example when unethical behavior might be necessary and beneficial.Ethical behavior: be forthcoming – do not keep secrets: Give me an example when unethical behavior might be necessary and beneficial.Ethical behavior: be kind and gentle – do not harm others (this might be hard): Give me an example when unethical behavior might be necessary and beneficial.(The point of this last question is NOT to convince you to behave unethically. It is to point out that being ethical is not always easy.)
