This assignment was to help students better understand the three persuasive appeals; ethos, pathos, and logos. We were tasked to use these appeals to create a commercial of our chosen brand and explain how the brand uses the appeals. My persuasive and writing skills were put into effect into this assignment as it got me a good score on this assignment. I used accurate evidence and clear reasoning to explain how my brand uses the three appeals. The most important part about this assignment was creating an advertisement as it was also the most exciting part. We were to use at least two appeals when creating our advertisement and it can be said that my advertisement was effective in my score.
For Women's History Month, we were tasked to choose one of the four provided assignments and use that to highlight the contributions of women throughout history and in present-day society. The assignment I chose to do was a slides presentation about Malala Yousafzai. I covered the story of Yousafzai and how she played an important role for women in education. What could have been improved was the amount of information I could have given to make the presentation clear, since not much was stated. However, the most enjoyable part about this assignment was getting to learn more about Malala Yousafzai's life story and how she impacted many women in education.
