IcebreakerSo my question for all of you today is pretty easy to answer, and I hope easy to share: I want you to tell everyone your name and share a “guilty pleasure,” which, of course, is something you enjoy that you’re a bit embarrassed by or that you’re afraid your friends wouldn’t think so highly of.

So, questions?For today, you should have read over the syllabus, and you’ve also had a couple of days to digest all the info from our first class meeting.
Before we start the day’s activities, are there any questions or concerns about class policies?

To the readingsToday is going to be all about what we can do in trios.
So form a group of three. If we have an off number, there can be a group of four, or a group of two, but if everyone is here, threes should work.
Once you’re in your group, I will be giving you a task.

Your taskI’m going to give you about seven-to-ten minutes in your group to determine a specific person’s definition of rhetoric based on our readings. In some cases, you might also need to consult an external source, but in those cases I chose people from the Wikipedia article that shouldn’t be tough for you to find. Write down your definition, then some brave soul gets to add it to a slide on the PPT.

Excellent! Since we’re doing so well in our trios, I’d like you to now use what we’ve learned defining and reading to do take our first crack at rhetorical analysis.
There are, on my Tumblr, posts with “artifacts” numbered 1-8. So go to my Tumblr and look at your number. Bear in mind that you can use all the rhetorical skills you’ve learned, but certain approaches will lend themselves to certain interpretations more than others.

And now we share.And I will display things as you discuss them.
Alt-tab time.
