Thought Piece 7 prompt update

Hello, Students,
I have updated the prompt for TP7 so that it will hopefully be more clear. Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Announcements and Homework for Monday 2/6


A couple of announcements:
1. You can view the Rhetoric Test Study Guide here and on the 'Relevant Resources' page.
2. You can listen to today's (Friday 2/3) discussion. Find it in your email.
3. I've also included a thorough review of the Grant-Davie article here. It is a way to navigate the article by focusing on key questions. It may be a helpful way to study.
4. The two extra credit opportunities are:
           i. make a visual representation of Grant-Davie's ideas about rhetoric in the spirit of the ones we made for the Greene article.
           ii. create a "study group" with two or more members. take notes from your study session and sign the notes. Your session should cover the questions from the study guide.

Homework for Monday 2/6:
Read the two Aristotle readings (under the 'Readings' tab) and write TP #7 (under 'unit two').

Homework Due Friday 2/3

Your homework for Friday is TP#6 (on the blog). There is no reading for this thought piece, so just check out the prompt under "unit two."

You can also re-view the power point presentation on "Stasis" under the "Relevant Resources" tab.
