Instructions

Creating an outline is a crucial part of the prewriting process. It is meant to serve as a guide during the drafting stage, so its content should be easily accessible to the eye. Therefore, avoid full sentences and too many details. In the upcoming module, you will write a draft based on the current-event video you chose using the outline you create for this activity.

This assignment is about providing analysis of the author’s use of logos, pathos, and ethos in developing a balanced argument, not the student’s views on the subject. Supporting evidence paragraphs should focus on usage of logos, pathos, and ethos. Include a proper title page utilizing APA 7 standards. Please note that APA 7 prohibits titles over 12 words.

Activity

Create an outline for your selected current event video. See this Rhetorical Analysis Outline Download Rhetorical Analysis Outlineas an example.

The outline should include:

Introduction

Summary Paragraph

Analysis Paragraph 1 (ethos)

Analysis Paragraph 2 (pathos)

Analysis Paragraph 3 (logos)

Concluding Paragraph

Each section’s content should be written as concisely and precisely as possible. Proper grammar should be used, but the outline does not need to include complete sentences. Include a proper title page for all writing assignments.
