Rhetorical Analysis: Rough Draft with Peer Edits

Shown below are the suggestions by peers in order to make my paper easier to understand and meet the expectations of the project requirements. From every one of my peers, I was told to make sure I clearly state what H&M defines a woman. They also suggested that I give more examples from the past of what woman was to society. I edited my paper based on those two big suggestions. My peers also gave me very encouraging comments that helped me feel more confident in the advertisement I picked because I was skeptical of it due to the difficulty of how many themes there was in the video.

Final Reflection

      The purpose of the final reflection is to inform my audience of an overview of all I have completed in this my Composition II class. I address all three projects geared to displaying how they could be applied to the six learning outcomes. I also give an example of the challenges and strengths that this class revealed. I end the essay off with the overall benefit of the class.  Final Reflection Over the past semester in English Composition II, we have completed three main projects. There were six learning outcomes expected for the students to achieve and I believe that I conquered them all. The first learning outcome was to “respond appropriately to various rhetorical situations, purposes, and audiences”. The second learning outcome was to “use writing and reading for inquiry, learning, thinking and communicating”. Another learning outcome I was able to master was to use other’s ideas and “integrate” them into my writings. The fourth learning outcome that...

Rough Draft: When You Know Better You do Better

My unedited version of my persuasive argument had a lot of work to be done! My peer editors highlighted my higher order concern as needing to be more direct when it came to my thoughts and claim (thesis). They also pointed out the need to give light on what social media is already doing to help censor certain adult themes and protect children's development. Lower order concerns stated by my peer editors were grammar, punctuation and spacing. I went through and developed a stronger thesis, corrected my LOC's and tied my essay up with a strong ending claim to to thesis.  Persuasive Argument             “ As teens have started spending less time together, they have become less likely to kill one another, and more likely to kill themselves” (Klass, “When Social Media Is Really Problematic for Adolescents”) . Have you ever looked at your phone and felt a negative emotion or struggled with your mental health bec...

Rhetorical Analysis: H&M Commercial, "She's a Lady"

My rhetorical analysis project was based on the ad “She’s a Lady” produced by H&M. This ad addresses the modern appeal to the popular skepticism of the traditional expectations of what makes a woman a woman. H&M addresses this topic of feminism through displaying and encouraging body diversity, freedom of expression and opinion. This advertisement is geared towards women of all ages but naturally attracts the younger crowd of women because of the twenty-first-century values weaved throughout the video. Something that stood out about my project was that I chose an advertisement that didn’t cause a negative emotion but a more empowering advertisement that politely challenged the concept of woman.    She's a... Lady? What is woman? Is she delicate or strong? Is she black, white, Latino? Is she poised and put together? Does she wear size four or fourteen? From “She’s a Lady” by H&M, we can see the modern appeal to the popular skepticism of the traditional...
