Why Write response
This reading was somewhat of an overview of what I learned in ninth grade. There were however some sections that expounded on what I did learn or reminded me of what I had forgotten. One part was about research papers needing an emotional appeal but that these emotions have to be backed up with facts and logic. If your paper, or topic cannot supply any logic then you are no longer writing a research or persuasive paper. You are now writing a feel good story. Picking your topic has to be the most important part of the paper. Not only does it have to mean something to you, but you also have to pick a topic where you can back up your claims. :)

True dat brother. That's why I'm thinking of changing my topic cause when I chose it I was just thinking about my own opinion and how strongly I feel about it, but I wasn't thinking about the logic side of things. Anyways now that I think about it, it could be a super hard topic to write on as far as the logic part goes.
ReplyDeleteI also learned some from reading about the part that talked about creating an emotional appeal. I think that it will be rather difficult, but I guess I am going to have to give it a try now. I also think picking your topic is important, and that may be why I have yet to choose one haha.
