Ethos:

I have a best friend and we have known each of us since we were 10 years old. His name is Enzo, and he his like a family member to me. Because he is my best friend, I can blindly trust him, no matter the situation. For example, if we face a problem and looking for a solution to solve it, of course we will think about it together, but as soon as Enzo comes up with an idea to fix the problem and seems confident about it, I will agree and trust him, because I know him well and as long his idea is credible, it will be easier to convince me.

Pathos:

Unfortunately, I loved a girl who didin't have feelings for me 2 years ago. All my friends told me to stop thinking about her, because she would never agree to date me. My only and last solution was to show her all my love, to prove to her that I deserved to be considered and that she could count on me whenever she needed. So I went to school, called her, and then we discussed. I said every single words related to love to convince her, but it didn't work. I tried to make her feel something and convince her with my words, my tone and my attitude, but in my case it was a failure, it wasn't mutual.

Logos:

One day, I asked my dad for letting me get a tattoo. Of course, I already knew he was going to refuse this possibility, he really doesn't like tattoos but I still tried. When he rejected my wishes, I immediately asked him "why???" "Are you refusing just because you don't like tattoos?? Don't you think about my taste? I would be glad to get one". He was calm, and as soon as I finished reproaching him, he took his phone and opened a verified scientific article about the bad effects of getting tattoos. He read it in front of me and then he said "you know, it's not against your tastes but science proves that getting tattoos is bad for your health. You won't be able to donate your blood anymore, and just think about this ink inside your body." After earring this, I was convinced not to get a tattoo.

1 - According to the ESOL 100 Course pack, the notion of Academic Integrity includes different values to practice in our academic life, such as: “honesty, trust, fairness, respect, and responsibility”, ESOL 100 Course pack.

In an online learning environment context, I personally think that Honesty will be the most important value because when we work digitally, the risk of plagiarism will be highly possible. Indeed, students can use some digital tools to do their work such as the AI Chat GPT. They can also ask their friends to give them the answers to an assignment. Due to all of this, a lack of honesty will exist between students and themselves, and also between students and professors.

So that’s why I think Honesty is the most important value in an online learning environment context.

2 - I think so, we have to practice academic integrity even in the workplace because these values don’t have to be applied only in an academic context. Before academic values, they can also be life values, it means that we have to apply them in any context, no matter if it’s the academic context or whatever it is. For me, we must practice respect in any context. For example, in the workplace we have to respect our co-workers, our manager, or our clients to get a good and respectful work atmosphere. If we respect them, they will respect us back.

1 - Effectively, I wasn’t aware that submitting the same course work for two different courses wasn’t authorized. I thought that it was not that serious and doing this doesn’t have a lot of consequences, but now, I am aware that it matters a lot.

2 - As an Humber College student, my responsibility is to sensibilize the other students who want to go against these Academic Integrity values and responsibilities. We can do this by telling them the bad consequences of going against these values. In addition, my responsibility is also to control myself to not commit academic misconduct offenses, by respecting the values of Academic Integrity.

1) AI generated videos/audios can be scary by creating a deepfake video, or creating song cover and uses the singer's voice to transpose it to the original song. It's scary because singers can't copyright their voices. AI generated videos/audios can also be scary because of the AI generator applications.

2) I totally agrees with the idea that AI is scary. Nowadays, we can notice that everything can be edited by using tools like photoshop or others, and with the AI arrival, it will be harder to detect a real video/audio and a fake one. We have to be very careful when we watch something because we always have to know if it's real or not, and that's so scary.

3) The strategies the speakers mention to detect AI are:

detect if the video clips have something to do with the audio, check if the lips sync with the song

zooming in the video to detect disconnection between the audio and the video

Caring about the information ecosystem (who posted the video, did the artist shared it, what kind of person comments the video...).

4) We have to be careful about what we watch or listen, and know how to detect AI generated content because it can be very tricky and scary. IA have good and bad aspects. Finally, we need human news anchor and also we must to update our information ecosystem in the time, to always be informed about what is happening in the age of AI.

1) At the end of ESOL 100, I would like to expose my opinion, my argument fluently during the class conversation. I would like to beat my fear of being stresses due to my difficulties to express myself.

2) I personally think that this goal is important for me because now that I realize that participate in a kind of debate between the professor and the students can help a lot to learn faster, I really want to know how to master it and express myself correctly.

3) Firstly, I'm gonna start to participate little by little in class. After that, I will force myself to ask questions to the others students or to the professor if I didn't understand something. Finally, I will learn to expose my ideas to others when I have to, for example during a debate or when the professor ask us our opinions.

4) For evaluating the achievements of my goals, I'm gonna count the number of times I have to participate in class. For example, today I'm obliged to participate at least 2 times, tomorrow it will 3 times, then 4 per day...

5) I guess that I'm gonna take a time of reflexion to determined why I didn't achieved my goals. Are they unrealistic? What did I do wrong? Then I will decide if I adjust my goals or if I remplace them with another goals.

1) What was challenging for you to do?

I personally think that the most challenging task to do during this reflection was the space management. We have to create a balance between what we want to write, and how much space do we have. Finding the right words to make the meaning more understandable, but keeping it as short as possible, is not an easy task.

2) What did you find interesting?

The most interesting task was to design the infographic. I love to use my creativity to create something visual and attractive.

(PBS NewsHour, 2019) “WATCH Greta Thunberg's full speech to world leaders at UN Climate Action Summit”, is a video where Greta Thunberg addresses world leaders at the United Nations Climate Action Summit. She let us know her anger and frustration at the inaction of the world leaders on the climate crisis and accusing them of stealing her dreams and her childhood. Thunberg highlight that the situation is urgent, by citing scientific data. She asks for immediate change, warning leaders that it will be unforgeable if they fail.

I think that Thunberg mainly expresses anger. We can see it by her facial expressions, the tone of her voice and her vocabulary. We can notice it because she speak with a high tone like she is screaming (kind of). She also accuses them of “stealing her dreams and her childhood” with “empty words”, clearly expressing her frustration and disappointment.

Finally, I think that Thunberg's emotional force make her speech persuasive. When we look at her, we instantly feel her pain, and she get our attention. She continues her argumentation, but always with a sentimental attitude, and that makes the speech so persuasive.

1) I think the most useful element that I learned in this class are the Rhetorical Strategies. As a Media Communication student, these rhetorical strategies are very helpful for me. Now that I know how to make the difference between Ethos, Pathos and Logos, it’s easier for me to analyze the majority of the content I read in my media communication course. For example, sometimes we have to analyze an advertisement, and using rhetorical strategies is very helpful. It might help me in my professional life too, because in the future I would sell my services, and knowing how to persuade the client is an essential skill.

2) Reflection and revision has helped me to improve my writing skills because it permits me to be more attentive on what I write, and also what I think. Effectively, they train my brain to think more, and think better, by providing interesting ideas or opinions to finally deliver a qualitative reflection. For example, a major part of the reflections tasks are based on text analysis. The concept of the text analysis requires a logical reflection, with strong arguments and ideas. So to do this kind of task, we must be focused on what we are going to write, and make sure that our work content is concrete.

3) Usually, I never do self-assessment. Even if my high school teachers always told us to make a self review of our work, if it wasn’t obligatory, I never did it.

After all, by experimenting with the self-assessment process in the Reading & Writing Skills class, I’m convinced that doing a revision of my own work is a great way to improve my skills, and identify both of my weaknesses and my strengths. Even if the major part of the time, the things that I have to revise doesn’t have a big impact on my grade, it’s always better to notice the good elements and the mistakes in the work. By doing this, we will be aware of our mistakes, and in the future, we are not going to do the same ones again.

4) Personally, ESOL 100 was such a good experience. I really enjoyed it, even if sometimes I skipped some assignments so my grades are not very good. Obviously it’s my fault, not the teacher's. Globally I really appreciated the courses, with a lot of interactions and interesting activities. The Kahoot quiz before the lectures was great and very fun.

About the group project… I know it’s necessary but I prefer to work individually, due to many reasons such as time management, group communication and more. But we both know that it’s just a question of taste.
