This may be a hyperbole, but it evokes a strong message to the audience. sulliray001 https://padlet.com/bozueemm000/37jf79x4xo0d/wish/229649862 2018-02-08 16:09:30 UTC https://padlet.com/bozueemm000/37jf79x4xo0d/wish/229649862 sulliray001 https://padlet.com/bozueemm000/37jf79x4xo0d/wish/229651149 No, all of the devices in the pjocet were analyzed correctly and you did a great job of using a variety of satirical devices to get your point across. Good Job!]]> 2018-02-08 16:11:29 UTC https://padlet.com/bozueemm000/37jf79x4xo0d/wish/229651149 brenzros000 https://padlet.com/bozueemm000/37jf79x4xo0d/wish/230458399 The satirical device that stood out to me was the video. It got me thinking of how we could decrease the number of school shootings. Having a couple of police officers in schools could help prevent school shootings, but having as many as the video proposed would be ridiculous. ]]> 2018-02-12 03:05:45 UTC https://padlet.com/bozueemm000/37jf79x4xo0d/wish/230458399 brenzros000 https://padlet.com/bozueemm000/37jf79x4xo0d/wish/230459360 I think there were no others devices needed to be analyzed. All of them were analyzed correctly and they were used efficiently.]]> 2018-02-12 03:15:09 UTC https://padlet.com/bozueemm000/37jf79x4xo0d/wish/230459360 brenzros000 https://padlet.com/bozueemm000/37jf79x4xo0d/wish/230460039 Satire helps portray the issue of school shootings because it helps push the point across. For example, in the political cartoon, it was a back to school sale. Instead of school supplies on sale, it was bullet proof vests on sale. It helps the audience understand that school shootings are a big problem.]]> 2018-02-12 03:20:28 UTC https://padlet.com/bozueemm000/37jf79x4xo0d/wish/230460039 brenzros000 https://padlet.com/bozueemm000/37jf79x4xo0d/wish/230460987 I would use overstatement because saying more than is meant would be an effective way to argue against school shootings.]]> 2018-02-12 03:28:56 UTC https://padlet.com/bozueemm000/37jf79x4xo0d/wish/230460987 I agree with both these statements--I think that both the video and the political cartoon show that there is a bigger problem at hand that most people don't realize. By using satire, I think it helps people to realize what an impact school shootings have made on our society. bozueemm000 https://padlet.com/bozueemm000/37jf79x4xo0d/wish/230586463 2018-02-12 14:07:18 UTC https://padlet.com/bozueemm000/37jf79x4xo0d/wish/230586463 Both of these responses are very interesting, as they highlight parts of the project that are very important and thought-provoking. bozueemm000 https://padlet.com/bozueemm000/37jf79x4xo0d/wish/230587686 2018-02-12 14:09:43 UTC https://padlet.com/bozueemm000/37jf79x4xo0d/wish/230587686
