EX: "Doctors all over the world recommend this type of treatment." This relates to ethos because it is a person's belief and individuals tend to trust what their doctors say under medical circumstances. ]]> 2017-05-17 19:28:16 UTC https://padlet.com/17vangc/o1gc446u0p00/wish/172429321 17vangc https://padlet.com/17vangc/o1gc446u0p00/wish/172429538 A form of expression that creates pity or sympathy. 

EX: "I’m not just invested in this community – I love every building, every business, every hard-working member of this town." This is an example of pathos because this person is expressing his compassion for his community. ]]> 2017-05-17 19:29:24 UTC https://padlet.com/17vangc/o1gc446u0p00/wish/172429538 17vangc https://padlet.com/17vangc/o1gc446u0p00/wish/172429610 AKA logic. Used for arguments using facts and statistics.

EX: "The data is perfectly clear: this investment has consistently turned a profit year-over-year, even in spite of market declines in other areas." This is an example of logos because it's using logistics and stats to support his argument. ]]> 2017-05-17 19:29:44 UTC https://padlet.com/17vangc/o1gc446u0p00/wish/172429610 17vangc https://padlet.com/17vangc/o1gc446u0p00/wish/172432032 A trend that everyone wants to be a part of. 

EX: "Chacos." This shoe brand has been a big hit for the past year and everyone sees everyone wearing it so that makes people want to own a pair. ]]> 2017-05-17 19:42:22 UTC https://padlet.com/17vangc/o1gc446u0p00/wish/172432032 17vangc https://padlet.com/17vangc/o1gc446u0p00/wish/172432759 A person states an event that has or will happen followed by an inevitable event without a given reason. 

EX: "We have to stop the tuition increase! The next thing you know, they'll be charging $40,000 a semester!" This is a great example of slippery slope because it states that tuition will be 40,000 and a reason is not given as to why. ]]> 2017-05-17 19:46:32 UTC https://padlet.com/17vangc/o1gc446u0p00/wish/172432759 17vangc https://padlet.com/17vangc/o1gc446u0p00/wish/172433879 This term is based on assumption. If an event occurred, then the event before it must've caused it. 

EX: "Joan is scratched by a cat while visiting her friend. Two days later she comes down with a fever. Joan concludes that the cat's scratch must be the cause of her illness." This illustrates an example of post hoc because Joan believes her fever was caused by an earlier event that happened to her that may have caused her to become sick. ]]> 2017-05-17 19:53:31 UTC https://padlet.com/17vangc/o1gc446u0p00/wish/172433879 17vangc https://padlet.com/17vangc/o1gc446u0p00/wish/172434678 Misrepresenting or fabricating someone's argument to make an easier attack.

EX: "Pamela is the class secretary. She says that she thinks that the class should do more service projects. Mark says he can't believe that Pamela doesn't support the annual school dance." This is an example of straw man because Mark distorts Pamela's response making it seem dishonest. ]]> 2017-05-17 19:59:15 UTC https://padlet.com/17vangc/o1gc446u0p00/wish/172434678 17vangc https://padlet.com/17vangc/o1gc446u0p00/wish/172465829 Adding authority to a claim to make it seem credible. 

EX: "My 5th-grade teacher once told me that girls would go crazy for boys if they learn how to dance.  Therefore, if you want to make the ladies go crazy for you, learn to dance." Because the 5th grade teacher told the girls what would make them go crazy for boys her her audience will believe her. ]]> 2017-05-18 01:10:08 UTC https://padlet.com/17vangc/o1gc446u0p00/wish/172465829
