Class Reflection - 1/20/12

This week in class we covered how to rhetorically analyze images, advertisements, or any other medium that is presented to us. This was accomplished by viewing various political cartoons, street art by the artist Banksy, and a variety of advertisements. As a class we studied the techniques used and their intended purpose and/or audience. We also briefly covered thesis statement construction for the purpose of rhetorical papers.

Though neither of these topic were new to me, it's always good to review. previous English classes of mine have gone over roughly the same material, but with that being said, I haven't had an english class since spring semester 2010. So, I could probably use a review on some aspects of my writing.
