Group Activity

I had my family look at the second assignment. They all agreed that our main flaw in our reasoning and arguments was that it seemed we were looking at our chosen organization in a negative perspective, such as our tone of voice shown in our writing. It looked like we were trying too hard to find anything to use against them that was stated on their website. One of my family members mentioned, if we were lawyers and we were arguing against this group, we could of won our case or a debate because of how informative we were and all the facts we found and mentioned. Basically, for a good cause, we were a little harsh on them in our reasoning.

I showed them our assignment sheet and the criteria we were supposed to meet and they said overall we met all the requirements and everything else in our paper was good, informative, and specific. So our only flaw was the negative connotation and tone used. Other than that, they agreed with our reasoning for appeal to emotion and pity being used and the celebrity endorsement/advertisement mentioned in the paper and the other sections as well.
