PersuasionHow do you know?
The author uses a blend of facts AND opinions to convince the audience
He incorporates a variety of persuasion techniques such as a plain folks and emotional appeal to call you to believe the way he doesSlide8
What’s the Difference?Argument
Persuasion
Focus on proving or disproving a point for a reader
Uses logical reasoning and factual evidence to prove a point; based on research; considers others perspectives on the issues
Explains and evaluates the consequences of accepting the argument
Focuses on influencing other’s beliefs and actions
Uses a blend of facts and opinions to make others do or believe something; might consider other’s perspectives on the issues
Explains the consequences of accepting the belief ONLY if positiveSlide9
PropogandaFocuses on making you accept a writer’s beliefs without thinking
Uses assumptions and biases to manipulate your emotions; uses little or no evidence; only considers its own message
Ignores ALL consequences of accepting the beliefSlide10
Why you should know the differenceMost college writing is ARGUMENT writing– you need to support details LOGICALLY with EVIDENCE
If you do not analyze the writer’s purpose, you may get suckered into believing something that isn’t logical
If you do not recognize the manipulation of propaganda, you will fall prey to advertisements and political ads—then you will make poor purchase OR cast a poor voteSlide11
