RHETORICAL STRATEGIES PART 1!

Discussion:

• Ethos: Credibility....Pathos: Emotional appeal....Logos: Logic/Reasoning...Kairos: Opportune moment
• Ethos Examples: 

1. The Author, Johannes is a philosopher who works with engineers "Stanford's Center for Automotive Research". (Self-Driving Cars Article).
2. Diana Divecha -Creditiable because she has a phD in psychology and she's an assistant clinical professor at Yale Child Study Center and Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence which makes her credible to talk about bullying

• Pathos Examples:

1. Diana Divecha: "School with a positive climate faster healthy development, while negative school climate is associated with higher rates of student bullying, aggression, victimization, and feeling unsafe."
2. Diana Divecha: "A minority as teachers report that they feel unprepared to deal with classroom bullying. Some teachers bully students themselves, or show a lack of empathy towards children who are bullied."
3. Diana Divecha: "Do leaders understand that uninterrupted severe bullying can confer lifelong negative consequences on targets of bullies, bullies, and witnesses?"
4. Diana Divecha: "For example, preschoolers are expelled from school at the highest rate of all, but the neurological hardware for their self-control os only just developing."

• Logos Examples:

1. A study of 3t- first graders showed that when teachers were more emotionally supportive of students, children were less aggressive and had greater behavioral self- control, compared to the use of behavior management which did not improve student self- control. (Divecha, Proveit Bullying).

• Kairos Examples:

1. "So a school's specific issues can be addressed, and the flavor of local cultures retained. School climate assessments can be completed periodically to track the impact of improvements." -Diana Divecha.
