Instructions: In class we discussed three different means of persuasion (i.e., ethos, pathos, and logos). Effective public speakers are very strategic in their use of these tactics. Your task is to identify a specific public speaker’s use of ethos, pathos and logos. For this activity, you will need to consult unit 6, 7, 8.
