Appearance In The Navigator News

Improved Essays
Next and slightly more important criteria is appearance. Overall, the most important points within the appearance criteria were met, if not exceeded. Appearance is defined by the use of the front and back cover of the Navigator News, cited sources, columns or organizational ways of presenting information within the articles, and by the specific material used for the printing of the Navigator News. In terms of an organized way of presenting the information within any given article, it was slightly confusing to read down and then across in the “Fighting for Ta-Ta’s article. Understandably, it may have been necessary for the use of the eye catching picture on the front cover. On the topic of trustworthiness and cited sources, the Navigator News

    Many great literary journeys, from Noah’s Ark to Life of Pi, feature a boat. Annie Proulx’s The Shipping News is no exception, with boats playing a key role throughout Quoyle’s journey. The boat is a barrier, standing between Quoyle and a successful relationship with Wavey Prowse. Quoyle’s incapacity and fear with regard to boats prevent him from embracing his surroundings. Finally, Quoyle’s lack of comprehension regarding the culture of boats celebrated by his co-workers leads to a lack of connection with his fellow man.…

    Forensic Science: fact or pseudo? Three articles, “Forensic Science Controversies” by Rachel Kaufman published in CQ Press, “Forensic Science” from an FBI handbook on Opposing Viewpoints, and “But it Works on TV” by Sharon Begley from Opposing Viewpoints, discussed in this essay have comparing and contrasting rhetorical elements. Those rhetorical elements are the use of factual data from crime scenes (logos and pathos), contrasting writer credibility (ethos), and different appeals to certain audiences through formality of the articles. To begin, the first rhetorical element that all three articles use is factual data from crime scenes and actual information from case files, appealing to the audiences’ logos. By including these facts in the…

    “Genres have the power to help or hurt human interactions, to ease communication or to deceive, to enable someone to speak or to discourage someone from saying something different” (Kerry Dirk). The word “genre” has a prototypical definition of “category”, one needs to analyze the definition on a deeper level to understand that “genre” means more than just “category”. It is to an extent a “[tool] to help people to get things done”, as described in the article “Navigating Genres” by Kerry Dirk. The literal definition of genre is a category of artistic compositions, in literature, characterized by similarities in form, content or context, but what makes one genre unique from another is its writing elements such as rhetorical devices, targeted…

    In the world of science you can find information basically on any topic you wish to know more about. Whether it’s researching different types of plants or finding the different methods to curing a certain disease or cancer. When it comes to writing scientific journals or articles the author should be able to capture the reader’s attention by presenting information his or her audience might not know about or may find interesting.

They presented their finding by trying to persuade their audience using ethos, pathos, and logos; they also target a specific audience and answer the so what question proposed when analyzing an article/journal (Penrose and Katz, 2010, pg.183).…

    Bleh, locking down a clear understanding of ethos, pathos, and logos took a significant amount of time and research. Being able to apply this concept to a paper I found to be even more difficult especially in clarifying ethos and logos. In my mind, I over simplified the two concepts to ethos equaling credibility and logos to mean the accuracy of the information, but in my research, this was not always the case. In a basic Google search of rhetoric and web design, many sources stated that logos was the layout and ease of use of a website. The ethos, on the other hand, was how "professional" the website looked.…

    Throughout the past few weeks of Studies in English Education, the main aspect that has been addressed is the term ‘multiliteracies.’ From completing this portfolio and attending each of the workshops, I have learned that to become a text producer I need to be involved with the variety of functions in language and literacy. Hill (2012) states that ‘to be multiliterate means to be literate in print-based and new communication technologies’ (p. 361). Such technologies include ‘electronic literacies, technoliteracies, digital literacies, visual literacies and print-based literacies’ (Hill 2012, p. 361).…
