Cosmetic Surgery Controversy

Decent Essays
My argument project was about the cosmetic surgery. The idea of our project is to decrease the number of people who gets cosmetic surgery. I was trying to reach the audience by showing them how awful it can turn out when they operate cosmetic surgery. I tried to include pictures that can grab peoples' attentions right away and included bullet points to shortly explain the main reasons why I oppose operating cosmetic surgery. I think the positive parts of my project is, it's very simply formatted so audiences can easily be persuaded. Also, I've created a poster instead of presentation; I think people might be bothered to look through the whole entire presentation. Yet if I just create a poster that can represent my ideas clearly, I think people

    I created three posters each one appealing to ethos, pathos, or logos specifically using visual rhetoric. For my first poster I used a comparison of the symptoms of opioids off the street and prescribed to show that there are large similarities between the effects. I used a blue color for the brain to show that there is a change from the normal chemistry of the brain when the effect of the drugs are used. The words “Could you draw the lines?” is in reference to the effects of the drugs. It uses logos to persuade the audience that the use of prescribed opioids are dangerous.…

    My project was to create a poster, advertising the school play “The Laramie Project”. This poster was supposed to represent the different aspects of the play. Upon speaking with the play director, Ms. Kleinberg, I decided to take a key place from the play and present it on paper in different mediums. This would intrigue people to come see the play, to learn of its significance. The poster was created on separate pieces of paper and would be scanned and put into a computer system to be layered in a photo editing app and sent to be printed.…

    Peer Review 1: No Name Cognition: I think that your proposition is good and definitely falls within the genre of a justificatory argument. However, I’m not sure that your argument feels like a justificatory argument. This seems to me to be like an explanatory piece overall because you don’t provide much evidence to support your proposition. You explain the background of your argument, but you don’t explain why the debate about Cleopatra’s race has relevance and why it should continue. This is especially since you say that we can never really know her race; it raises the question of what the point is of talking about it.…

    The medium that I choose to convey my visual argument was a website. My argument was that police officers should be required to wear body cameras because they have helped in citizens get off, they are more beneficial then harmful, and the body cameras could prevent future instances of police brutality. My audiences for this visual argument is the general public so that they can be made aware of what is going on and develop their own opinions on the topic. The purpose is to raise awareness and have the citizens thinking about what can be done to combat issues such as police brutality. I would like them to know that body cameras are one of the solutions to police brutality.…

    My speech on The Cost of Cancer is an argument for why cancer medication prices need to be lowered, why they’re harmful to Americans, and why the pharmaceutical companies are at fault. I use several rhetorical devices that help aid to the strength of my argument; including, pathos, ethos, and logos. When these devices are used it addresses credibility, emotions, and logic. This enables the audience to understand and relate to my claim on a more personal level. I establish credibility through ethos during several segments of my speech.…

    Wrong Site Surgery: Problems and Solutions Wrong site surgery (WSS) has been around since surgery itself but the statistics that accompany it are relatively new. Before 1999 there was no number for surgery associated injuries, deaths, and near misses because there was no process or system for recognizing and reporting the incidents (Hughes, Mulloy, 2008). Wrong site surgery can be defined in many ways with many subcategories. One definition is, “surgery performed on the wrong side or site of the body, wrong surgical procedure performed, and surgery performed on the wrong patient, any invasive procedure that exposes patients to more than minimal risk, including procedures performed in settings other than the OR, such as a special procedures unit, an endoscopy unit, and an interventional…

    Man’s greatest fear is death. For centuries, it has been the most dominant terror sitting at the forefront of every decision. Any form of death is dreaded, regardless of whether it be your death or the death of a companion. For me, the jobs that help individuals recover from encounters that brought them so close to death are the most rewarding. The desire to help people and their families inspires me to become a surgeon; it is not only a job, but a way to become a lifesaver and a hero.…

    As social media has become more prevalent in the lives of the youth of the United States, beauty standards have drastically shifted and are more unrealistic than ever before. Young people no longer want to possess the characteristics that create an individual, but would rather conform to perfection through plastic surgery. Years ago, the realm of plastic surgery seemed to stay transfixed to Beverly Hills and Jersey Shore, but social media has caused numbers to skyrocket globally while preying on insecurity, and has now created an uncanny trend. As a result of these demands of goddess-like beauty, 98% of girls say there is an immense pressure from external sources to look a certain way (“Pressure & Perfectionism” n.p.). Confidence is no longer an internal battle, but through the effect of social media it has begun to affect the daily lives of younger generations.…

    when writing an argumentative essay, first the writer needs to gather all the information needed to start the essay. The writer needs a topic to begin with like for instance, why breastfeeding your newborn baby is more substantial than bottle feeding. With a topic as this, this would make a great argument because so many nursing moms and new moms would have a different opinion for each one. Let’s just say that this is the topic for the essay, the writer would need to have a reasoning to back up their argument. From the website webmd.com, the advantages of breastfeeding are: (1) the cost of powdered milk is much more expensive than breast milk, so therefore breast milk is free, (2) the infant will get more nutrients from their mother versus out of a can, (3) it may also contain some fatty acids that promote brain development, (4) it can also save the nursing mom time from having to get up in the middle of the night to prepare a bottle for the baby, and last but not least (5) the new mom could lose weight with breastfeeding, and so much more.…

    Writing assignments are the most stressful, hardest, and most annoying type of work I have ever had! My first story to prove my thesis came in the form of a demonstrative speech I had to write for my speech class, where for the life of me, I could not even pick a topic. Though writing my speech was difficult, a harder example of this came as a process essay for my English 101 class. Still, these two examples prove minimal when compared to the horrendous onslaught that became my English 101 Mid Term Exam!…

    There are more than seven billion people in this world and according to recent studies almost forty percent of teenagers have thought about participating in some sort of plastic surgery. In addition to that study, over 200,000 teenagers have actually received work. According to Zuckerman, more than 236,000 of those procedures were to people between the ages of 13 and 19. So the question is why do teens suddenly have the desire to have a procedure done? Plastic surgery has created an unreasonable standard for females which has caused self esteem to plummet in teenagers throughout America.…

    Throughout the year, as a class we have been given many different challenges in either the form of an essay, speech, or group presentation. The final assignment given to us was a group project presentation. From growing up in an age filled with technology, I have come to love projects that revolve around making some form of a PowerPoint presentation. This PowerPoint though, was both difficult and interesting for the reasons of being assigned group members not of my own choosing, learning to listen to others ideas which can help me to learn something new, and using former knowledge while working together to create a clean, in depth, and well prepared presentation. With working in groups of students whom I have known since I was young but…
