In Defense of Soccer by Jordan

In this episode, Jordan from Auratown stands up for soccer.In English 11, students read The Crucible by Arthur Miller. Through close analysis of the play, students dissected the rhetorical choices made by characters, recognizing how effective—or disastrous—the use of language has real-life consequences.After studying the play, students were asked to stand up and defend something. Doing this well required them to analyze the rhetorical situation and decide which rhetorical appeals (ethos, pathos, logos) would help them best achieve their purpose with the intended audience. These episodes represent the students' best efforts in completing a challenging assignment that required critical analysis, persuasive writing, and audio production skills under a tight deadline.
