Ethos, Pathos, Logos
Ethos means credibility. By credibility I mean trust in a reader, writer or person. People are so much more interested in reading something by a credible writer. Someone they trust and knowingly expect true statements a facts that can be proven or found elsewhere.
Pathos means emotional. By emotional I mean that readers like to read things that touch their emotions. Things that "hit Home' to the reader are more appealing than random writings that to them don't mean anything. Using things such as language choice, places, or even phrases are emotional attachments that the writer may use to grab the reader.
Logos means logical. by logical I mean that if a writer writes something that is wrong and can be proven wrong in many ways isn't a logical piece. Writing logically is something that if I read an article and there was a bunch of statistics in it; however I could just think logically or even look up and find out its wrong. that's not writing logically.
You're on track here, Chad. You're missing quite a bit of blog posts, though, and those zeros are wrecking your grade.You'll need to be more diligent about completing the assignments over the next month and a half if you want to pass.
