In Class: Logos Artifact
The logos artifact I brought in today is my to-do list for the week. Logos is defined as persuading by the use of reasoning. The claim or argument that I'm bringing forth is that this week is stressful and exhausting for me, and the proof of that is found on my to-do list. There is both statistic and fact behind this argument because you can see on my calender, and to-do list that I have three tests this week, a blog post assignment, I must turn in observation notes, post on a thread for a different class, go to two different meetings, workout, and do little chores such as laundry, picking up groceries, etc. I believe this would be good proof to anyone that I am probably sleep deprived, and on pins and needles. Overall, the appeal to logos was my list, because I think it persuaded my case using statistics and facts.

Your to-do list is definitely an appeal to logos. It is verifiable and factual. Anybody can observe it and look at it and see that it is real and you really do have to do this things for the week.
ReplyDeleteHa, interesting choice for a logos artifact. I don't think I would have considered using something as common as a to-do list but it fits the description. I avoid the to-do list as it would also remind me of the sleep deprivation that I have been suffering as of late.
