4.3 Study Aid for Ch 4 or Ch 5

The way that I have come to understand chapter 4, and maybe other students can as well too, is by looking at a dart (since I am a visual learner). So the easiest way for me to understand what is happening in Chapter 4, is to find that any argument can fit in to the dart board above. Because when making an argument you have to appeal either to the Ethos, Logos or Pathos.

Inside each of these circles you can add the information about the argument in order to build your argument, so that when you look at it you can see little speck like bugs in each ring (for example in logos you would see: evidence (facts, personal experience, etc) and in Logos you would see in the ring different logical fallicies (tradition, prejudice, straw man, etc).

This is the easiest way for me to study this chapter, as well when it comes to building my argument I would fill out the rings and then see which ring has the most information I can use in the argument and build it from there.
