In Chapter 7 of Essentials of College
Writing, appeals to logic and reasoning are important components
of persuasive writing. Take a moment to review one of your own problems of
grammar, mechanics, or style that you have been able to remedy as a result of
working through this course. Your job is to convince others to avoid this error
before revising, editing, and proofreading their final descriptive essays. Use examples from your own experiences, evidence from your own
essays, and good old-fashioned logic and reason to persuade people to avoid the
pitfalls of the grammatical, mechanical, or stylistic error you have chosen.


Initial posts
must be 200 to 300 words in length and posted by Day 3. Respond to at least two
of your classmates who have done a good job of convincing you that you can avoid
a certain error in grammar, mechanics, or style and share why their appeals to
logic and reason were effective. Make sure you let your classmates know what you
learned as a result of their appeals! Response posts must be 125 to 200 words in
length and posted by Day 7. If you have questions about how to participate in
discussions, consult “About Discussions” under the Course Home menu. You are not
required to support your claims with additional scholarly materials; however,
should you decide to use additional sources, make sure you properly cite any
references.

Word
Range: 200-300 (initial post); 125-300 (each response)
