Rogerian+v.+Classical

Our text articulates speech models along two paths: the Tell/Sell approach and the Join/Consult approach. Please find a web page or article in a book/magazine/journal that discusses Rogerian and Classical/Toulmin argument. There is a .doc file from the University of Michigan that will immediately download to your computer [|here]. You will find another source, in addition to this one.

After finding this article, please use your topic in discussing and illustrating the following points in a brief, 3 page paper.

1. How does introducing your topic differ from these two argument models? 2. How does concluding your topic differ from these two argument models? 3. In considering the oppositional viewpoint, how do you approach the other side, with these two models? 4. What kind of evidence or proof would you use with either of these models? does it differ from Rogerian to Classical? 5. If you had to use a tell/sell or a join/consult approach is there one of these models you would necessarily use for both/either? Please utilize examples from above and information in chapter one of your textbook to support your answer.

You may bullet point and enumerate your essay in response to these five points, or you may create a "high skim value" document (hsv) wherein you have headings or sub-headings to differentiate each section.

Please keep in mind this is a short paper, but requires you to analyze your topic, with some new ideas, so give yourself ample time to think and come back to finish it. As well, use 12 point font, 1 inch margins (header and footer too), you will "reference" your found source in a bibliography section at the conclusion of your paper.

40 points possible.
