FINAL BLOG.

The photo adventure was pretty interesting. I got there late but luckily, I ran into some classmates and tagged along with them! It was pretty hard trying to find some things to take pictures of that induce pathos, ethos or logos.


This picture is most definitely pathos. These people are on a strike for a certain cause. It makes you wonder what you can do to help and how it effects them. It could also be ethos because they are on strike because of some unfair treatment. They are credible to this cause.


This picture is using pathos. It gives a little story about how a mother saved her son from drowning after he got off a water slide. She used CPR precautions to save him. The poster is bringing up the awareness of pool safety with an emotional story behind it.


I have no idea what I was thinking about when I took this.

Doing the Social Issue paper was fun and interesting. I liked researching my topic of video game violence and how it affects children and people. The articles I read were very informative and interesting. The most interesting article I read had to be the one about the journals of the Columbine shooters. It basically showed you what they were thinking about and their plans leading up to the Columbine Massacre. Very heavy stuff. It was very useful in familiarizing me with the social issue because  had to dig deep for some information. I think the Columbine information is the best part of my paper. I feel like that was a main point that I was trying to get across.
