Prompt: For this assignment, you will watch
- Sir Ken Robinson’s Ted Talk titled “How Schools Kill Creativity”
Copy and Paste the title into the search bar, and you will locate the video.
Then, you will write an essay in which you evaluate the speaker’s arguments. This, of course, does NOT mean that you should agree or disagree with the speaker; instead, you will provide a deep analysis of the rhetorical strategies the speaker uses to convince his specified audience of his point. You will need to restate his thesis/argument in your own words, identify his targeted audience, and show how he or she did an effective or ineffective job at convincing the audience. Identify the argument and audience in your introduction. Then, in your own thesis, state whether the presented argument is effective or not and spend the body paragraphs focusing on the different strategies and how they are being used.
