Schooling: Pro & Con

After reviewing both “Schooling: Pro” and “Schooling: Con”, it was easier to spot what types of appeals were being used. In both speeches, either speaker approaches the topic with an emotional proof. In fact they both use more logical and cultural belief coming from opposite ends. I believe their ideas were pretty straight forward; however, I wasn’t too convinced with either argument. Coming from a home schooled environment, I know that as a student you have to be motivated to do your work. Even more so, I did also go to public school; however, there are too many issues that I had no control over. In the end, I went back to home school. K through 12 Institutions are pretty scary. It really depends on the type of staff parents are working with. If there’s one thing I learned from these videos, it that they need to emphasis on their facts. Perhaps using more pitch and tone to really stress key points. You have to catch the attention otherwise the audience isn’t really going to catch those brief pauses for facts. Listening, I didn’t feel connected, but I could relate on the topic. Anyone who’s ever been through some type of education can understand.
