Advertising - Persuasive Language and Trends

$12.00

Persuasive language is super interesting when we study advertising! This is a comprehensive deep dive for seniors that covers ethos, pathos and logos as they appear in written and visual language. It acknowledges the fast-changing (worrying!) trends dictated by technology and influencers in particular. Multiple documents including teacher presentation, teacher guide, student reference and workbooks make this a complete no-prep and engaging unit.
