Project 4 Kairos Paper and Visual
For this assignment, compose a 4 to 6 page analysis paper that contains
Introduction
Detail essential historic or background information about the artifact briefly
Include thesis that makes a claim about how the artifacts have changed over time and the effectiveness of that change
Did the audience change? Did they switch rhetorical appeals? Are they always cashing in on current events?
Analysis of Artifacts
Evaluate the appeals used in each artifact. You don’t need to analyze every – only the ones relevant to your thesis and analysis
Identify changes from artifact to artifact such as shifts in audience, appeal strategies, or message, and explain if these are effective. You can also explore consistencies in these components
Incorporate sources that put your analysis into context or explain a critical component (e.g. historic context, data to support choice, etc)
Focus on questions like “How did they do it?” “Why?” “How do you know?”
