BOTH student sample projects reflection

In terms of the first student essay, I liked the way that he used ethos in two different aspects. First he used the idea of ethos focusing on what the author quoted to make his essay credible by mentioning famous writers. Also, he used ethos focusing on the exact source that the author work at or comes from which was the New Yorker news. the problem is I do not seem to find out where he mentioned what type of argument that the author used in his article. On the other hand, the second student essay, its clearly states that the author uses casual and rebuttal arguments. Also, in terms of the second student sample, I liked the way the he used ethos in different way by looking at the way that the author worded his viewpoints rather than the sources. Also, the way he used pathos by mentioning the story that the author talks about, and not only that, the student explained how this story could affect the readers’ emotions and beliefs. I would say that the second student essay is better than the first one from how he was very clear of his points and used all kind of strategies on his own way and connected them properly. In my opinion, I would use the second student sample as my mode because his strategies gave me a sense of more space, breathing room, and ways that I can discuss my article. Not mentioning that they both used the logos, pathos, ethos of their article.
