Problem
Think of an advertisement that really surprised you. You might have seen this advertisement on television, YouTube, or social media. Share this advertisement in your journal. Explain how this advertisement tried to appeal to your emotions and whether or not you were persuaded by it. What strategies did the advertisement use to capture your attention?
Finally, as a student, why do you think it's important to recognize emotional appeals in our every day lives? Why is this especially important when we are engaging with the media?
