For this assignment, you will select a Ted Talk to analyze that will serve as the focus of your Essay 2 analysis and evaluation. The TED Talk should be one that presents a meaningful message to you in a way that is interesting and compelling. Keep in mind, though, that you will not be given an opportunity to respond to the argument presented in the Talk. You will merely analyze it and evaluate it, so it is best if you choose a Talk that you know you can maintain objectivity with and that you won’t get too emotionally involved. You will need to continue to separate your own feelings about the argument being presented from how and why the speaker presents the argument in the way that he/she does and whether that presentation proves effective or ineffective. The majority of your essay will focus on how the speaker chooses to make an argument, not whether you agree or disagree. We will be working through the writing process like before, so please save this handout so that you know exactly what to do for each step and what is expected to receive full credit.
