Title: Module 3 Introduction: (CU3 M3)
Course: SkillsCom WR 122 15.0 > Section: Credit Unit 3 Module 3 - Personal Ethical Appeals

In Module 3, students are introduced to another way of approaching argument through an ethical and personal appeal. This is framed in a discussion of Plato’s Allegory of the Cave, which is a complex but valuable way to consider incorporating life-changing ethical decisions or discoveries. To begin thinking about this, students are asked to write a small, personal story that discusses a major ethical reconsideration in their own lives and then to analyze this method of argument.

Module Outcomes:

- Apply appropriate levels of critical thinking strategies
- Implement appropriate rhetorical elements and organization
- Craft sentences and paragraphs that communicate their ideas clearly and effectively
