Description
Publisher's Description of Rhetoric of Love Teacher's Edition
This guide assumes no prior knowledge from the teacher or student, though teachers should thoroughly familiarize themselves with the student book. Each lesson in this volume corresponds with the same-numbered chapter in the student text. Lessons cover a week of instruction, with 5 separate sessions, and show whether content should be completed before, during, or after a session. Content for the teacher includes notes on when to complete homework, suggested answers to comprehension exercises, and thoughts, commentary, and ideas for discussion. 217 pages, hardcover.
Category Description for Rhetoric Of Love
Rhetoric seeks to persuade. Power rhetoric seeks to persuade through intimidation. Rhetoric from love aims to turn others towards truth and beauty and – love. I just greatly simplified the premise of a rather complex text. Along the way, we see classic examples of people who dominate others with their rhetoric. Also, we read about real examples of those who change hearts with love. I enjoyed the example in chapter 1 of Desmond Tutu breaking up crowd violence after a particularly inciteful funeral. At the end of a lesson, you have comprehension exercises with thoughtful questions for the student, discussion questions for a group, and presentation options to practice spoken rhetoric. Appendix B in the back of the student text gives suggestions on creating different types of presentations. I liked that current situations in the world are included (2018 copyright). As you expect from Veritas Press, this is a rigorous course. I found it reads like a college level textbook. The chapters are very short, making them more digestible for the reader. There are 32 lessons, roughly 1 per week in a traditional school year. Scripture is referenced throughout as examples of using love to persuade others. There is an introduction section, but at this level of depth, it is assumed a student will have had previous experience with formal rhetoric. It could be done without this experience, but I think a student would get more out of the written/spoken assignments if they are already familiar with the formula for building a solid argument. This should qualify as a full year course for a high school elective credit. ~Sara
