For the upcoming class of Sept 26 (Tues class) / Sept 27 (Weds class), you have been asked to bring to class an advertisement warning against drunk driving. The advertisement must be a visual still image (a photo, not a video).
You will "bring" the ad to class by submitting a link to the ad as a Comment on the turnitin discussion board. You will not be uploading the actual picture, just providing the link. No hard copy is necessary.
You must also be prepared to present it to the class and provide an analysis. Some questions to consider in this analysis: What makes it effective? How does each specific element of the ad (text, image, placement, color, facial expressions, body language, clothing, symbolism, and double meanings) contribute to the overall effect? To whom is this meant to appeal? Why would or wouldn't it achieve its objective?
Separately, I recommend you begin reading Notes on a Scandal by now since we will discuss the entire novel on Oct 10 (Tues class) / Oct 11 (Weds class), and you will lose a considerable number of participation points if you aren't prepared on that date.
