Different Styles

In chapter 8 it talks about designing arguments to make them visually attractive to more people so they read your argument and to make it more interesting. You have to first start off by identifying what your argument is going to be, who your audience is, what kind of design are you going to do, and how is it going to be presented. All of this deals with decorum and there are three different types of this, grand styles, middle style, and plain style. Grand style is the most formal of the three, middle style is a little less formal and where what ever you are arguing you come to it at a steady pace. The last style, plain style, is the least formal of the three, its clear and gets straight to the point. With your arguments you may also want to include a bio which gives background information about your paper and what made you interested in writing about that specific topic.
When you are trying to use pictures in your argument make sure they relate to it and you place it in the right spot. The best spot to put pictures are by the text where you are actually talking about it. One thing that you have to remember is that you have to have a caption for your picture.
Crafting an ad is one way people try to convince. An op-ad, which is called an opinion advertisement is the mostly used in today’s society. People who use these the most are nonprofit organizations, special interest groups, and political parties.
There are many ways that you can make your argument visual, you just have to choose what works best for your topic.
