Nonfiction Persuasion

Persuasion is used in various arenas.  The ultimate purpose of persuasion is to get individuals to believe in your ideas or to buy into your product.  Imagine the image on this page as part of an advertisement for milk found in a magazine or journal. In your reflective journal, think about and then respond to the following:

1. Who is the targeted audience?
2. What is the image/ad promoting?
3. What about the image/ad is appealing and has the ability to persuade the consumer?
4. Is the image/ad effective? Explain.
