The idea behind this was to create a sort of ethos family tree that would represent the devices related to ethos. It is in response to the semester-long troubled understanding of how devices go into making a rhetorical appeal that I encounter with many students. Dr. Rice recommended making the explanation more concise and font size larger, as well as representing the Ethos bubble at the top of the tree with a different shape to represent that it is the appeal instead of one of the devices. I am working on these changes, but am having trouble replicating the color and transparency of the graphic, even though I am using the same settings. Any additional suggestion would be greatly appreciated!

  1. I like it. Maybe you could put ethos at the bottom of the tree trunk. That way, the tree grows out of the word.
