WORDS, MEANINGS, CONTEXTS, A UNIT ON SEMANTICS. GENERALLY SPEAKING, A UNIT ON GENERALIZATION. FLIGHT OF FANCY, A UNIT ON IMAGINED POINT OF VIEW. RHETORIC CURRICULUM III, STUDENT VERSION.

KITZHABER, ALBERT R.

STUDIES OF SEMANTICS, FORMATION OF GENERALIZATIONS, AND POINTS OF VIEW WERE COMBINED IN THIS THREE-PART STUDY GUIDE FOR NINTH-GRADERS TO PROVIDE A SOUND UNDERSTANDING OF RHETORIC. IN THE FIRST PART, EXERCISES WHICH PLACED WORDS IN DIFFERENT CONTEXTS WERE USED TO SHOW THE RANGE OF MEANINGS POSSIBLE FOR SINGLE WORDS. THE SECOND PART OUTLINED EXERCISES INTENDED TO HELP STUDENTS RELATE STATED FACTS TO MORE GENERAL AND INCLUSIVE STATEMENTS AND TO PROVIDE A LOGICAL BASIS FOR FORMING GENERALIZATIONS AND QUALIFICATIONS AS WELL AS ESTABLISHING SUPPORT FOR THEM. THE THIRD PART PRESENTED ASSIGNMENTS DESIGNED TO ACQUAINT THE STUDENT WITH IMAGINED POINTS OF VIEW, HUMAN AND NONHUMAN. SUCH POINTS OF VIEW WERE ILLUSTRATED THROUGH EXAMPLES OF BOTH POETRY AND PROSE. THE TEACHER'S GUIDE IS ED 010 806. RELATED REPORTS ARE ED 010 129 THROUGH ED 010 160 AND ED 010 803 THROUGH ED 010 832. (PM)
