Learning Goal: I’m working on a english discussion question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.

PRIMARY POST DUE BY THURSDAY AT 11:59 P.M. | RESPONSES DUE BY SATURDAY AT 11:59 P.M.

Now that we have had a chance to learn about some of this week’s material. It’s time to start talking about it.

INSTRUCTIONS

Contribute your primary post to our discussion by Thursday, 11:59 p.m. (but now is good!). In your post please include the following:

Perhaps the most important aspect of Normal Curve Theory is that it gives us a picture of how most people ‘are’… their height, their weight, their attention span, their emotional reactions, etc.

1. 1. Think about advertising for products that you either own or are interested in. What are two of the advertising techniques being used? What is the target audience for the advertising (who are they trying to reach)?
   2. Think about advertising for political candidates or propositions that are on the ballot in November. What are two of the techniques being used to promote their viewpoint and influence you? What is the target audience for the political ad (who are they trying to reach)?
   3. OPTIONAL: If you want to do something different, you can comment on whether particular news shows are promoting a particular viewpoint and what target audience they are trying to reach or appeal to… also, in the last Presidential Election, more people who were eligible to vote, chose to not vote rather than vote for either candidate. Is not voting in your opinion, a rightful choice?

Remember to be courteous and thoughtful in your responses. This is just an academic discussion.

ALSO: HERE is a Link to a YouTube Video:Video on Political Messaging TechniquesLinks to an external site.or  to get you started.

Be sure to think about how Normal Curve Theory is related…

By 11:59 p.m. Saturday, please respond to at least two posts in our discussion. You might discuss a related experience, share relevant feedback, or provide a different perspective.
