  17. Author’s Purpose • There are four main purposes for writing: to persuade, to inform, to express ideas or feelings, and to entertain. • After you finish reading a selection, you should think about whether the author met his or her purpose in writing and why the author was or was not successful.

  18. Persuasive Devices • In the Chimpanzees I Love, Goodall presents facts, expert opinion, and both logical and emotional arguments to persuade readers that people should treat chimpanzees humanely. • Some persuasive writing, however, relies on devices that are less valid such as bandwagon, loaded words, and testimonial. Be aware of these common persuasive devices.

  19. Persuasive Devices • Vague generality is a statement that is intentionally broad or vague, such as “Chimpanzees are the coolest animals!” • Sweeping generalization overstates a situation, such as “No one cares about chimpanzees because they’re animals.”

  20. Context Clues • You can use a dictionary or glossary to find the means of unfamiliar words. • Find the meaning of unfamiliar words by finding the definition for each word in the chart below.

  21. Dictionary/Glossary

  22. Electronic Media • What electronic media do you use most often for doing research? • There are two types of electronic media available for research—computer and non-computer.

  23. Electronic Media • The same strategies apply to both printed and electronic sources, such as analyzing information, evaluating sources, asking questions, and taking notes.

  24. Electronic Media • Non-computer electronic media include audiotapes, videotapes, DVDs, television, and radio. • Computer programs and services include online Internet searches, online encyclopedia, CD-ROMs, internet databases, computer programs, and e-mail.
