There are quite a few glossaries on ATAR Notes for persuasive devices, but most of them only address the bog standard devices like appeals, anecdote rhetorical questions and so forth.
This is not the purpose of this set of notes. This set of notes is a glossary to the kind of persuasive device you don't see often, but which come up from time to time and are worth more marks than your run-of-the-mill persuasive device. Persuasive devices like 'gender neutrality', a perennial favourite of VCAA, and the 'strawman argument'. Don't expect these devices to come up often, because in a VCAA exam you would be lucky to find more than two or three of them. These notes are dedicated to those students who are committed to getting the best mark they possibly can.
