Test learners' ability to identify, define, and analyze common rhetorical devices (e.g., metaphor, anaphora, repetition, ethos/pathos/logos) and framing techniques (e.g., priming, agenda-setting, euphemism, spin) used in political speeches; evaluate short speech excerpts for persuasive strategies, intended audience effects, and ethical implications, and apply basic framing analysis to assess how language shapes public perception.
