Think about a situation in
your life where you need (or needed) to persuade someone of something. It can
be big or small. Write down the task (for example, “I need to persuade my
professor to extend the deadline for my assignment”) and then apply Beliefs, Values
and Attitudes theory to the task. Please refer to your textbook and PPT to
respond. In one-page (250-300 words) and in your own words, please list the
task, then list the beliefs you think the persuadee (the person you want to
