Post 04 Another Rhetorical Situation Part 2

 For my second essay or Doc2, the primary prompt was to try and persuade the reader to consider thinking about a major you're set on or plan to. With this said, I chose the major that I plan to choose, which is a Bachelors of Arts in Applied Arts and Design. I chose this topic because of my interests and what would suit my talents and skillsets. For the Audience, I give facts about how this significant works and its benefits and how it's connected to more things that the audience may find interesting. The primary purpose is to give examples of how this major is fun and suitable for people interested in art or might even be interested after reading. "Effective argumentation has been talked about for centuries.",(Caroll 54)in this, my essay would have touched the sides necessary for people to know I have a strong understand and information.

    When it comes to choosing a major, it seems as if we had the same idea to evaluate and choose a major! The things you were displaying as an outline of what you were going to tell audience about choosing your desired major seems interesting!

    The primary purpose of a persuasion essay is indeed to interest the reader, or have the reader agree with the writers topic or opinion on a subject. Here you have done a wonderful job displaying the purpose of Doc 2, and how your major is the topic of the persuasion essay.

Post 03: Outside Sources and Academic Writing

                                                   O utside Sources and Academic Writing     As most commonly used, the main ways of using sources in writings. For example, quoting; would be that you use direct words from a source, where d irect quotations are words that are taken directly from another source, and then used just as it's written in the paper. And then there's summarizing, which would be summing up information from a source, understanding the authors main points and shortening a summary from it. And then there is paraphrasing, which as it's known is, taking any part of the source and putting it in your own words. All of these are key in using outside sources in any writing you do, otherwise if not cited correctly,

Post 2: My Rhetorical Situation.

                              `             My Rhetorical Situation          For my first document, I wrote about the anxieties of test taking and online school, considering that I feel like I can relate and it's one thing that's a current problem or issue I face. As for the parts of the communication triangle (Rhetorical wise), First would be the purpose, the purpose would be to explain the issue I have which is being anxious about tests and the pressure that come with online schooling. Then there would be the message I'm trying to send, which is the negative effects of online school besides the postives adressed in the paper.  As for the audience the audience at the end should be well imformed of the issue and the downsides of online school but not be too keen on the negatives or postives and go for a more neutrul takeaway.

Post 06 Boyd's Rhetorical Strategies

 In Boyd's essay, she takes an approach to mainly explain to the readers about writing rhetorically. And in her paper, she makes it really nice to understand and have a good hold on what she's saying. Instead of going for the detailed information, she makes it (at least to me) more straightforward to understand by making it somewhat interactive! By also making it clear that her essay talks about how writing isn't just about how the paper is written but in a way, it's also about the voice, how it sounds to the reader.  As I've seen, instead of just laying out facts like other papers, asking questions.
