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.

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. And just be mindful! The voice, would be in a serious and informing manner, because the paper and I would be adressing the topic and it's somewhat of a serious issue when it starts affecting people's mental health.

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 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.
