Student Learning Outcomes

  1. Analyze, compose, and reflect on arguments in a variety of genres, considering the strategies, claims, evidence, and various mediums and technologies that are appropriate to the rhetorical situation
  2. Describe the social nature of composing, particularly the role of discourse communities at the local, national, and international level
  3. Analyze and describe the value of incorporating various languages, dialects, and registers in your own and others’ texts

Overview

This sequence introduces students to the basic rhetorical language of the course: genre, audience, purpose, discourse community, mode. Students explore their discourse communities as a facet of their identity. They begin the semester writing a memoir about a time when they felt like an outsider from a discourse community. Then, they create a usage guide about a discourse community they belong to. The usage guide introduces students to the concepts of purpose and modes.  Finally, students create a website profile of that discourse community, selecting their own audience, purpose, and angle.

Student Learning Outcomes

  1. Analyze, compose, and reflect on arguments in a variety of genres, considering the strategies, claims, evidence, and various mediums and technologies that are appropriate to the rhetorical situation
  2. Use multiple approaches for planning, researching, prewriting, composing, assessing, revising, editing, proofreading, collaborating, and incorporating feedback in order to make compositions stronger in various mediums and using multiple technologies
  3. Use writing and research as a means of discovery to examine personal beliefs in the context of multiple perspectives and to explore focused research questions through various mediums and technologies

Overview

In this unit, students gain complete control of their composition. They learn how to keep a topic or message in-tact when the rest of the rhetorical situation changes. First, students write a manifesto explain their core beliefs and explore how their beliefs were shaped. Then, they must present this information to an audience of peers using the medium of video. Finally, they select an audience they think they can impact. With an audience in mind, students create any genre and medium to best reach their intended audience.
