This week, the reading covered the basics of writing in college and effective persuasive communication. You learned about how writers can use persuasive models like the rhetorical situation to motivate an audience to take action or change the way they think about something. Students also looked at how John, Eric, and Alice might apply persuasive communication in their future jobs as a restaurant owner, nurse, and crime scene investigator. After completing the unit reading and learning activities for Unit 1, respond to the following questions in at least two well-developed paragraphs:

  • Introduce yourself by telling the class about your experience using persuasive communication. What are you studying and how do you imagine you will use persuasive writing in your career?
  • Describe an example of effective persuasive communication that you have encountered and identify the different parts of the rhetorical situation. Who was the speaker or writer and who was the target audience? What was the purpose of the argument? What setting did the argument take place in and how might the communication have changed if it were in a different context? How does this example illustrate the qualities of effective persuasive communication from the reading this week?
  • Wrap up your post with at least one open-ended question for your classmates to consider as they help you dig deeper into the ideas you shared this week.
