Action Plan Mary Katherine Rankey

For my second draft I will go into greater detail about the differences between the two genres and give more specific examples. The peer review allowed me to see where my faults were in the first draft. Going into the second draft, not only will I include more detail, but I will also fix any grammatical mistakes. I will make this draft more organized and use more concepts we learned in class. To finish my second draft off, I want to make a better and more organized conclusion to my paper! I will do so by better summarizing the whole paper instead of just having the paper end without a summary as I did in my first draft.

The Bedford Book of Genres

Throughout chapter 1 of “The Bedford Book of Genres,” I learned that there are a variety of ways to improve one’s writing. Several writers tend to get carried away while writing that they forget who their audience is and what message they are trying to deliver. This is when one must ask themselves what their purpose of writing is, do they want to present a narrative/ tell a story, inform, or persuade. After figuring out ones purpose they must choose a genre to be able to shorten their idea and be concise.

Once one makes those decisions they move on to the rhetorical situation which mainly explains the idea.

Action Plan

For my action plan I will add more pictures to my website and continue to expand on my topic. I also plan to make posters to place around campus to reach outside audiences and use that as my nondigital source. I will continue to work over the weekend to finish the project and best carry out my message on my website.

1) In project two I first did a lot of research to gather ideas and topics that I wanted to include in my essay. Then I went through and proofed it while adding citations and formatting everything. I did ended up doing three drafts rather than two. Project one was a little easier to write in my opinion because it was based off of our observations rather than facts and statistics. 2) I liked taking my first draft and transforming it into a final draft. This is where I organized all my thoughts and made the paper flow nicely. Once I have all my ideas out on the paper I can easily reorganize, cut and add new things. 3) I enjoyed project one more. I think it was lighter in the sense that it was more fun to write about. I liked exploring the different kinds of social adaptions in the films while also comparing time eras.
