BBG 261-276

   Finding a research topic can be stressful for most people. However, in BBG pgs 261-276 they explain how to try and narrow down a topic so that it can be effective in ones writing. It taught me that at first one must generalize a topic at first but then we must ask a specific research question to make our research more specific. If at first the article results are to much one must make there topic even more specific or else there will be to much material to cover. It also works the other way, if your topic is to specific then you must try to broaden your topic so more articles will appear. The BBG also says that one should try to find a topic they enjoy about writing. If someone finds a research topic that they are interested in then it will make writing the paper much easier and the quality of the writing might even be better. These pages also helped me begin to brainstorm for a research topic in P2  as it also talks about different preliminary writing techniques to get your ideas out on paper.

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.

Jamica Williams What are some subversion examples the author mentions? A few books the the author mentions It's just a plant, Heather has two Mommies, and Gloria Goes Gay Can you think of other 2 books or movies that are subversion? Scary movie 1 and 2 Why are they subversion? Scary movie is subversive because it takes into account the the rhetorical factors in most scary movies and joke on them. Its more of a comedy than a "scary" movie. Each of the characters do exactly whats expected. They run the opposite way like up the stairs, trip and fall multiple times, and even live with the ghost that is haunting them. What do you think "GO THE FUCK TO SLEEP?" Who should be the target audience for this book? The audience of this book is any adult/parent. Because its probably R-Rated its targeted to older people, and anyone can find this humorous.
