Chapter 10

Meghan Hawk
ENC 2135

After reading Chapter 10: Assembling a Multigenre Project, I have a better understanding of how to efficiently mix modes of media to transform a genre that follows conventions but also subverts them. This chapter provides examples for all types of cases like narrative, persuasive, and informative arguments. In addition to the arguments, different modes of media are suggested as examples accompanying each style. I found this to be very helpful in that these modes of media could be possible contenders for my own multimedia project. Before reading, I had little sense of direction of where to take this upcoming project. However, after seeing these proposals and the three provided examples I now know how to cater to my audience based on rhetorical appeals as well as the mode and media.

    I agree before I had a small sense of direction on how to start this project. So, I found chapter 10 to be very informative.

    I think chapter 10 clarified a lot of things for me when thinking about what I want to do for my topic. I have a better understanding of what to do and keep in mind.

Writing Activity March 27, 2018

My writing process for project 2 was different from project 1 because I had to conduct research towards my argumentative topic. I also was required to use the Florida State university database in order to find peer-reviewed article that would provide me with correct information. This essay also had several sources whom mad me sound more credible towards my audience, which enabled me to write more about my topic. The personally think that writing a first draft and then revising it in order for it to be my final draft to be very helpful when writing a research essay. I was able to carefully go over any grammatical or punctuation errors as well as make sure that all my sentences made sense and were not random. I enjoyed project 2 the most because I was required to conduct research on my topic, which allowed me to expand my knowledge towards an argument that is personal to me and it made me sound even more credible when discussing this argument face to face with someone.

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. In order for this to occur one must know the basic qualities and agreed-upon rules about the genre they are composing. Once one makes those decisions they move on to the rhetorical situation which mainly explains the idea. This allows the writer to provide support on their purpose such as saying what is great about it or provide statistics, which will automatically make their writing more interesting for the audience to read, as well as, get t...
