- There is only one more week left of classes until finals. On one hand, I am super excited to be finished with all my homework. This whole semester was just endless assignments and I could never fully relax because I always knew there was more to do later. However, I am also somewhat nervous to be taking these important exams. I am going to have to study hard for the next few weeks. Either way, I just can’t wait for winter break!
- What I did
One of my Revision assignments will be for my analysis project. The occasion is the information known in the writing world. The exigency is the increasing gap between what is known from writing studies and what is known in common knowledge. The kairos is the publishing of the Bad Ideas About Writing book for students to read and learn. The purpose is to convince student writers that being invested and present in their writing, by using “I”, will improve their quality of writing. The audience has three levels: young adult student writers, writing teachers and professors, and the public who has false or outdated information on writing. I will revise this assignment in a different form such as a narrated PowerPoint. In order to do that, I would have to condense my essay into a few bullet points. I would have to extract only the most important ideas and support it with more pictures. My speech has to include evidence that supports those ideas but just are not written down.
