NOTE: Be sure to scroll all the way down to review the complete assignmentAND: This draft assignment has an official due date in Canvas. Unfortunately, Canvas does not allow for a due date for peer reviews. To received the full credit and benefit of having performed a complete, substantive peer review, be sure to submit it by the date that is listed on the syllabus: Friday, September 12th, 10 a.m. This requirement allows your classmate to use your peer review feedback to edit and revise before submitting a final draft of the essay.We've been exploring and considering how writing can be rhetorically analyzed using basic concepts such as purpose, audience, and tone. Of course, writing can be analyzed in many other ways using a number of tools, but for this essay you will use audience, purpose, and tone to analyze a piece of writing in your future or current profession. If you aren't sure about your profession, choose one that makes sense for your goals and work with that career area.Overview:Every career requires writing of some kind. You may not yet be aware of what those kinds of writings are, so learning more about that topic will be one aspect of this assignment. Once you have discovered what kind of writing is required in your field (I'm using profession, career, and field somewhat interchangeably here...you can substitute job as well), choose a piece -or kind of- writing that is long and meaningful enough to be analyzed for the rhetorical characteristics of audience, purpose, and tone. If you are unsure about what kind of writing qualifies, be sure to ask me!Examples of professional writing that you might work with based on your field include: a patient evaluation, criminal report, technical manual, lesson plan, artists' statement, event summary, or public relations statement. Do you get the idea?Once you have a kind of document in mind, you will analyze it using audience, purpose, and tone, providing evidence for your claims from the writing.Additionally, you will be required to use the grading rubric for the essay to peer review one another, including comments about what is working well with this essay (based on these instructions and the rubric), as well as what needs improvement (again, based clearly on the instructions and rubric).Purpose:The purpose of this assignment is to provide you with the opportunity to learn more about writing in your field through research and rhetorical analysis. Another purpose is to provide you with an opportunity to support your ideas with evidence. Finally, another purpose is to provide you with the opportunity to work with one another on the process of writing, and the understand writing as a process.Skills: Learn and practice: editing and peer revision, research techniques, the application or rhetorical concepts, composing clear, focused claims, providing appropriate evidence for claims, contextualizing a meaningful analytical essay with an overview, summary, and conclusionTasks & InstructionsResearch to learn what kinds of writings you can expect to encounter in your field (future profession, career, job)Choose one kind of writing that is substantial enough to analyze using audience, purpose, and toneCompose an analytical essay with the following components: An introductory paragraph that informs me about your future/current field, the types of writings you can expect to do in that field, and the kind of writing that you have chose to work with for the assignment. The final sentence of the first paragraph will make a claim about that piece of writing's audience, purpose, and tone. For example: "After analyzing XX (piece of writing) I believe that the purpose for this writing is XX, the audience is XX, and the tone is XX. Body paragraphs that provide evidence for your claims. Each body paragraph will state its claim and summarize the evidence. For example: The purpose for XX (piece of writing) is XX because XX. Then the paragraph will provide 2 or more pieces of supporting evidence from the writing you are analyzing.A summary and concluding paragraph that does two things: First, the final paragraph will summarize the information that you have provided (this is NOT a direct restatement of the essay's main claim, it is a summary of the evidence!). Second, you will also add an explanation about what you learned about writing in your field, as well as what you learned about analyzing writing rhetorically. This part will be reflective and personalProvide peer review commentary based on the rubric and instructions. I will assign peer reviewers manually after the due date for this draft.
