rhetorical analysis

rhetorical analysis requires one to think through a writing and be able to break it down textwise. the main goal of rhetorical writing is to be able to tell how the author writes and not what the author writes by keeping in mind the strategies used throughout the paper. In analyzing you want to make sure you read the work well and then ask yourself some questions. some of the questions one can ask are, what is the thesis? arguement and so on.when reading a rhetorical paper the writer should put in all effort and take it one step at time then the whole meaning will come out

visual narrative examples

im commenting on the visual narrrative we were supposed to look at so as to know which one we would be doing. sarahs was the one i chose to looks at because i loved the colors she used and the font to go with it. the visuals were all portraying what the writer wanted to convey. when making a visual narrative we work more on the pictures and less of the words or sentences because the main focus is on the visuals. if the audience or reader is not able to tell what the writer is trying to say then there is a problem with the project and sometimes too what the writer might be trying to convey might not be what the audience see or think throughout the project

good essay

When writing a good paper starting with the topic one must see to it that the topic is strong and straight to the point. when writing a paper the topic should be researchable and depending on what one is writing about, the topic can either be humorous or "boring". When it comes to the introduction too it should have a strong thesis talking about what the essay is about so the reader can have an idea about what the whole paper is about. the intro should also be interesting so as not to get the reader bored. The body of the paper should also explain into detail the point your writing. Transitional words should also be used to make the paper flow easily and better. transitions help to make the paper easy to read and understanding. Conclusions should summarize all the points in the essay or paper. it should have all the points brought down in short form in the conlcusion paragraph as well

smoking discrimination

From the reading i think the writers agues how unfair it is that employers should be manging or trying to take over thier employees personal life. som employers argue that smoking increases the healthcare and also affect other peole in the workplace therefore prohibit them from smoking in the work premises. this is agreeyable but when it is taken to the extreme where the try to invade in thier employees private lives by not makin them smoke and getting them fired when they smoke at home oer away from the premises is just wrong. i think employers should have nothing to do with thier employees once they are out of work on not on the clock. whatever they do with thier lives is up to them and npt the boss or manager to decide

narrative

I read and watched the first narrative. I loved the narrativehe wrote and the powerpoint he did because it
was simple and interesting. His slides led as through his career in the band and his achievements. I thought the slides that actually opened up as videos were the coolest thing and would love to do that in my narrative but really dont know how. His essay was also interesting as to him explaining why he chose the powerpoint and some of the efects and designs he used for his project and why he used them.

Malcom X

I liked the Malcom X reading because of the point he made throughout the reading. He stresses on the fact that he loved to read and the more he read the more he got educated. If we apply this to our everyday life we sometimes have to sacrifice a lot to get to somethng. in Malcom's case being in prison and not educated or not bein able to read and write gave him an urge to read and write more. In our everday life things happen to shape our future and that is what we need to work hard on in order to have a better future because if we do not work to shape our future then there is a problem.Malcom worked to shape his future although he was in prison he still woked hard and that made him what he was after he was released from prison.
