Week 3: macro view on planning writ
The slide sets from last week are repasted here.
- Audience analysis slides based on Aristotle: Set 1 (15 Google slides)
- Audience analysis slides based on Relationships: Set 2 (12 Google slides)
Two new slide sets are helpful:
- PWP focuses on genres (short Google Presentation slides) you will see in the professions
- What to know
- What to do
- How to do (directions from fall spring 22 students on Corsi-Rosenthal box constructon)
- Long slide set in PDF (1.9K form from PWP on a new genre to know and work in: ePortfolio or the UMD Portfolium option. Please skim.
Pause to ponder: what is the difference between a platform and a genre? In digitial culture, platforms can give rise to new genres or remediate old genres.
Tasks for week:
- notice genres (bread at farmer market, music you like, types of fiction)
- reflect as a user (audience that must DO) on instructions (lab, cell phone, paying taxes)
- find Easter eggs in syllabus
- think about rain gardens, low impact development, bioremediation, storm water run off, water quality
- Long EPA web exhibit with many links
- PG County rain garden guide (9-page color PDF)

Today we will chat a bit about directions using posts from Monday's gathering of links. I also want you to spend time on Friday in your protected hour on the ELMS portfolium link. In a meta cognition task, think about if the directions are:
- helpful
- efficient
- trustworthy
- clunky or smooth
Also, we will loop back to talk about visuals that spark logos, pathos, ethos analysis. BTW, sports is huge repository of logos, pathos, ethos analyis examples.

Happy Friday to all! Here is the GoogleMeet code for today:
9-9:50
10-10:50
11-11:50
Have you worked through some of the tasks/content earlier noted here in the Class Journal? Please do. One of our themes is to think about directions. You may appreciate two "raw" documents about masks:
- Guidance document about supporting local hospitals spring 2020
- Intermediate directions document with pictures
- Discussion document from ENGL390 about a defining/describing masks
Follow-up to Wednesday's discussion where I noted the home run stats in baseball are tainted by juicing. Short NPR piece this week about the Yankee's Aaron Judge: you can read or listen. Optional but is good example of how logos/pathos/ethos is EVERYWHERE.
Colleague Thom Haller demonstrates
LOGOS/PATHOS/ETHOS and/or
AUDIENCE/CONTEXT/PURPOSE rhetorical triangles.
Go Aristotle forever.
