Overview
The largest paper we will write in this course is a 1800-word long article (referred to in this class as the “Argument Paper”), which could be published in either an academic journal or in a professional magazine. For this paper, you will imitate the writing conventions of your chosen publication. Before you can do this, you obviously have to fully understand those conventions: the style of writing being employed, the rhetorical choices being made, and the topics being covered. These stylistic and rhetorical conventions will vary from the academic journal to the professional magazine. In order to make an informed decision about which type of publication you will write the article for, you will formally compare the two in a Rhetorical Comparison Paper.
To begin, you will review the common writing styles and conventions evident in both publications. Then, you will make a claim regarding the similarities and the differences in their styles; this claim will be the thesis for your Rhetorical Comp Paper. You will support your claim with a thorough analysis of each publication’s style with examples and evidence drawn from multiple articles from both the academic journal and the professional magazine.
Steps
Find an academic journal in your field of study using KCC’s databases. Make sure it is peer reviewed.
Find a professional magazine in your field of study online. Make sure it is a professional publication.
For each publication, you must complete the following steps:
Read three articles from each
Analyze the writing (or stylistic) conventions of the articles – tone, diction, organization, sentence structure
Analyze the rhetorical conventions of the articles – use of rhetorical tools and strategies, use of rhetorical appeals
Develop a claim regarding the similarities and the differences in the conventions
Write the Rhetorical Comparison Paper using support from multiple articles in each publication
The Minimum Requirements for the Rhetorical Comparison Paper
You are required to write at least 1500 words. You may not write over 2100 words for this assignment. Please note that works cited/reference pages do not count toward minimum length requirements and block quotes (quotes of four lines of text or longer) may not be used in papers for this class without my prior permission.
You are required to select both one academic journal AND one professional magazine from the same discipline or profession to analyze.
You are required to read at least 3 articles from each of the 2 publications you’ve selected (for a total of 6 articles) and use specific examples from these articles to support your analysis of the publications’ writing styles and conventions. These 6 articles will count as the 6 required sources for this paper; if you want to use additional sources, however, you are free to do so.
Required Outline
Introduction: Be sure to introduce both publications in your introduction. Name the publication and briefly summarize the purpose of the publication – you may have to research this and cite your sources (probably the About page). Do not name all of the articles you will be using to back up your claims as to style. Conclude this section with your claim about their typical writing styles.
The Academic Journal: Open the section with a brief explanation of the audience for the publication. Write your body paragraphs wherein you analyze specific conventions (at least 3-4 specific features should be analyzed, each in its own well-developed paragraph). Be sure to explain how those stylistic features are appropriate for the publication’s intended audience (discourse community). What effects do you think these stylistic features have on readers and why? How do these style choices support the purpose of this publication?
The Professional Magazine: Open the section with a brief explanation of the audience for the publication. Write your body paragraphs wherein you analyze specific conventions (at least 3-4 specific features should be analyzed, each in its own well-developed paragraph). Be sure to explain how those stylistic features are appropriate for the publication’s intended audience (discourse community). What effects do you think these stylistic features have on readers and why? How do these style choices support the purpose of this publication?
Conclusion: This may include brief final reflections on the two publications’ styles, their similarities and their differences. Do not summarize what you have already said in the paper. Be sure to also make some conclusions about which type of style you’d prefer practicing/imitating further as you write the WID paper later in the semester. Do you think it would be more beneficial for you to practice writing as a professional in your field for an academic journal or for a professional magazine?
Note: I want to emphasize that the body paragraphs in this paper need to be organized around the specific stylistic choices that you’re analyzing, not the individual articles that you’re referencing as examples. The focus should be on the style choice, not the articles themselves.
Note on Headings:
Please use the bolded headings above in your paper itself to aid your reader as they read the paper. Think of the above numbered headings as SECTIONS of your PAPER not paragraphs in the paper. You will definitely have more than one paragraph for numbers 2 and 3 and you will may have more than one paragraph for numbers 1 and 4.
Notes on writing your introduction
Here are some of the questions you might try to answer when introducing your 2 chosen publications and their discourse communities (each one’s sponsoring organization/publisher, readership, scope, aim, etc.):
What organization publishes the journal/magazine?
Who belongs to this organization or who does this organization serve?
What is that organization’s purpose/mission statement?
What overall purpose does the publication (the actual journal/magazine) serve? How does the publication want to affect or change the reader?
Tell me about average lengths, or ranges of lengths: How many articles are in a typical issue of the journal? On average, how long are the articles (average page count)? 
What are some of the topics covered in the journal? (Skim through a few issues and look at the article titles to get a sense of this.)
Who subscribes to this publication? Who is the target audience? (Be specific! Not just “professionals”!) How did you determine that?
These questions are intended to help you get started with introducing your 2 chosen publications and their discourse communities; however, you’re not necessarily required to answer all of these questions in your paper. Furthermore, there may be additional points you wish to make about your chosen publications that I don’t mention here, which is fine too.
Academic Dishonesty
As with all assignments in this course, any instance of cheating will result in zero points on the assignment. Instances of intentional cheating, as determined by the instructor – may result in failing the course and being reported to the college. Cheating includes copying from online or print sources, using another person’s paper or part of a paper, using AI to write all or part of your paper, failing to cite sources in text and/or on a works cited page, or using a paper you have written for another class, among others. For the full Academic Dishonesty policy, see the Course Syllabus.
SimCheck (Turnitin)
This dropbox uses SimCheck (Turnitin) to check your work for language highly similar to that found online and within other student paper submissions. This program also detects the use of AI to generate papers. 
You’ll be able to access the Similarity Report very soon after submitting your paper, so you’ll be able to see the same report that I will. I use these similarity reports to make sure that students are appropriately indicating any direct quotes (by means of quotation marks) and correctly citing outsides sources used in the paper.
You can visit the Turnitin website for more information on SimCheck (including instructions on how to access and interpret your Similarity Score).
Submission Requirements
Submit your final Article Analysis Paper (as a Word document file) to this dropbox by the due date. Make sure you are meeting the Minimum Requirements for Grading prior to submission.

Assignment Sheet: Essay #2–Rhetorical Analysis]
For this essay, you will be performing rhetorical analysis of advertisements, either in the form of commercials or PSAs.
First, choose 2-3 visual or media examples that are related to one another, either in terms of message, topic (either a cultural value/aspect/issue or a product), and/or creator. These examples can be any kind of visual or media: a print/still advertisement, a commercial (video or audio), PSA, social media post, a billboard, political cartoons, etc. Feel free to mix and match media!
Some suggestions for these examples include:
Examples that are communicating a message on the same cultural issue (such as anti-smoking, drinking/texting and driving, domestic violence, politics, environmentalism, etc).
Examples that discuss the same cultural value (such as home ownership, career or financial success, the military, family values, patriotism, etc.), either reinforcing or challenging it.
Examples that are promoting a similar product (such as luxury or sport cars, trucks, make-up and other beauty products, food, clothing and accessories, etc.)
Examples that share the same creator and demonstrate a larger campaign for the brand, organization, or individual (such as Nike, Banksy, McDonald’s, or the CDC)
Examples that are similar in one of the above ways, but come from different time periods, allowing you to trace the evolution of these messages and how they’re communicated (such as looking at how cigarettes, families, men or women’s roles, or a brand itself like Nike are represented differently over time).
You can use any of the examples we’ve discussed so far in class or select ones of your choosing.
More topic ideas and tips for choosing them can be found here: Topic Suggestions for Essay #2
Main Guidelines:
Using these examples, you will analyze not only what these media are communicating, but: 
Who is the audience that this example intends to reach,
Who is the creator and what kind of reputation/connotations do they have?
Why is this media example created? What’s its purpose?
How does the creator use rhetorical appeals in order to express his/her message, and
How the creator reinforces the message through other rhetorical elements such as design and composition?
After analyzing each example, conclude your essay by discussing how these media compare to one another:
How are these examples, in terms of both message, composition, and other rhetorical aspects similar or different?
How effective are these media at achieving their purposes and communicating their messages? 
How do these examples relate back to American culture? What kind of cultural values, issues, or behaviors are being reinforced or addressed in these examples?
As a viewer, what was your response to these examples? Are you a member of this intended audience?
Your argument for this essay will answer the following questions: What rhetorical and visual aspects or techniques do these examples use to convey their messages? How effective are these creators at communicating their ideas on this topic? Are some more effective than others and how? What larger cultural messages or values are being communicated (either challenged or reinforced) here?
When choosing your examples, you can pull from a variety of media types (i.e. examine a PSA and a political cartoon) or from the same kind of media type. You can use examples that are from different time periods as well to show how this topic, creator, or product has changed (or stayed the same) over the years. 
To help ensure that your analysis is evidenced by a close reading of the selected media examples, you will only be allowed to use 2 outside secondary sources. You should have enough details from the examples themselves to pull from and analyze here, but outside sources may help with context or learning about the creator. As always with analysis, providing plenty of evidence from the argument itself is necessary in order to support your claims.
The final essay will be 3-4 pages long and in proper MLA format (12 point font, Times New Roman, double spaced, 1” margins on each side, page numbers and last name on each page). Your final page will count as your Works Cited page, and the examples you’re analyzing as well as any secondary sources used will need to be cited
Topic Suggestions for Essay 2
If you’re running into a mental block with a topic for this essay, below are some suggestions to begin exploring. However, you’re welcome to use a topic of your own as well, so long as it meets the guidelines of the essay.
Tips for Choosing Your Topic/Media Examples
To help you compose this essay, below are a few tips to help you with structuring and going about your analysis in this essay. Be sure to also take a look at some of the example student essays provided in this module to help you get an idea of how you can go about this essay. 
Because your essay will be a close reading/examination of 2-3 media examples, there are a few things we want to keep in mind to help ensure that we’ll have enough to discuss in this essay.
Picking media examples that relate back to a larger topic that you’re interested in is helpful for this essay, as it’ll make the process and overall analysis much more interesting and engaging. I may not be that interested in men’s deodorant advertisements, since I’m not a part of that intended audience, so I might go for examples and topics that are more relevant or interesting to me. 
Choose media examples that are complex enough to not only warrant analyzing, but have enough components to actually discuss. If the example you choose is too simple, you’ll find it harder to talk about it in detail. But don’t be fooled: there are images that may appear simple and minimal, but carry a lot in terms of implicit message, design choices, the role of the creator and audience, etc. (like that VW “I’m in…” auto-complete print ad we looked at). Before you commit to an example, try to run through those different analysis steps to see if you’ll have things to talk about with it.
Choose media examples are in someway related to one another, but not too similar. For example, if I choose 2 advertisements, one for Mercedes and one for BMW, that are extremely similar in terms of design, message, etc., I’ll likely find myself repeating a lot of information (“Both ads feature grey cars; both ads put the car in an urban setting; both ads have short, to-the-point text that emphasizes the car’s speed and performance; both are luxury and performance brands”, etc.). Differences are just as interesting to analyze as similarities, so make sure that you’ve chosen examples that allow you to discuss multiple aspects of each.

Essay Prompt:
Rhetorically analyze Stanley Milgram′s article, ″The Perils of ObedienceLinks to an external site..″ The most important thing to remember is that you are NOT arguing with the author, or commenting on the topic. I want you to identify the purpose of the writing, and provide an analysis on his use of each of the appeals (ethos, logos, and pathos), including which one you think he used the most or most successfully. Here are some rhetorical questions from our slides to help you develop your paragraphs:
What is the rhetorical situation?
What occasion gives rise to the need or opportunity for persuasion?
Who is the author/speaker and what are his/her credentials?
How does the author or speaker appeal to reason? To emotion? To logic?
What is the author′s intention?
What kind of style and tone is used and for what purpose?
Does the message/speech/text succeed in fulfilling the author′s intentions?
Why is it successful or unsuccessful of achieving what the author set out to do (NOT convincing you as an individual)
Look at style, tone, delivery- NOT whether or not you agree with the message.
What does the nature of the communication reveal about the culture that produced it?
Why does this document exist in this way, in our society?

Instructions:
I would like to see the following elements in your essay:
Your Introduction paragraph should:
introduce the full article title and author by full name, with a brief summary of the author′s main point/argument
be free from personal pronouns!
end with your comprehensive thesis statement
Your thesis should be one sentence at the end of your introduction that lists/summarizes your main points in the order they appear in your body paragraphs. If done correctly, someone should be able to read just your one-sentence thesis and understand what your entire paper is about.
Each Body Paragraph (3) should include:
a topic sentence that clearly states the main point of the paragraph
one supporting quote for body paragraph one w/ in-text citation
analysis of the quote/point you are making
Your conclusion should
answer the “So what? Who cares?” questions- how does your analysis reflect on the bigger issue?
NOT include quotes or new information
Your completed Works Cited page for the assigned article ONLY

Requirements:
Your final draft should be 2 to 3 full pages in length, in 9th edition MLA format, and respond originally and appropriately to the prompt. Your paper should follow a traditional 5 paragraph essay: Introduction, 3 Body paragraphs, and Conclusion. You may have a minimum of three body paragraphs and a maximum of five, as long as your topics do not overlap. You should have at least three direct quotes/paraphrases from the article (one in each body paragraph) followed by an in-text citation, and a Works Cited page.

You have to pick a short story from the textbook “Literature To Go” 4th Edition, I don’t care which short story you pick but just pick one of them because that’s what the essay will be written about 

Essay #4: Research Paper
This assignment is meant to develop and hone your 
research skills. This paper 
will exemplify your abilities 
to choose your sources, use research, and incorporate 
them into your discussion 
effectively. Choose a topic to research and write 
argumentatively about. This is a general prompt, so take care to focus your topic on 
something manageable. 
Choose a topic you’re 
interested in and form your argument based on your 
research. Your argument 
should illustrate the body of knowledge that already 
exists, and what new/
different argument/analysis you are adding to the 
conversation. Present 
yourself as a reliable source by citing your information, 
analyzing the material, and 
synthesizing logical 
conclusions from your 
investigation. In order to do 
this, you must choose the 
best 4 sources (at 
minimum) that you can find. Make sure to choose articles that also counter your point of view, which demonstrates that you are well informed 
and aware of the topic’s 
multiple perspectives. 
Some points to consider:
– Use reliable sources for 
your research of the topic, 
but also think about the 
other areas of research such as psychology, sociology, 
history, or politics that are 
related. 
– Demonstrate why this 
topic is important, and why 
there has been controversy surrounding the issue. What 
is the topic’s significance to you? 
– Refrain from taking on too 
large of an argument; rather, choose a specific facet or 
element of an argument to make the topic more 
manageable. 
– Do research before 
forming a hypothesis to 
remain open to many 
possible arguments. 
– Arguments should be 
complex, this is what makes them interesting. Why aren’t the reasons for, or against 
your argument cut and dry?  
– Sources should not be 
more than 10 years old to 
ensure your perspective of 
the issue is current. 
*Refrain from these topics:
legalization of marijuana, 
abortion, and same-sex 
marriage (unless you are 
going to discuss the current 
legalization of it). These 
topics have been overdone, so please choose a different topic.
This paper is to be in MLA format; size 12 font in 
Times (New Roman); 
double spaced; black ink; 
minimum of 2,000 words minimum (not including the text from the works 
cited page), 2,250 words maximum; 
minimum of four (max of five) credible sources cited in MLA format on the works cited page. 
Your introduction to 
possible topics is due by Sunday, June 16th at 
11:59 pm on Canvas. 
The final version of your 2,000-word (minimum) essay is due by Sunday, June 23rd by 11:59 pm to Canvas. Please note that late submissions for this essay will not be 
accepted; no 
exceptions. 
Optional guided topics (if 
you’re having a hard time 
choosing a subject, here are some samples):
Research a specific topic 
that deals with the subject of education. We’ve discussed college throughout the 
semester, but there is so 
much left to explore. Here 
are some discussions that
may be explored:
The drop-out rate of high schoolers 
Female vs. male
Homeschooling
Public vs. private 
education
Access to education
Online learning
These are only a few 
examples of topics that can be explored. Think about 
others that you are 
interested in, and start your 
research.  

Rerwite the attached essay in your own words so that TurnItIn or other Ai detectors do not detect AI in the paper.
ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS: “For our first essay, you will be analyzing a written text, an article. You will need to locate an article that presents an opinion or perspective and perform an analysis on the article. Here are the steps you’ll follow:
1. Locate an article or movie (i.e. documentary) that makes an argument.
The article you use must be an argument or analysis. Begin your Textual Analysis paper with a very brief summary of the article—one small paragraph will be sufficient. This could be in your introduction, though be aware your introduction should still have a solid thesis statement; it may be the paragraph after your introduction.
In this summary, include the title of the article/movie and the author.
Move then to the Argument Analysis. You may analyze an argument in several ways.
The claim or thesis. Evaluate or comment on the merits of the claim. Does the claim make sense? Is it clear? (If you can’t find a claim either it’s a summary or a very poorly written argument.) Is it logical? Does the rest of the article prove the claim, or is the statement left unsubstantiated?
The evidence. Evaluate or comment on the merits of the evidence. Is there sufficient evidence to support the claim? Is the evidence relevant to the claim? Is the evidence credible.
Your essay should still follow good essay structure with an introduction/thesis, body paragraphs, and a conclusion. Your essay should have a Works Cited page with at least the article/documentary you are reviewing. 
Warning: Be careful! This is an ARGUMENT review. Make sure you understand what is being argued and point out the fallacies or potential problems.”

Drama story between a page and a half and 2 and a half pages long. I am a tennis player from Serbia that traveled a lot in Greece(Halkidiki), Turkey( Antalya), Kenya(Nairobi), Bosnia, Montenegro, Bulgaria(Burgas), Hungary(Budapest), USA(Miami, Kentucky, Atlanta) and I write pretty simple because Im not a writer so my piece should look too good with fancy words and if there can be dialogue that would be great. Also, I need a full page of intro for this piece for my portfolio about my creative work. It should discuss the craft components of your writing in that genre (why you did what you did in that piece from a craft standpoint) rather than summarizing your piece. Again, no summaries, please. Thank you!

MLA FORMAT
Topic: Our lives are often determined by the choices we make. Think of a time when you made a choice that impacted your life, for better or for worse. What would have happened if you had made a different choice? Where would you be today? Who would you be today?
Started Draft: 
Life has a funny way of throwing us into a spiral like rollercoaster doesn’t it? Every choice we make in life has a huge impact on our future and what our life will look like. Lack of guidance can really leave you feeling lost. Coming from a home of divorce during my most crucial years (teenage years) really had a negative impact on me. I was unintentionally forced to grow up extremely fast. There is absolutely no one to blame, these are just the cards life has dealt for me. During that time I truly thought that I was ready to be independent and start my own life.  I started working at a very young age (14-15) having to essentially provide for my needs made me feel like I was mature and grown up. At the age of 18 I became pregnant with my first child. I was just a year out of high school hadn’t experienced life to its fullest potential, however I was in desperate need to be on my own and start a life with the father of my unborn child.
