Reflection on Project 1 Draft

Reflection on Project 1 Draft

During the stage of the peer editing process, I reviewed Addie's QRG and Rosa's QRG.
In this blog post I will be reflecting on the drafting process.

Audience
  • The audience that I am trying to reach with my argument is my instructor and my classmates, as they are the ones most likely to reading it.
  • I think that the expectations of my audience is that I have done my research and provide sources that back up what I am saying. I do meet these expectations because I have done my research and I have lots of sources.
  • I need to give my audience enough information so that they understand the issue, who the major players, what is going on in the issue, and what is being done about the issue. As this is a quick reference guide I need to give the audience a lot of background information on the topic.
  • The language that is suitable for my audience is informal but still professional. This is not a formal guide for the audience
  • I should use an informing tone in my QRG because that is what I am doing. I am informing my audience of this topic so an informing tone will make it easier for the audience to follow and learn.
Context
  •  There are not really strict formatting requirements for this assignment except that the writer should have subtitles and images. I will meet this formatting when I add images.
  • The content requirements were to use many different types of media to inform of a controversy in an individuals major. They had to include all the sides involved, who the major speakers were, and what they are saying. I do meet this requirement I believe.
  • The draft reflecting the skill I learned in class of embedding a quote into a paragraph. It also shows my ability to analyze an article.
  • I have not had any grammatical issues highlighted by my teacher but I have addressed grammatical issues that I have had in the past.
Through the peer editing process I was able to get my mistakes highlighted and I was able to fix them.
