Welcome to my blog!
This is my rhetoric course blog for the fall 2018 semester!
What is Major Writing #1 all about?
In the first writing assignment, I will be conducting an interview with someone who is advanced in the field of psychology, using questions about his or her work and writing. I will be analyzing three academic and three non-academic writings from him or her to get an idea of what professional writing looks like from the field. This assignment is very appealing to me because I am interested in what writing from the psychology field looks like and what I will, hopefully, be writing and reading at some point in my college career. Similar to this assignment, I have done papers that are comparable in the sense of conducting an interview and analyzing the results but I have never analyzed writings to go along with it other than when doing research papers. Questions: How long should the interview be? Do the writings need to come from the interviewee? Should we analyze the writing before the interview to generate questions about the writing or after?
