Blog 12A

It is important to make sure that you pick an audience that is educated in the subject that you are talking about. If you don't teach the audience or they don't already know what the author is saying, interest will be lost when the paper is being read. Also, explaining things in full detail and giving examples helps the audience almost "put a face to a name," or make sure they understand something clearly. Definitions are helpful in the fact that you may know a word, but many people may not, so just throw the definition in their so the reader won't become lost or confused. It is just important to be clear and concise with your reader, give them detail, definitions, and examples but don't go so in depth that it confuses them. Typically the bare minimum will allow the reader to understand a concept, as well as making them want to go more in depth to the paper looking for further evidence that the author may talk about.

  1. Hello Riley. I think it is great that you are focused on the targeted audience and captivating them to the essay. I also think it will be very helpful as you give clear definitions and examples. I would suggest using your past essays or articles you have read to illustrate the definitions in this essay as well. One other thing that may help is to organize the information into a classification/division type of essay. Then you can divide the information into different divisions such as introduction, body, and conclusion and then classify key tools and techniques in each. Sounds like you have a good plan though, keep up the good work!
