Application for two days

Newton’s second law of motion states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass, expressed by the formula

$F_{net}=ma$

=. It signifies that a greater force increases acceleration, while greater mass reduces it

. The acceleration vector points in the same direction as the net force.

Workshop: Planning Assignment 1

Part One: Plan Your Work (Due Wednesday)

First, upload a copy of the text you plan to analyze. You can do this by inserting, attaching, or providing a link to it in a reply to this forum.

Then, post answers to the following questions:

• What is the basic history/background information about the text you chose? How does this text respond to an opportunity to make change?
• Why did you choose this text? What do you find interesting or compelling about it?
• Who is the writer? Does this person have expertise or credentials that would be appealing for a particular group of people? Remember a writer could be a group of people (e.g. a company, multiple authors). Does the writer have any ulterior motives/biases that may have influenced the rhetorical design of the text?
• Who seems to be the audience for the message? How do you know (be specific)?
• What argument do you think the text is making? What message is the text trying to communicate? What is the purpose of the text?
• Do you think the argument is effective in communicating its message to its audience? In general, did the writer succeed or fail in this rhetorical situation? In other words, was this a fitting response? How do you know? What rhetorical components of the text are especially compelling (consider rhetorical appeals, methods of development, etc.) Provide at least one example of a rhetorical element or appeal that you find interesting. In a few sentences analyze this example by showing how it appeals to the intended audience.
• What genre did the writer choose for this text? Does that genre seem to fit the message and audience?

Part Two: Peer Feedback (Due Sunday)

Read and respond to one of your classmate’s planning posts. Post a reply to your classmate that answers the following questions:

• Does your classmate provide an accurate description of the rhetorical situation of the text?
• Do you think your classmate identifies the most interesting rhetorical/stylistic elements of the text to analyze? Should they focus on anything else? Is anything missing from their analysis?
• Clarify or disagree with one of your classmate’s initial points of analysis.
