1. For my major (Public Health), there is a Bachelor of Arts option as well as a Bachelor of Science. Would you prefer that my interview source is of the same program that I am pursuing or would either work?
ReplyDelete2. How will the criteria that we are being evaluated on be weighted?
3. I'm confused on the reading examples we are supposed to ask for. Are they just anything concerning the field of study? readings that they have studied? related current events?

Rhetoric: Analytical Report
The purpose of this assignment is to interview a professional in my field of interest. My major is the Radiation Sciences. In this assignment my job is to ask these professionals specific questions on academic and non-academic writing practices. Another purpose is to create a more in depth understanding of the style of writing. I need to concentrate on topics such as structure, language, and visual elements. I need to incorporate some rhetorical techniques in this report. An important way to show examples of a such field is to use your online resources as well. In my high school classes I used to interview my fellow classmates about certain topics and write a report on it. After the interview it is very important to write down the information that you collected to get a better understanding. Have a prepared list of questions to ask.
