For essay #3 I’d like to focus my writing around an audience who is somewhat familiar to the topic. General readers can also be pointed in the direction of my essay, however the targeted audience are people who can relate to my topic and but not limited to people that can make a difference within the issue. For example, government officials, news broadcasters, ect. I would want people of all ages to be my intended audience age range due to the fact that the younger generation will most likely grow up with immigrant abuse still being an issue, and the elder population being educated with this issue for a long time. I want my audience to feel the pain and suffering that immigrant detainees felt when being stripped away from their families and treated like criminals under inhuman conditions. In response to my writing topic I also want my readers to want to further their understanding of the topic and what to feel the urgency to speak about and make change towards this issue. I hope that my visual representation gives off a sense of feeling and really touches the audience and exactly show what is the problem. I also hope that my visual images educate them on how individuals are being treated in these detention facilities, and not the propaganda the news shows. Due to my images being presented to give a sense of feeling the rhetorical device that I’d like to use is Pathos because that way my audience will have a sense of emotion when looking at the horrific images of what detainees experience. That way my audience can really understand my point and the social issue in today’s society. I want my audience to understand that individuals should not be treated with such cruel treatment and inhuman conditions with detainees starting with the age newborn to adult.

For this essay, my intended audience is primarily high school students who are beginning to think about the path they will want to take after graduation. For the most part, my audience revolves around students who are thinking about the various reasons to continue their education through college in order to obtain a degree in a certain field. Those who are unsure of college would also benefit from this because it will provide them with important information regarding college. Through my compositions, I would like my audience to become familiar with the benefits of attending college and thus attempt to persuade the students towards attempting to apply to a college or various colleges. In order to obtain this goal, I believe using visual genres generally appeals to younger generations. Many students do not like to read lengthy papers discussing various details and so, using visuals such as a poster or an advertisement allows me to provide my ideas in a simple and efficient manner. Furthermore, posters and advertisements are easy to access through schools or public transportation for many high school students. In order to engage the students in the thought process of college, I will use the rhetorical strategy of logos through simple and direct statistics or facts about the economic and social benefits of getting a college degree. The whole reason for this is to attract students into wanting to apply to college, and so, providing the benefits of attending college through visual genres will allow the students to keep this information in their minds when researching more about college in their own time.

In my discussion of the topic of school bullying, my intended audience is educators, as well as students and parents. Students are the main group that suffer the most from school bullying. In addition, there are educators and parents who are the “keys” to saving students from going astray and providing them with better protection and help.

I would like to educate my audience more about the dangers of school bullying and the effects of school bullying on society. To warn more students to stay away from school bullying and to remind students that serious school bullying may be a criminal offense. Also communicate to educators and parents the reality of bullying cases, observe changes in their children more closely, improve their own educational attitudes, and learn solutions to prevent school bullying.

The first way I wanted to explain my topic was to use the poster style, looking for relatively exaggerated images that would convey a cautionary but not serious style. In addition, I would like to show how negative the effects of school violence can be with some graphic illustrations of real cases or investigative reports, as well as some testimonies of victims who have been injured and how it happened. In this way, we can get parents to value the education and protection of their children. It also appears more authentic and conveys a rhetorical strategy of ethos. These posters can be posted in all corners of the community to draw attention to social issues and draw attention to them.

The next step is to exhibit the dangers of school bullying in the form of advertisements. Advertisements can better promote the negative effects of school bullying. A rhetorical strategy of pathos is used to show how the victim is experiencing the bullying. Advertisements can also be used to better promote effective responses to prevent bullying. Demonstrating some legal knowledge about school bullying and a professional perspective on prevention and protection is also a solution. We can see these advertisements on our cell phones, computers, or TV. Social networking is not only convenient, but it is also easier to be seen and then to pay attention to cases related to school bullying. Regardless of the genre of the posters or advertisements, I hope to convey a message of staying away from school bullying or solving the problem of preventing school bullying, and I hope that this problem can be reduced in society and a sound education system can be found to prevent school bullying.

My inquiry-based research essay was written in regards to the topic of Psychedelic legalization and effects they have. I think for this type of paper I want to focus my audience primarily on the US government and through that the rest of its citizens. I chose such a broad scope because I think too narrow of a focus will render my voice useless because of my chosen genres. Based on my type of topic I feel like it is important to try to reach the “man” directly. The U.S. Government is a body made up of thousands of different voices with different opinions but all tend to have very little time. A poster and a political cartoon have been used in America’s history to both criticize and spread awareness and I think in this instance it is no different. I would like to use my voice to outline some flaws in the legislative system. I think criticism is at times the most eye-catching form of media for the populace and what the populace focuses on the governing body at least catches wind of. To achieve this I will use primarily ethos and logos. Ethos by showing the illogical legislation placed under psychedelic substances that have led to great grief in American families and wasted potential in the medical fields. Ethos by showing, not necessarily my ethics, but the ethics that branch all of us together. In a more clear sense, we are undeniably human beings and no matter our differences we are still interlocked by this fact and I want to focus on that to strengthen my arguments.
