Essay #3 Potential Essay Proposal

For my third essay, I have decided to stick with the topic regarding coronavirus and the publics’ misconceptions regarding the disease. In my previous essay I’ve addressed how in social media there are cases where the audience can misinterpret the information you are providing and therefore reaching a conclusion that is incorrect. Therefore, for my third essay I want to make sure the audience I will be targetting will have little to no misconceptions towards the information that is being provided. This way, the audience I want to target can take the information the way it is supposed to be taken in. Therefore, For my third essay I want to use ads/posters that can be seen when a person is scrolling through social media going to work, going to work on a public transportation system, or simply strolling through the streets of their city. I feel like this genre is very suitable for the type of essay I am trying to write because one of the main focuses I’m trying to achieve is to get rid of misconceptions that may lead to large consequences. By picking a genre that can be shown in public areas where many people will access allows me to put my work/writing in an area that is exposed to many people which will allow me to achieve my goal to rid of misconceptions regarding the violation of human rights resulted from the coronavirus as well as the misconceptions of masks and their effectibility as well.

    The choice to use advertisements or posters is good for your subject of coronavirus. It is a great way to correct any misinformation that people may have on this matter. The use of these genres in public areas is also a great way to get your message around.

    I really like how you started off already knowing the goals you have for your audience when they read your essay, I think that is very important when figuring out your essay structure. I also agree with Edward when it comes to using ads. During this pandemic, there have been many different advertisements on how to stay safe or even ads that could scare you and show you the impact the virus could have. I think those are very important when explaining the full effect of the virus.
