ENGL-216 Week 4 Discussion: Informal and Formal Reports, Proposals, And Persuasion
Using Chapters 10-11, compare and contrast formats for formal and informal reports. Describe an example of either kind of report you have actually used or locate one on the internet. Explain how the document meets (or fails to meet) the standard described in our text. Is it more or less difficult to compose a solicited or an unsolicited proposal? Why? Describe a situation in which you would compose an unsolicited proposal. Who is your imagined audience—internal or external? How might you persuade your reader to agree to your proposal? What ethical or legal issues must you anticipate?
Note: Each week, you are to compose discussion in written form and to provide a narrated slide presentation. Here is a good practice to follow:
STATUS
- Meet with your peers and brainstorm the assignment together. Freely exchange ideas in your group to help each other achieve the best outcomes.
- On your own, create a short document that responds to the discussion questions (and provides the basis of your narrated presentation)
- Organize your ideas into bullet points on your slides
- Use visual images to support your text
- Gracefully narrate your ideas in a 1-2 minute slide presentation.
Respond to your classmates’ presentations in writing, audio, or video.
