Below I will be discussing my project two outline. It was helped written by the Writing Public Lives excerpt given to us.
Reading what was written in the Writing Public Lives was, for the most part, pretty helpful! Having it start of by breaking down a rhetorical analysis piece-by-piece was extremely helpful. Personally, rhetorical analysis is not my strongest field. The section breaks it down by purpose, thesis, organization and evidence. The one I struggle the most with is find the evidence. Whereas the other parts come easier, analyzing pieces to find the evidence needed is extremely difficult for me. The article also goes over argument, however, I do not see an issue with forming an argument. The section that helped out the most overall was section analysis of an entire paper. By breaking down each section/paragraph allows for the reader, myself, to understand and interpret each piece seperatly and more coherently.

Introduction
Opening up my paper I am going to introduce the nationwide issue of job outsourcing. This will lead into the smaller and more focused subject of Politicians, like David Perdue, outsoucing jobs and being proud of it. I will be using the author of the articles side take on the subject throughout most of the paper.
Thesis
As we are in still a drafting process, my thesis is still in need of adjustment. However, it will surround how outsourcing jobs from our country has a very negative effect on our country.
The American Dream is claimed to have died. However, it is not dead, it has just been outsourced to other countries. Many politicians, once major businessmen, have been found to be guilty of outsourcing american jobs for cheaper labor costs. However, politicians like David Purdue have been quoted that they are"proud" of their outsourcing of hard earned american jobs.
Body Paragraphs
1. General Statistics of Outsourcing in the year the article was written (2014)
-Discuss the specific company that David Purdue was apart of
- Discuss how and where he outsourced jobs too
2. Discuss the Context of the situation
- why was he outsourcing
-how wad this brought to media attention
-discuss any sensitivity/insensitivity towards the subject
3. Tone of the Author towards subject'
- Angry/irritated towards subject
-provides more and more negative evidence about the subject
Main Claim
Perdue should not be proud of his job outsourcing as well as anyone else who claims outsourcing is a good thing.
Conclusion
My conclusion will start off by reflecting on my thesis. Then will be followed up by my own and the articles authors takes on David Purdue and outsourcing.
REFLECTION
Looking at Hallye's and Isaac's outlines, I was very content to see that I had my formatting down as well as the content. I realize that content will differ by person, but as for a general Idea, it was good to see that my own reflected the others. When it came to the Writing Public Lives, I was also happy to see that I had similar opinions on certain pieces of writing. |
It sounds like you have most of the formatting and content of your paper down! I really like how you have organized this outline, as it seems to clearly follow a logical progression. One thing that I didn't really see mentioned explicitly was the specific rhetorical strategies you're going to talk about. You hinted at it throughout the outline, but it might be helpful to your reader if you explicitly state which strategies you'll be analyzing. Good job overall!
ReplyDeleteMaybe mention more specifically how you are going to analyze the article, rather than basic topics. You seem to have most of it down other than the specific rhetorical ideas. Also, not to be nit-picky, but try outlining in proper outline form, it really helps with organization! Great job, though.
