Public Discussion

compose a 3-4-paragraph discussion post in which you do the following:

  • Identify at least one example from the sample profile where effective specific details are incorporated. Explain why you find the examples you have chosen to be effective. Please use quotation marks to signal the specific words/sentences from the sample profile. 
  • Identify one example where primary source information (such as interview excerpts) is used to enhance the profile for readers. Again, use quotation marks to signal the words/sentences you have used for this example. Make sure to explain how this example is effective for readers.
  • Discuss the key takeaways from these sample profiles for you. What techniques do you hope to employ in your own profile draft? What techniques do you plan to avoid in your own draft? What have you learned from these sample profiles that will help you draft your own profile?

Heres an example discussion post 

I chose the profile titled “Local Personality Profile: Johnny Ashmore” by Neil Shurley. This profile is about a man named Johnny Ashmore, who is very well known in his community for being a “remarkable, giving person” as described by Joyce Medlin, who has known Johnny for a long time.

 

     An effective example from the profile is when it explains how Johnny, even while spreading care and kindness to the community, is legally blind. As the writer explains it, “Watching him work, witnessing his easy interactions with all sorts of people, youd be hard pressed to guess that Johnny is legally blind”. The article states that Johnny is a grocery store bagger, and frequently helps the customers bag and take their groceries back to their car. The example where it explains that Johnny is legally blind makes it sound remarkable that he can even work let alone help customers take their groceries back to their car. By showing readers of this profile that Johnny can do these things despite being legally blind, the author is utilizing pathos in this profile. This shows the audience that Johnny is a topic worth talking about which in my opinion, makes this example effective.

 

     In the article, right of the bat readers are hit with a quotation directly from Johnny. It states, Ive always tried to treat people the way Id like to be treated… Thats probably one reason I know so many people and so many people know me. This is the reason I picked this profile to write about, because right away it caught my interest that this profile might be about somebody I’d like to read more on. In an introduction, you want to draw readers in right away because it might attract them to read the rest of the article. This is why I believe adding this quotation is an effective example of a primary source information.

 

     For sure, a key takeaway I want to bring with me is utilizing the rhetorical concepts we learned about in project one, as well as other examples of rhetorical methods used in the sample profiles. As explained earlier, I found a use of pathos in the profile I chose to write about, but I will further analyze the various profiles to find other examples of rhetorical methods used as a basis moving forward into project two. One flaw that I found in the profile I wrote about was that the author used too many breaks in his paragraphs. Some of the time, he did not focus on key point in a single paragraph, and instead hopped around with various topics and inserting quotations that didn’t make a lot of sense as I was reading. I hope to stay focused on a single topic for each paragraph in project two.
