PROMPT: Write an analysis (minimum of at least 4 full pages) in which you carefully critique the rhetorical tactics the writer uses in their argument. For this assignment please analyze the elements in an argument (claim, support, warrant, logical fallacy, inductive or deductive logic, etc.) and rhetorical strategies (the author’s use of ethos, pathos, logos, metaphor, irony, definition, biased diction, etc.) from the assigned article. The assignment is based on the premise that all writing is aimed at a specific audience for a specific purpose. Your task with this assignment is to determine the exact goal of the piece of writing and to explore, on paper, the strategies and rhetorical devices used by the writer.

General Directions: Your essay should be thesis-centered, and follow the format of evaluation that ultimately makes an argument:

“X author _____________________ (successfully / somewhat successfully / unsuccessfully / effectively / somewhat effectively / ineffectively) convinces his/her audience of X argument using ___________________________ (these specific rhetorical tactics).

EXAMPLE:

“Jonathan Rauch is successful in using a variety of rhetorical tactics to inform the unknowledgeable public and persuade them to support biotechnology. He uses various sources with background knowledge therefore appealing to logic, while also using a narrative style to appeal emotionally to a less scientifically inclined audience. The writer establishes credibility and discusses counterarguments to effectively pander to this audience because he puts a scientifically complex subject into simple terms for the reader.”

You’ll want to summarize the author’s ideas in the introduction and immediately identify the core audience the author is trying to convince. Your essay should then analyze specific rhetorical strategies that the author employs in his or her argument and explain how each has helped to convince or not convince the author’s intended audience.

Getting Started: Before you being your analysis, identify the target audience. Who is the author trying to convince? Are you part of that group? Are you convinced? Why or why not?

Format: Essays should be typed and saved as a Microsoft Word Document (.doc) file, and they will be graded according to three general criteria: adherence to the assignment, quality of content, and skill of English usage. Every essay should be in MLA format: double-spaced—including the title and your setup information (name, course, instructor, date)—and have 1-inch margins all around.

Hi there , I want you to write two essays from any of the three topics in the attachment (500 words each).

Choose two topics and write two essays. Please don’t write any quotes.

Please see attachments for details:

You are a correctional case manager working in a minimum security state facility for male offenders. You oversee a caseload of 100 offenders. This week, you have 8 annual assessments and 10 security assessments due. The institutional hearings officer needs you to serve as the witness in 3 institutional hearings by Friday and has asked you when you can fit them in. Transportation runs on Friday, and you are expecting 10 incoming offenders and 4 to transfer out. The warden has asked you to handle the intake for the incoming offenders, which should take about 2 hours, depending on when the transportation bus arrives. You also need to prepare the institutional records for the 4 outgoing offenders.

You need to find 2 new offenders that will qualify to work on road crew. This involves reviewing presentence investigations, security assessments, treatment assessments, and interviewing the potential workers. The road crew supervisor says he has some big projects coming up and needs the new workers immediately.

You also need to get rooms set up for the 12-step meetings for the alcoholics on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, which involves setting up chairs and getting the coffee ready for brewing. A local church group is visiting on Thursday at 2 pm and will need a staff escort while inside the facility. A local high school will be touring the facility on Friday morning. They will also need a staff escort while touring the facility. You also need to choose a few offenders that can speak to the students prior to their tour.

You have a treatment team meeting every Friday from 2–4 to discuss case management issues with other treatment and security staff. The dog team, which you lead, holds weekly meetings on Mondays, and the warden requires that you spend at least 1 hour on the dorm each day.

Develop your weekly action plan to address all of your tasks and meetings. Make sure to address the following in 3–5 pages:

• Keep in mind that urgent issues, whether important or not important, will occur throughout the day.
• Discuss how you would plan your week to ensure that you get all of your important tasks accomplished.
• Are there areas you could ask for assistance with? If so, who would you ask?
• Are there tasks or meetings that you could choose not to attend?
• Which tasks are the most important, and which may be able to wait until you have more time for them?

he Product Life Cycle (PLC) is a vital component of the marketing

plan. Monitoring products and services as they flow through this process

helps marketing managers adjust their marketing strategies to keep

products and services thriving for as long as possible. Monitoring this

cycle helps companies and organizations continue to maximize the value

of their products and services with their target over time. The purpose

of this assignment is to give students the opportunity to understand how

each stage in the PLC creates a need for adjustment to marketing

strategies and allows students to assess what action(s) need to be

taken.

Scenario: You currently work as the marketing manager of your favorite company/organization and manage the success of one of its products or services. Your responsibility is to monitor the stages of the Product Life Cycle (PLC) and adjust the marketing strategies as needed for your product to thrive for as long as possible. At each stage, you assess changes you need to make to the product, price strategy, as well as competition and profit.

• Develop a slide setting the theme and goals of the presentation.
• Define and discuss the PLC concept and its importance to marketing managers.
• Define and discuss what role pricing strategy has in marketing and how marketing mangers decide what strategy to use.
• Describewhat company/organization and product/service you are using.
• Create one slide for each of the four stages of the PLC describing the stage and analyzes the implications each stage may have on price strategy, product, competition, and profit for your selected product/service. Use the product/service you selected to illustrate each stage as it is discussed with original examples.
• Discuss the reasoning behind why the PLC is important to marketing managers and share examples of possible implications if it is not monitored.

Cite a minimum of two peer-reviewed sources with one coming from the textbook or the University Library. Use in-text citations in the presentation slides and speaker’s notes to demonstrate your research.
