Unit 1 Revision For ENGL 313, Rhetorical Web Design

671 Words3 Pages

This document proposes a Unit 1 revision for ENGL 313, Rhetorical Web Design at Iowa State University. The goal is to improve the first weeks of the course to fit the skill levels of the beginner students to enhance their learning of web design.

1.2 Background

Many students enrolled in ENGL 313 have minimal knowledge about rhetorical web design, which employs rhetorical and web design principles to create an interactive and responsive website. Because there is only one course on rhetorical web design, the class addresses a wide range of topics including various front-end frameworks and scripting languages. However, in order to cover even the most advanced topics, the course moves through the material quickly. Consequently, this makes it difficult for beginners as they struggle to apply even foundational concepts learned in the beginning of the course when more ideas are being taught as the class progresses. …show more content…

The issue is, these assignments are extraordinarily time-consuming and move at fast-pace, which can be overwhelming to amateur students. Additionally, improvements could be made to direct students to the most valuable tools to teach concepts and techniques to maximize their time efficiently, rather than read four chapters and watching five hours worth of videos without knowing what is necessary to learn.

In sum, units need to be restructured to provide students with specific and vital information to teach coding processes that gives students enough time to practice and enhance their skills of applying foundational concepts before adding new material. Making changes in the beginning of the course will only provide a pathway to success for the rest of the course.

Barry Adams State Of Digital Rhetorical Analysis

472 Words | 2 Pages

Barry Adams, in his article entitled “State of Digital” , does not blatently ever state that he is against neuromarketing but gives a strong suggestion throughout that that is his stance. He gives the current status of the situation and follows that with the questions that raise in his mind of if neuromarketing is ethical and where the line can be drawn to stop companies from potentially controlling every customer to buy their product. I believe that Adams proves his point very well as it is clear that he does have a belief on this topic, but he is not to overpowering with his opinion where it detracts from the validity of his claim. He doesn’t even ever give his opinion but uses rhetorical question to get the reader to go through the same thoughts that he went through to come to his conclusion. He also appeals to the consumers and the marketing professionals with pathos to how neuromarketing could be considered unethical and why something needs to be
