WRITING TASKS• Return to the modules and consider the rhetorical situations of
the writing tasks across modules. In small groups, discuss and complete the table asking for the elements of the rhetorical situation of each task.
Context (which includes some conflict or need [exigence])—What occasion/need calls for argument/persuasion? What issue does it address?
Actor—Who are students called to be in the situation created by the prompt (expert, teacher, colleague, friend, sibling . . .)?
Purpose—What are students to accomplish in their writing? Why? Audience—Whom are they trying to persuade? Medium (for our purposes, usually a form of writing)—How should
they be communicating?What does thinking of these tasks in these terms add to your
understanding?
