WRTG 328W - Writing, Style and Technology [GEWI] What is “style” and how does it impact the rhetorical effectiveness of writing? In this advanced writing course, students study 1) Different definitions and assumptions of “style” as it relates to writing and rhetoric, and also how style has changed. 2) How styles change based on genre, purpose, and media. 3) The practices of advanced composition and rhetoric in considering the writing process and revision.
Projects include stylistic/rhetorical analyses of a variety of different texts (print, advertisements, videos, websites, etc.), a comparison of different style guides and writing advice texts, and an analysis of revision practices.
