ball point 1 & 2

The policy that Ball State enforces is set to encourage and increase better writing skills. The writing assignments given throughout the semester give us the opportunity to rhetorically analyze text not only in the classroom aspect, but outside as well. Throughout this course I will be able to apply the fundamentals of rhetoric to my research in hopes of obtaining a higher level of thinking process through my understanding of what rhetoric is and how it is used. As students, we will emply critical thinking while evaluating and analyzing our research. I think it's important to apply the fundaments of rhetoric in anything you are doing, and this course will give me the chance to experience and better understand how to do so. I think reflecting on our writing is very beneficial in improving your skills, and reflection on your work is a huge aspect of the policy. You are encourged to reflect on your relationship with diverse audiences and on the ways your participation affects the context of writing, all which are important in improving your writing.
