Writing Skills II, Homework for Week 7

For homework, please:
1. Read through and annotate the articles on pgs. 73-77 in terms of a rhetorical analysis for both and jot down notes to the questions featured on pgs. 77-78 (basic notes suffice, you do not need to write out full sentences).
2. Consider how you would reorganize the letter of motivation distributed in class today (you might use this example as a model: https://owl.english.purdue.edu/media/pdf/20061113033354_639.pdf). Using that organization, think of details from your own biography that would make a future letter of motivation of yours stand out. Remember: this is a space for creativity as well! This, for example, is my favorite cover letter of all time: http://www.lettersofnote.com/2012/03/i-like-words.html
3. The next deadline for written assignments is class meetings in Week 9 (December 12th-16th). The next assignment is a rhetorical analysis of one of your argumentation essays from Writing Skills I. If you did not complete the first assignment (the rhetorical analysis of an article of your choice), you can also turn it in in your respective class meeting in Week 9.
