"Rhetorical Awareness"

Q1.    You are probably aware of the importance of Rhetorical reading thus far. I would like to know how you would evaluate your use of rhetorical reading strategies and whether you will have any plans to improve your rhetorical skills and what are the plans?

Response: Rhetorical strategies take a step beyond the text itself. What it means is that as a reader we have to think about what we are reading and make connections with our previous knowledge in order to get a better concept of what we are reading. I don't have any plans to improve my skills, I think the experience of the life would improve my skills because I would learn more and it would be easier for me to use those strategies.


Q2.    You are also expected to have a good understanding about Writer-Based Prose and Reader-Based Prose and the difference between them lies in the use of Rhetorical Strategies. I would like to know how you would differentiate the use of rhetorical strategies in writing (from reading as above) and what will be your plans to improve your rhetorical strategies in writing.

Response: Writer-Based prose is a description of this under transformed mode of verbal expression. In function, writer-based prose is a verbal expression writer by a writer to himself. On the other hand Reader-Based prose is a deliberate try to communicate something to a reader and creates a shared language context between writer and reader, and also offers the reader an issue-centered rhetorical structure rather of the writers discovery process and finally the Reader-based prose reflects the purpose of the writer`s thought. I think experience would help me to express myself in a better way and get better in my rhetorical strategies.
