Genre Analysis for Grant Proposal

Overall, the structure of the grant proposal flows well.  It starts off with its intent, and each subsection heading stated in bold shows where new content/aspects of the proposal begin.  The proposal opens strong with its purpose and follows up well with detailed reasoning of why they're making this proposal and how it's going to fix the issue.  All the personal information of audience and the author's occupation are listed clearly on the title page, with further detailing of the author's background later in the proposal.  Further down into the proposal after the introduction statements and references, there's a clear outline of goals, the intended timeline for execution of this program, and how the budget would be distributed.  The proposal exudes confidence, with the author being very sure in what exactly will happen should they receive the grant - for good reason, since you should have confidence in what you're doing with regards to something like this.

  It’s not exactly something I experienced recently, but it still affects me to this day. Back in 2021, the new expansion for one of my favorite games came out:  Final Fantasy XIV, Endwalker.   Unlike a lot of my friends who played at the time, I had a job, so I couldn’t rush through like everyone doing it non-stop all day, and I ended up taking my pace and really paying attention to the story and the overall message of the arc:  To live is to suffer, but there is also no joy without suffering.   We’ve all experienced some really tough times in our lives.  The loss of a loved one, getting laid off from a job with no savings and nothing lined up, and even just struggling with mental health issues like depression.  And I’m sure that many of us have had the thought that “Life would be so much better if things like this never happened”.  If nothing bad ever happened in life, then everything would be perfect and we’d always be happy, yeah.   One o...

Response to "Environmental Justice: Writing Urban Spaces"

While I don't doubt that the SHOWED method is effective, it makes me think about how even when confronted with issues that need addressing, some people just don't want to address or fix an issue because it's not something that actively affects them.  There's always some people that, no matter what facts you put in front of them or how well-written your argument is, will never agree with what you say. One section of the reading that I'd like to analyze is the part where the one student was talking about the disparity between areas in North and Northeastern Philadelphia.  It really shines a light on how bad areas can just get worse without the proper funding, and if you live there, then chances are likely that your job doesn't pay you enough so that you can get out of there.  Meanwhile, the richer places just get richer and richer, and the gap between the two areas gets larger and larger.  For both places, it's like an Ouroboros, one with a negative outcome ...

 Response to Ashley J. Holmes' "Public Writing for Social Change" 1.  I think that social media writing can lead to social change, I know that I've seen a lot of tweets that connect to GoFundMe's or information pages on how you can do what you can to give aid to people in Palestine. 2.  To me, an academic citizen is someone who's well-informed beyond the average person and does a lot of their own research for something.  My best example would be my mom, who always reminds me to make sure that I look for more than one report for a piece of news to see what things might've been omitted in one as opposed to another. 3.  I tried the public writing assignment but kept getting distracted with how hot it was outside and just ended up writing a little rant on climate change.  So I suppose that I could use that in public writing, since the environment is a pretty hot (ha) topic right now. 4.  I believe that there's multiple public spheres.  Talking to my f...
