The purpose of my first writing
assignment will be to provide my audience, high school students, with what
types of writing are used in the field of finance as well as the importance of
the writings in my field. The genre for
my first assignment will be an informational report presenting my findings of
the writing in the finance field. The stance in which I will take when writing
my paper will be serious so they understand the importance of writing in the
finance field but not to serious that they don’t retain any information from
the report.

High school assignment evaluation
Braden Blake
Rhetoric 1030
8/26/2015
For this assignment I choose an
essay I wrote in high school for a Tippie college of business scholarship. So the genre was essay but also informational
about myself as well. When writing this
essay a little over a year ago I had a rather simple purpose and that was to
get scholarship to help pay for college.
A deeper purpose of my essay was to impress the scholarship committee
and show them the potential I had to succeed.
I think this section of my essay shows what I want to do with my degree
and shares a little bit about my interests “I plan to pursue a career in a stock/financial related area
in a position where I can use my passion to help others.” The audience for my essay
was the scholarship committee. The
stance of my essay was passionate because I had to sell myself to the committee. One example of how I tried to sell myself as
why a business degree interested me was: “The stock market is a passion of mine and my success
investing money has led me to choose finance as a major.” The media for this piece of writing was print
so I needed to show my creativity through the design and the layout of the
paper because unlike a speech they had to judge their opinions strictly of text.
