Module 4 Short Responses – Question 1
1.
Your best friend
2.
People reading a newspaper editorial you've written
3.
Your professor
4.
The audience at a conference where you are presenting
If I were to write to an audience consisting of my best friend it would be informal and not
very detailed whereas I would not need to use any formalities due to our closeness in addition
to not being very detailed oriented because I would assume they would know most of what I
was talking about beforehand. I would expect them to be looking for something they can
relate to and talk about while providing positive supportive feedback If I were to write to an
audience consisting of people reading a newspaper editorial I've written I would remain
somewhat formal while trying to use language to illustrate a solid relationship so as to make
the reader feel important and valid. It would be quite detailed whereas the readers would only
know what I am sharing with them at the time of the article. This audience will most certainly
be on the lookout for facts and a detailed argument. If I were to write to an audience
consisting of my Professor I would use the most formal tone I could while remaining as
detailed as possible and using supporting evidence to support my argument. This audience
will be on the lookout for plagiarism, and correct knowledge, in addition to spelling and
grammar. My professor will be looking for a detailed argument and providing constructive
criticism. If I were to write to an audience consisting of the audience at a conference where I
am presenting I would be semi-formal, providing a laid-back type of presentation. I would
provide facts and I would believe they would be looking for basic facts, possibly even my
side of an argument.
Module 4 Short Responses – Question 2
Consider how your audience might influence the information you include in an
historical analysis essay about the Women's Suffrage Movement.
What audience would be most interested in reading about the women's movement? How
would you tailor your presentation to that audience? What message would be most
appropriate for this audience?
I believe that young women and children would be most interested in reading about the
women's movement. I would tailor my presentation to this audience by using terminology
that this age group and gender-related issues. The message that would be most appropriate for
this audience would be that no matter how young or old, no matter your gender every human
being deserves equal rights.
Module 4 Short Responses – Question 3
Let's say the intended audience for your historical analysis essay about the legal battle
for women's suffrage is a group of civil rights lawyers. How would you explain the legal
background of the Constitution and the Nineteenth Amendment? How would this
approach compare and contrast to an audience of high school students?
If my historical analysis essay was about the legal battle for women's suffrage and the
intended audience is a group of civil rights lawyers I would explain the legal background of
the constitution and the nineteenth amendment in a way that appeals to justice and
discrimination. I would use jargon that lawyers utilize in their practice while remaining
formal in tone. This same approach compared to an audience of high school students would
not understand it as easily and would become bored of the formalities quickly. I would need
to make it less formal and lose the jargon to tailor it better to this audience.
Module 4 Short Responses – Question 4
Was President Kennedy's decision to support the Equal Rights Amendment a necessary
cause for the amendment's passage by Congress?
Although Kennedy did take a number of steps favored by women's rights activists President
Kennedy's decision to support the Equal Rights Amendment was more of a contribution
rather than a necessary deciding factor. Congress was already very much involved.
Module 4 Short Responses – Question 5
Was the social tumult of the 1960s a necessary cause of the women's liberation
movement?
As women's rights activists began to make common causes with civil rights activists the
social tumult of the 1960s was not necessary for the cause of the women's liberation
movement. America is always seemingly dealing with "uncharted territories" no matter what
the time period or knowledge possessed.
Module 4 Short Responses – Question 6
Simone de Beauvoir was the intellectual founder of the women's liberation movement.
Tailor
this thesis statement into a message suitable for an audience of high school history
students.
The knowledgeable Simone de Beauvoir was the original organizer of the women's liberation
movement.
Module 4 Short Responses – Question 7
The women's movement's focus on issues related to sexual freedom, including reproductive
rights, galvanized support among many younger women, but it cost the movement support
among many older and more socially conservative women.
Tailor this message for an
audience consisting of students in a Women's Studies class.
The women's movement focuses on multiple issues. Some of the issues include freedom of
gender and sex, in addition to motivating the support of young women. However, these
factors cost the movement support from older, more socially conservative women.
