1 WEEK 3WRITING NOTEBOOK A UDIENCE A NALYSIS A CTIVITY Each week, you will have an opportunity to practice different aspects of the writing process in a writing notebook. It consists of a template you will fill out and submit in Canvas. In addition to introducing and practicing targeted components of the writing process, these notebooks are meant to help you to determine your own strengths and to identify opportunities for growth. This week, the writing notebook focuses on how to set expectations and analyze your audience to communicate most effectively to them. STEP ONE: Considering Your Audience Explore the information on the Considering Audience webpage and consider how your writing might change depending on the audience. 1. Which audience would be most difficult for you to write for? How would you describe the audience you are most likely to write for academically? Professionally? The audience that would be most difficult for me to write for I think would be the experts who know what exactly to look for and critique. If I had to pick an audience to write for academically it would be a fellow student. I feel like I would relate to them more and be more comfortable doing so. When writing professionally I would choose to write for someone like my boss. I decided this because it is someone that I do not feel pressured by but also someone I know that could critique me well. STEP TWO: Changing Audiences Explore the information on the Audience Analysis downloadable worksheet and consider your Week 2 written assignment. 1. Who was your audience? My audience would be the ones dealing with addiction and abuse trauma. 2. How did you want your audience to react? I want my audience to be able to relate and feel comfortable coming to me and letting me help them in any way that I can. ENG121 Week 3Writing Notebook
2 STEP THREE: Audience Analysis in Practice Now, you can combine the work you have done so far to create a game plan for audience analysis. Activity 1 : Consider the step-by-step process for audience analysis that is explained on the Audience Analysis worksheet. 1. Describe a situation in written communication where you may be called upon to deliver information. This may be a situation you have encountered or one you expect to encounter professionally. A situation that I may be called upon to deliver information that it would be important for me to have written communication would be possibly in the future of my career. Written communication would be very important to communicate effectively in any documentation or notes of who I am trying to help or have a case with or for. It would be important for me to correctly write goals, plans, names, issues at hand or anything else of detail in the situation at hand. 2. Explain how you would communicate this information to different audiences. Note: You do not have to write any communication in full, but please use detail to show how your communication would vary depending on the audience. I would communicate this information differently based upon who I was talking too or communicating with at the time. Some things are personal information which makes it more sensitive information that may not need to be shared with everyone around or certain areas or departments. There is time sensitive information and information that would be for my eyes only. Depending on the audience would determine what would be shared. STEP FOUR:Review and Reflect Review your work in this Writing Notebook. What challenges did you encounter? Which aspects of audience analysis were new to you, or which aspects might you already have been familiar with? In no more than 150 words, please reflect on your work in this activity. In this assignment I would say that the challenges that I faced was really having to think of the different types of audiences that there can and could be in any situation.
