WR 39C: ARGUMENT & RESEARCH – Women’s Empowerment and Economic Development
$37.50The Historical Conversations Project
Two major projects comprise the 39C curriculum: The Historical Conversations Project (HCP) and The Advocacy Project (AP). This first one, the HCP, asks you to do four things: (1) present and analyze a significant political/social/cultural problem; (2) frame this problem with motives or warrants, which are current examples, incidents, or arguments that convince your audience that the problem you’re addressing and the questions you’re asking are alive and relevant right now; (3) summarize and critically evaluate various conversations and debates made by credible scholars and organizations about your topic; and (4) decipher the historical contexts of the problem at hand by locating at least 2 pieces of evidence, at least one from the past and one from the present, that tie the problem as we see it today to its past.
Over the next four weeks you will work on this project, which will be submitted for a grade at the end of week four. One of the main purposes of this first assignment is to expose you and your peers to various topics, arguments, histories, and background knowledge that will enable you engage with each other rigorously and productively over the course of the quarter. Another purpose is to begin the process of teaching you how to locate, evaluate, select, arrange, and integrate sources into a multi-modal composition. As a genre of communication—and in the case of this assignment, one that frames a problem, delivers arguments, uses evidence, and speaks to a broad audience—a multi-modal composition can be a synthesis of various rhetorical positions—visual and written for example—that work together to deepen argumentative positions and claims. Your composition’s multi-modality will come from your use of these two modes together.
You may be asking yourself (and you should ask your teacher), “What is a composition and what does it mean if it’s multi-modal?” Musicians, artists, and architects sometimes think of their creations as compositions so they can understand and shape various elements within them and clarify how such elements relate to each other as a coherent whole. In your case, you will locate at least two pieces of evidence, one from the present that helps you define the problem you are exploring and one from the past that deciphers this problem’s historical context. And then you will use credible sources to describe for your readers how these distinct pieces of evidence work together to explain the viability of the contemporary problem.
You will need to ask a number of questions in order to understand how your key pieces of evidence speak to each to each other: How does the “artifact” from the past illustrate the evolution of the problem? What arguments do scholars make about the problem’s past and its present? What are scholars and credible people and organizations debating about the problem and its past? As you explain how and why certain historical changes tie you central pieces of evidence together, you will have to think creatively to arrange your arguments and your evidence, both your key pieces of evidence and scholarly sources, to persuade your audience that the historical foundation you have located is meaningful to our understanding of the problem in the present. Such creative, organizational thinking in music, for example, results in beautiful transitions between parts of a song and makes for a unique song; imagine one of your favorites and think about how its parts are arranged and how the arrangement of the parts makes the song complete.
Additional Guidance
What is a “Key Piece of Evidence” for the HCP?
-Key Evidence (Present): It can be a table of data, an image or a series of images or an incident. It is something that clearly articulates the cultural, political, and social problem that is the focus of your project.
-How do you locate your evidence?
Any social, cultural, or political problem that demands the attention of scholars, intellectuals, thinktanks and advocacy organizations will be defined by and grounded in evidence, and these pieces of evidence are what you are trying to find. What sorts of evidence do your scholarly and credible resources use to substantiate their arguments?
-Key Evidence (Past): Like your evidence from the present, your historical artifact(s) can be a compilation of statistics in a table or a graph, an image, an incident, ideas and arguments from primary sources, stories, and various art forms. You can use credible sources to locate your historical “artifacts,” and in selecting them think and write about how the historical evidence speaks to your central problem in the present. Try to describe how your historical pieces reside in the past, summarize how they speak to your contemporary evidence, and explain how the historical dialogue between these two pieces or bodies of evidence connects the present with the past. The historical space between them, which documents historical changes, will enable you to articulate clearly the importance of your central problem in the present.
Reflective Prompts
-What specific aspects of your historical evidence make it historical? Is it far enough back in time to be considered historical? Does it represent significant and meaningful historical changes?
-What are my credible sources saying about my historical evidence?
-How is my historical evidence different from my contemporary evidence? Why are they different? Are they too different to speak to each other to capture historical changes?
-What arguments am I using from my scholarly sources and contemporary research to explain the historical relationship between my two bodies/pieces of evidence?
-What significant historical changes explain the relationship between my sources? What credible sources am I using to support such explanations and summaries of historical change?

Discourse Community Issues
$37.50Introduction
Changes in professions or fields, or changes in broader cultures in which professions exist can affect a professional discourse community – and change how professionals do or should communicate. How professionals in a given discourse community handle communication issues – conflicts, misunderstandings, or lack of communication options, for example – within a discourse community can shed light on how that discourse community communicates, and what it values, as well as how a profession or field is situated in wider cultural and global contexts. For this paper, you will research and analyze a current communication issue in your future profession or field. You will then argue for the issue’s importance to the profession (or some major element of it), presenting information about the issue and its context to an audience unfamiliar with your profession so that the audience can understand more about your profession or field.Task and Content
Write an essay that makes a persuasive argument identifying an important communication issue in your professional field and why it is important to the profession (or some major element of it).- First, you will need to identify and describe the shared goals (“common public goals” per Swales) and underlying values of your professional discourse community and how they are articulated.
- Then, through your research on the problem, you will discover that the shared goals and values of discourse communities are sometimes articulated directly and sometimes tacitly. This project will help you uncover these goals and values through careful analysis of a communication issue in your professional field.
- Finally, you must present information about the issue and its context so that an audience unfamiliar with your profession can understand enough about your profession or field to see why this is an important issue.
Learning Objectives (you should be able to…)
- conduct field-specific research to identify relevant sources about communication issues and practices
- conduct careful rhetorical analysis of webtexts (Webtexts are texts in electronic media written by professionals for professionals in your professional discourse community (i.e, blogs, web sites, etc).
- analyze and develop insight about your field’s communication dynamics
- apply the concept of ‘discourse community’ (Swales) to your professional community
- argue persuasively about the shared goals and underlying values of your professional community (what, how, where, why)
- use appropriate terms of rhetorical analysis
- produce persuasive analysis of a communication issue in your profession
- frame your analysis for an unfamiliar audience
This assignment requires the following:
- Find three professional community webtexts on a communication issue in your profession. Webtexts are texts in electronic media written by professionals for professionals in your professional discourse community (i.e, blogs, web sites, etc).
- Find three texts about your profession which either discusses your exact communication issue or a similar problem in your profession through Gutman Library. (i.e: secondary sources)
- Analyze the texts to determine how they define the discourse community, considering the following questions: How does each text contribute to a definition of the discourse community per Swales’ 6 categories — shared goals, mechanisms of intercommunication, use of participatory mechanisms, use of specific genres, specific lexis, threshold level of members? How does the writer’s approach to audience, purpose, context, and genre help to communicate the message? What do audience, purpose, context, and genre say or suggest about the discourse community’s shared goals and values?
- Identify and fully describe the communication issue as it relates to your profession or field.
- Explain why this issue is important for your field or profession (how it affects your field or profession). This will inform your thesis and so should be a major theme of the paper.
- Analyze why this is an issue right now: What is unresolved? What is left to be decided? What is unknown? What has changed, if anything? Is this an issue that is limited to the profession or field, do you think, or is it part of a larger cultural issue?
- A discussion & analysis who is involved (who is directly and indirectly affected by this issue), and whose concerns are more important or relevant (if any) and why.
- Create an example of a dilemma in which a professional in your field might find themselves regarding this issue, and at least two possible ways in which this individual might act to resolve the dilemma.
Purpose and Audience
The purpose of your essay is to convince your audience – your peers in the class including those who are NOT in your major and someone you imagine who might have a stake in the profession – about the importance of your communication issue to your field.
