Earn $15 by Writing an Essay
This is a work from home opportunity worth $15. See below for how to avail of this writing project.
You have read about several different literacy events in your reading assignments. Now you will have the opportunity to select one literacy event and analyze it.
Your assignment for Essay #1 is to choose one literacy event from any one of the reading assignments for Week 1 or Week 2 and analyze it:
1) The written piece that sets off the event. What is it? What does it do? Is it formal or informal? Is it accessible? Restricted to only a few people? What are the general attitudes towards this written piece? What kind of information is in the written piece? A full description of the written piece that sets off the literacy event is crucial.
2) The particular situation of the literacy event. Remember the desktop computer setup guide? For one walk of life, it is merely a sign of adaptation. For another, it is far more than adaptation. So be sure to describe fully the situation presented in your selection from the reading assignments.
3) The person or persons reacting to the written piece. Who is the person? What do they do? How do they react to the event, and why? If more than one person, how do they react as a group? How do they provide information pertinent to having a reaction? Reactions are an integral part of any literacy event.
Don’t forget to conclude appropriately. You probably won’t have to include any outside sources, but if you do, please include them in a works cited or bibliography page.
This paper should be 3 pages in length, double-spaced, MLA format. I don’t require a cover page, but if you want to provide one, that is fine. Please use MS Word, RTF, or PDF formatting for your written work.text Reading CultureContext for Critical Reading and Writing 7 Edition Diana George. Jon Trimbur
dear writer
I have read your Essay #1. It has a very big problem in that it does not
address the prompt. Go back to the prompt (it’s still up on the website)
and read the instructions. The 2nd paragraph clearly indicates that you
were to take some topic from the assignments and write about that topic.
Your essay clearly does not do this.
Your essay will be returned to you via eCollege with the appropriate grade
