To Dr. Rice, by divine grace resplendent in Ciceronian Charm, Mira, inferior to his great knowledge and devoted learning, expresses obedient honorable service.
My passion for learning transcends into the thrill of teaching students what I have learned. Although my experience is limited to tutoring and Supplemental Instructor sessions at the Undergraduate level, this program would enable me to broaden my knowledge base and prepare me for a wider range of teaching.
Studying International Business introduced me to how culture impacts our relations with one another. Our interactions with different social classes, businesses, and economies are all influenced by differences and similarities in culture. Because of this, we have to adapt how we approach the entities of varying cultures. By studying Technical Communication, not only do I gain more insight into handling different audiences, but I can put the knowledge I already attain into practice.
To be a successful professor, a vast knowledge of the Technical Communication field must be known. This program offers this generalized experience and also presents areas of specialization. As mentioned before, my area of interest is the impact of culture or intercultural writing. Through this reputable program I wish to learn how to write, edit, and design cultural-specific marketing material.

Mira--Most excellent post, thou most logical, astute, and thoughtful student of the highest possible order. Good thinking through of salutation, securing of goodwill, narration, petitio, and conclusion. Each of these rhetorical elements should be added to your rhetorical terms list. We are reading now about copia and lists which situate best practices for each of these sections of an effective letter. Still, each of these sections, I believe, are helpful in composing letters today, don't you think?
ReplyDeleteThis was excellent! I really enjoyed how you hit each point in the genre to include the elements, but also were able to do so in a semi-modern way. Very nice balance and tone!
