Blog #11: BBG Ch. 10

For this blog post, I will be writing about assembling a multi genre project. A multi genre projection is defined by the BBG as a collection of three of more genre compositions, built around a single topic. There are many ways to build these genre compositions, which is perfect for our project 3 assignment. The BBG says that the multi genre projects should include some of these genres and media options: informative (timelines or photos), persuasive (presentations or statements), and narrative (stories or interviews). It is crucial that we make clear arguments, address the question, have strong sources for the audience intended. There are countless ways to form a multi genre project; keep an open mind and think outside of the box. Choosing a form of presentation that would keep your audience engaged and connected is a huge advantage. It is also important to use rhetorical appeals and emphasize ethos, logos, and pathos. I found it helpful that on page 506 of the BBG they provide a checklist to go through while forming a multi genre project which will be useful to use for project 3.
