Effective Persuasive Communication

Articulate what constitutes effective persuasive communication in personal, professional and academic contexts Write four paragraphs describing effective persuasive communication in personal, professional, and academic contexts.  In each of the paragraphs, include at least one concrete example of effective writing that you have encountered or written yourself to illustrate your points, and consider issues like audience, speaker, text, purpose, and context. You can also include information on tone, style, formality, voice, correctness, evidence, and word choice you develop your responses to the prompts. Here are some examples of persuasion in various contexts to help you think about examples from your own experience: A post on a social media site about the need for sidewalks in your neighborhood so kids can get to school safely An email to your boss proposing a new safety procedure An academic persuasive essay about your community’s need for a free spay/neuter program In all of these situations, you need to choose the most appropriate audience, method of communication, and evidence to convey your argument and persuade others to agree with you. In the first paragraph, describe an example of effective persuasive communication in personal contexts such as social media posts, emails to friends, or communications to your child’s teachers and explain the considerations you must keep in mind to communicate effectively in these personal communications In the second paragraph, describe an example of effective persuasive communication in professional contexts.  You can consider your own field of study and the expectations for writing effectively in that field and explain how that communication example illustrates the expectations for professional persuasive communication, or you could describe a communication you received in a professional context, such as a letter from a lawyer or business. In the third paragraph, describe an example of effective persuasive communication in an academic context like a discussion board, assignment, or group presentation. In this paragraph, consider how academic persuasive standards differ from personal and professional writing. In the fourth paragraph, discuss how you could use collaboration and teamwork to persuade others and communicate ideas effectively and ethically to others. Respond to the questions in a thorough manner, providing specific examples of concepts, topics, definitions, and other elements asked for in the questions. Your paper should be highly organized, logical, and focused. Your paper must be written in Standard English and demonstrate exceptional content, organization, style, and grammar and mechanics.  Your writing should be well ordered, logical and unified, as well as original and insightful.
