Post 6: Boyd's use of rhetorical strategies
Janet Boyd intends for her audience to complete a few exercise contributing to crime scenes as an investigator in order to demonstrate the importance of jargon. One of the rhetorical strategies I noticed in her essay is when she basically gives a prompt and then gives the readers a few questions to guide them through the exercise to provoke a response from reader to persuade them during the communication. Janet mentioned in her essay that every piece of writing needs a starting point an a perspective. She then began to give examples based on a few students reports that they all pretty much spoke in first person the give their point of view. Janet in my opinion was really persuasive and how her essay was set up really helped me to think more on how I lay out my writing.
I also like the way Boyd set up her essay in asking a few questions to really grasp our attention.
