 Objectives

 

Since this is a Rhetoric and Writing class, we are more interested in how our inquiry and reflection drives the content we discover and how our emotions and logic affect textual interpretation, analysis, and creation. Thus, we will use each resource towards these ends, paying close attention to the pathways we choose to invent, make, and circulate knowledge.
