5 Topics - I Could Research and Write On
1. Rhetoric and Composition – Why do students rely on pathos – an emotional appeal – with great frequency. How does writing assist in making the argument an emotional one?
2. English Education – In this day of the FCAT and SAT standardized testing, how does “teaching the test” translate into learning today?
3. Cultural Studies – How has text messaging effected dialogue, communication, and the many things we would never say in a face-to-face setting?
4. Discourse Analysis – What hidden motivation lies behind politicians who want their own region of the country addressed in the stimulus package?
5. Buzz words used on political platforms – are they disingenuous? For example: Change we can believe in (Obama); Solutions for America (Hillary Clinton); and Country First (McCain).
