There were multiple steps I took
when I was completing this assignment, but it is generally what I do for
every paper I write. First, I brainstormed on what exactly I would like
to focus on while writing the rhetorical analysis essay. Then, I looked
to the outline we were provided and started to fill it in step by step.
Once that was finished, I started to connect the different parts of the
outline into an essay format. This usually helps me get started, and
give me a decent amount of writing to build off of. The result of this
process was what I called my rough draft. Then for the final draft I
just added some extra grammatical corrections, and made it flow much
smoother.
One of the main things I learned about this topic was some of the effects of poverty, and more importantly, who it effects. I also saw how it is portrayed through different media outlets, and the fact that there is a specific image of poverty that is shown, that might not represent all of the people that are currently living in poverty. While I was writing my essay I also began to realize that rhetorical analysis is, to me, a more advanced form of critiquing someones writing or piece of media in a very detailed way. I think this essay also solidified the fact that I have a real problem with procrastination. However, it motivates me to work harder, and do it faster. Usually when I am working under a time crunch it serves as motivation, but I end up missing things that I could have corrected if I had given myself more time. I think in order to quit procrastinating so much I need to find other motivating factors in order to encourage myself to finish my projects early rather than right before they are due. I am happy with the final product. While I may have needed to use a different style of sources, I think the paper itself turned out pretty strong.
