Audience Why is it necessary to consider our
audience? Your audience often determines your argument, language, tone, and structure of your writing/speaking.
Who thinks about audience? Everyone- including you! We think about our audience in every interaction and are subject to it every day.

you say it”
Why it’s important to think about our audience as we write.

College Reading Strategies
Ethics of College Reading: Boredom and Persistence
Going to college means that you will encounter a wide range of academic and professional readings, some of which may be clinical and specialized. You may find at times that the reading you’re assigned is intimidating and hard to follow. You may wonder what the writer is trying to prove.

College Reading StrategiesChallenges:

“Don’t Blame the Eater” Zinkzenko
Reading Strategy #6: Double Entry Notes
QUOTE
1. “And the problem isn’t just
theirs- it’s all of ours”
ANALYSIS1. Z believes that everyone
is responsible for each others’ health. I agree and disagree with this. Society can teach children to eat healthily, but we cannot force adults- right?
