HH225 Public Writing and Rhetoric

3 credit(s)
In this course, students will bring a humanities perspective to the process of communicating with the public on complex social issues (such as public health, technological innovation, or the environment).  Students will study and apply rhetorical theory to projects written for specific audiences and communities.  All the projects in this course will focus on either (1) writing for public audiences or (2) writing to serve the public interest.  Students will explore frameworks of intercultural communication, social justice, and civic engagement to consider the ethical demands of public communication.  The course will also provide students with resources and practice in different modalities, genres, styles, formatting, and grammars appropriate for use with public audiences. Also offered as E225   Prerequisite: E130  or equivalent.
