Please read the instructions. I will add an essay which you need to expand and annotate the text of the speech with notes, videos and links. Read the below instructions for more clearence.
Purpose :To
enter a scholarly conversation about rhetoric by highlighting the most salient
rhetorical features of the text and getting the audience to explore them with
you.
In this Digital annotation option, you will
annotate the actual text of the speech with notes, videos, links and discussion
to other work, and your rhetorical analysis. These annotations should walk a
reader through the rhetorical features of the text in a way that supports an
overall rhetorical exploration of the text. Do not draw the readers’ attention
to every rhetorical feature of the text, but only those features that you deem
most salient to helping them understand your reading of the text and helping
them explore the possibilities of rhetorical criticism with you. You should
develop your analysis beyond the Aristotelian methods, though they can be
included, and beyond the paper you wrote on the text.
With the digital annotation,
you are not merely putting your paper in another format, but allowing that
format to push your analysis further than it went in the paper. Not having to
worry about structure, quoting, paraphrasing, etc., can help you focus on the
analysis of the text itself. You should add different kinds of media besides
text. So, include annotations that have pictures, videos, and hyperlinks.
Instead of citing your material and secondary criticism in a traditional Works
Cited page with parenthetical in-text citations, your annotations should
hyperlink to those sources (or the homepage of the journal being cited).
Include as much detail about the source you are citing as you cite it. Here is
an example:
Rhetorical
critic Karlyn Kohrs Campbell has identified a feminine style as a specific kind
of rhetorical strategy, often employed by women, that focuses on collaboration
with the audience. In her article “The Discursive Performance of Femininity:
Hating Hillary,” published in the journal Rhetoric and Public Affairs, she
applies Judith Butler’s theory of the performance of femininity to show how
what she deems “Hillary hate” is a specific response to Clinton’s lack of
feminine style in her speeches.
(Note that the reader will
have enough to go on to find the article if they are not on campus where the
link will bring them directly to the article; I have provided the author of the
article, the name of the article, and the name of the journal).
Here are some platforms you
might consider to complete your digital annotation:
· Hypothes.is is a simple browser extension that allows
for annotation. (http://hypothes.is/)
· Genius.com is another option that allows multimedia
annotations. (http://genius.com/). You may need an account for this one.
· Digital Research Tools site has a list of digital
annotation tools (http://dirtdirectory.org/tadirah/annotating).
· You can repurpose some commonly used tools in a
make-your-own-platform method. This blog post covers some options: https://fusionfinds.wordpress.com/2013/12/10/digital-annotation-tools-for-close-reading/ .
