This map was strictly focused around the creation of a research writing assignment like the final one we are completing for class. While the first map was much more open ended interpretation of the key terms and how to apply them to our writing this is much more focused map. It’s built strictly around how to use the key terms to create a successful research paper. There’s definitely overlap between the two like it is important to instantly identify the rhetorical situation and once that is established you can build the rest of the piece based on nature of rhetorical situation.
I think my map uses a really nice metaphor of building a car for connecting the key terms for the purpose of a research assignment. Starting with the “design team” is the idea of establishing a question. What purpose is this piece trying to serve and what needs to be researched to come to a conclusion or answer. It’s a good blend of prior knowledge of writing research papers with the current knowledge of key terms like genre and audience we learned in this class.
These maps supply a great visual reference tool for all the key terms and writing processes we are currently learning in class. To be able to connect everything with visual connotation is great for our final piece on the theory of writing. Seeing all these terms blended answering different questions will lead very nicely into creating our very own theory of writing.
