Now that you have spent the past few months thinking in terms of rhetoric, consider the following: How have you applied the principles of rhetoric to your own life?

Please post your research plan and abstract in ONE post below.

Please post the link to your first draft below. Then take a look at the Peer Review Lineup here and complete your peer reviews using the Diigo "Highlight and Comment" feature.

Please carefully read the Peer Review Guidelines here before getting started.

In the space below, please do your best to direct me and your classmates to your public comment. In many cases, comments you leave on a web site can be directly linked to. If this is not possible, please provide a link to the page and the handle/screenname you are using so your comment is easy to find.
