Since it is generalized so that everyone can understand it, it is non academic. This source is  https://www.jstor.org/stable/pdf/1249338.pdf?refreqid=excelsior%3Ad4ae5cf2228eab84e8346e4d0d5f5b1c

This assignment is asking to have us interview a person of our choice in the same career field as us and learn the different ways that they use writing in their everyday job. The assignment want us to demonstrate three ways that the person writes out everyday things, such as a website or a blog as well as three ways they write academic letters, for example to corporate offices and potential staff members. This assignment is useful for us so that we know what genre of writing to use for every occasion in the future when we are working in our intended or interested field of study. Questions: ~ What does it mean when the directions say “ You need 6 sources, three academic and three non academic”. ? How is that a source, do we have to cite it which makes it a source? ~ What are different genres of writing that we should look for? ~ What does APA citation style mean?

This is my first blog!!!! The meaning of rhetoric is persuasive ways of communication to have an impact on the persons audience.
