Welcome back! After spring break, I'm engaging final reflection writing as a writer. By this blog I will share identity of our discourse community. Before start composing I have to read following three reading: Proverbs for Revising a Novel (Lee Martin), Our Discourse Community Values, What is Literacy? (James Paul Gee) and We Are Many (Pablo Neruda) also watching Karl Iglesias's (script-doctor, author, award-winning instructor and story consultant, specializing in the reader’s emotional response to the written page) interview Writing For Emotional Impact (Karl Iglesias).
After that I have to answer How do these three texts speak to the identity of our discourse community? To answering this question I shall use more than one genres from these such as: Traditional analysis essay, found poem (s), writer's round-table, quote collage, vlog reflection, argumentative essay, etc. Let's start talking...I belonging one special community. This community context is ENG100. "Discourse community always depends on context." Literacy a special accepted association among ways of using language of thinking (identity kit), and of acting that can be used to identify oneself as a member of a socially meaningful group or social network. There are a number of important points that one can make about discourses.
The crucial question is: how does one by the discourses that s/he controls? Before answering the question, it is necessary to make an important distinction between ‘acquisition’ and ‘learning’. Acquisition is a processes of acquiring something subconsciously by exposure to models and a process of trial and error, without a process of formal teaching. This is how most people come to control first language. Learning is a process that involves conscious knowledge gain through teaching, though not necessary from someone officially designated a teacher. Its inherently involves attaining, along with the matter being taught, some degree of meta-knowledge about the matter. "We are better at what we acquire, we consciously know more about what we have learned." Example of primary use of language and secondary use of language: Telling your mother you love her is a primary use of language; telling your teacher you don't have homework is a secondary use of language. Dominant discourses lead social goods in a society. Rhetorical Situation: The writing situation that the writer responds to. Three elements: Audience, Exigence and Constraints. If your mind is empty, it is always ready for anything; it is open to everything. In the beginner’s mind there are many possibilities, in the expert’s mind there are few. —Shunryu Suzuki-Roshi Before enlightenment, I chopped wood and carried water. After enlightenment, I chopped wood and carried water. —Zen Proverb While I am writing, I am far away; and when I come back, I have already left. —Pablo Neruda
