Research
Paper Design Plan</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%;">
<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>Throughout
the semester I have kept my theme for the most part on nutrition.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I plan on continuing the same theme for
my research paper.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Nutrition is a
very broad topic and I am still unsure of what to focus on.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I hope that by writing this design plan
I will be able to narrow my topic down into a more specific focus.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My past assignments have been centered
on juicing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I have enjoyed writing
about juicing in the past, however I think that I would like to write my paper
on a different topic within the theme of nutrition.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Even though I will not be writing my paper on juicing, I do
like the idea of plant-based diets.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>When I say ‘diet’ I am referring to the food we consume on a regular
basis, not a food plan to loose weight.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>My paper will likely have something to do with plant-based diets and
will argue the benefits of that kind of a diet.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%;">
<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>My
purpose for this paper will be to inform my audience that the traditional
American diet is not an optimal diet and has very many negative
consequences.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I will discuss the
drawbacks of the traditional diet to yourself as well as the environment.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I would like my paper to be informative
for the audience and shed light on a healthier diet based on plant-based foods.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%;">
<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Ethos</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I want my paper to come across as well researched.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I want my sources to be credible and
informative so that I am presenting the most accurate information.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I do not want to have a condemning tone
when I write about the faults of the traditional American diet.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I want to have a tone that invites the
audience to continue reading and be excited about finding ways to improve their
diets.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%;">
<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Pathos</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I want my audience to agree with my paper.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I would like to keep them interested
all throughout the whole paper, and excited about the new information presented
to them.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I want them to think
about their every day diets and consider my points on how to improve their
diets.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I do not want my audience
to feel like they are being told that they are doing something wrong.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Instead, I want to introduce them to a
new way of thinking about how they eat.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Changing eating habits is not an easy process unless you have strong
reasons to change.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I would like my
paper to present those strong reasons in order to motivate my audience to eat
healthier.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%;">
<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Logos</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My argument will be based on logical facts.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I believe that my topic is a
well-documented field that will provide multiple factual arguments.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My task is to present the facts and
comment on those facts in an order that makes a clear and logical argument that
is easy for my audience to comprehend.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%;">
<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>Choice
of Medium: My medium will be a paper.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>My argument is going to have a lot of information.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>A paper is the best form of Medium for
my purpose because it is the best medium for presenting a lot of information.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%;">
<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>Arrangement:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I will present the problems with the
traditional American diet first.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>In my intro I will present shocking facts about the traditional diet
that capture the audience’s attention without upsetting them.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I will then present my argument on
better food options and how we can improve our diets.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%;">
<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>I
believe that my audience will agree with my argument because it will be based
on facts that are well studied and have proven benefits.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There are many people who believe that
eating meat is a part of our diets as humans.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They believe that since it is something we have been eating
for hundreds of years it is good for us.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My purpose is to counter that argument and provide
research to back up my argument.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%;">
<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>Nutrition
is a huge topic.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I would say I
know more about nutrition than the average person, however I am in no way an
expert in nutrition.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Nutrition is
always changing, new foods are discovered, and new research continues to
surface.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I have scratched the
surface on nutrition through light reading and documentaries based on
research.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I hope that through this
research paper I will learn a lot more about my topic and become more
knowledgeable in the overall field of nutrition.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I will research my topic through the required source
contexts.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My research will be
composed mainly on books.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>One book
that I plan to use as a source will be “The China Study,” a book written based
on 20 years of research on plant-based diets.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I have not read this book yet, however I have heard from
multiple sources that it is a very comprehensive study.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I may also use a source related to Joe
Cross that I analyzed during my rhetorical analysis.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I will use his website, “rebootwithjoe.com” or his
documentary, “Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead.”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I will have a better idea of sources to use when I narrow my
topic down into a more focused topic.</div>

<b>Photo
Essay Design Plan</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Purpose</b>: I want my photo essay to illustrate that healthy food does
not have to taste bad.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I want to
show pictures of healthy food that looks like it tastes good.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The purpose of my essay is to combat
the common belief that all healthy food tastes bad.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I want the focus of my essay to be on fruits and
vegetables.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I want to also briefly
touch on the fact that what a lot of people think may be healthy food is not as
healthy as they think.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I want to
create a spark for my audience to get them interested in eating healthier.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Medium & Production</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>My medium will be photos that I will take myself.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I do not have a lot of experience on
taking good photos, so I am a little concerned on how it will turn out.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>For my photos I will take pictures of
healthy food that looks like it tastes good.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I want to take pictures of food that has rich color,
especially greens.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The color used
in the pictures will send a message that the food is full of life, health, and
vitality.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Ethos</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I want my
pictures to have an inviting tone.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>I do not want my essay to look down on the way the average American
eats.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I just want it to convey an
emotion that inspires, and shows how easy it can be to have a healthy diet.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Pathos</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I want my
audience to agree with my essay.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I
do not want it to be too serious so that it does not shut the audience
out.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I know my audience would
rather see interesting photos than pictures of nutritional facts.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Logos</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My argument is
based on appeal.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I have to take
pictures that make the food look really good.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I will include the ingredients of the food in captions below
the photos.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I may also take a
photo of unhealthy food to show the comparison and the relation to how the food
looks and how it makes us feel.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Arrangement</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>While
preparing the arrangement for my essay it is important to consider the
requirements set in place by the professor.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The essay has to be 8 to 10 slides.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My essay will probably be 8 or 9 slides
composed of two photos per slide.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>I will use about 16-20 photos in my essay.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is important to take a lot of good pictures so that I
have many options to choose from.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>The photos on some slides will be side by side, and in opposite corners
on other slides.</div>

I believe that I accomplished the overall goal that I set in my design plan. I wanted to inspire others to have a healthy diet, by showing pictures that looked appealing. In my design plan I had originally planned on showing different types of healthy foods, however once I started on the project I thought that it would be better if I focused on the benefits of juicing. I chose to put the captions at the top because of the template that I picked. I thought that the template was a good color to express health and vitality and would serve as a great background for my photos. My overall purpose stayed the same, I just changed my means in order to more effectively accomplish my purpose.</div>

I changed topics once again when it was time to start my photo essay. I chose to cover healthy food for my essay, and wanted to show my audience that all healthy food does not have to taste bad. The purpose of my essay is to show that there are a lot of healthy food choices that taste good.<br />
<br />
Taking the pictures requires a lot of work, because you have to prepare the food in a way that makes it appealing for the photo. I have not been home for the past week during the day, so all of my meals have been out. I could take photos of the food that I am eating, however it is not the exact message that I want to get across in my essay. As a result, getting a lot of photos to choose from has been a difficult task. I know the pictures that I want to take, however I have not had the opportunity to take all of them yet. I plan to take some more photos today and throughout the weekend. Getting quality pictures is the most difficult part and requires the most amount of time. I believe that once I have a good amount of photos the majority of the essay will be complete and I will just have to put it together. <br />
<br />
I think that this assignment is a good change of pace from your standard writing assignments. Using different contexts keep the class interesting. However, it is sometimes difficult to do new assignments when you have never done any assignment like it.

Blogging is a great tool to communicate and share with a lot of people in a new way.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It gives us a chance to share our
thoughts and experiences with each other so that we can learn from each
other.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I think it is our
responsibility to make these blogs interesting for each other to read,
insightful, and to actively communicate with each other.</div>

A couple of weeks ago my heater stopped working around
5pm.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It was one of many very cold
winter days in the Chicago suburbs. We tried to find someone who could fix it
quickly, however no one was available until the next morning.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The house cooled fast and it got down
to around 52 degrees in the night.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Needless to say I did not sleep well that night.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In this situation many people would get
angry, annoyed, and start to complain.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>I used to be one of those people, however this time I started to think
differently. I thought about how great it was that we had a heater in the first place and how life would be without it.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
Our
generation has been given such amazing gifts from past generation’s
inventions.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We often don’t think
about how great the objects are that we use on a regular basis, and how much
they improve our lives. Items like: cars, phones, lights, computers, internet,
plumbing, pens, beds, and so much more have made our lives much more
convenient, comfortable, and productive.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>It is safe to say that most of us take these amazing gifts for granted
and don’t realize what life would be like without them.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>

<span style="text-indent: 0.5in;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 0px;">
<span style="text-indent: 0.5in;"> Next time something doesn’t work
the way it should, instead of getting upset, I encourage you to think about how
great it is that the thing exists in the first place and be thankful that you
have it.</span><span style="text-indent: 0.5in;"> </span><span style="text-indent: 0.5in;">There are still people all
over the world that do not have access to the most basic of these gifts.</span><span style="text-indent: 0.5in;"> </span></div>
