Syntheses

about how there is double sides, he shows it through the factory farm and how
we preserve it as all good and cheery with all the animals happy when in
reality there shoved in small spaces and always sick and hurt. In my paper I’m
going the same wrought as Gleen, for the most part, about showing the other
side of things and helping people see how things really are. With EMT’S you
never notice them there and we don’t think about them. When someone say
something about EMT’S we just think about people who jump out of the back of a
medic truck and hurry get the person in it and take them to the hospital. But
there is so much more then that they do and that’s what I’m planning to do is
shed some light on their community.
Lisa,
ReplyDeleteI am very excited about your project as EMT's, especially the EMT community is something that I know very little about. Remember that by doing this project you will be shedding light on the EMT community and therefore it might not be necessary to overstate that they are underrepresented. Let your work and the data that you gather speak for itself as much as possible, though it will be helpful to position yourself in the community (disclose that you have family members who are involved etc.) Also, when are doing or after you complete your research go back to Swales's "six characteristics..." and see how you might apply these characteristics to the EMT community. You should eventually only be looking at a couple of these characteristics, as long as what Gee and Wardle bring to light. Keep in mind that based on the EMT community you will need to make a more general, original argument about discourse communities. Best of luck as you continue.
