Creative Writing Exercise: Crafting a Text for a Specific Audience
Abstract
The goal of this sequence of writing exercises is to teach students to be aware of the intended audience of their texts. It also helps them pay attention to the genre that their text belongs to, the goal(s) that it should accomplish, and the register and rhetorical strategies that they should adopt to accomplish such a goal. Students assume the identity, position, and voice of the characters of the texts they read and of the films they watched.
