Tripp!: Project 2 Outline

Sections! It's time for the sections of project 2! :)

Duk. "Conic Sections 3". 7/12/13 via Wikipedia. GNU Free Documentation.

Introduction

In the introduction I will introduce the topic and address the fact that many students are unfamiliar with how to take apart arguments in entrepreneurship. This will help to make the readers feel comfortable (hearing how others share their struggle) and then hopefully they will be more inclined to read closely and learn from the piece

Thesis

In this article, Julie Hall separates the segments of her text clearly to demonstrate that there are different ways for women to make advances in what is viewed as a 'man's' field, and in each section she appeals to our emotions and logic from a new angle.

Body Paragraphs

Analytical Claims

Julie worked in the field that she is talking about, which is important because it makes her more credible and also means she'll probably have better insight than most people
Her audience is probably to men and women alike, although the advice she gives is specific to women working in startups
Contextually, she is writing at a time when women are struggling to be taking seriously in the tech/engineering/startup industries and this article is explicitly focused on that phenomenon
The message is that women should be heard and taken seriously, and that they should also advocate for themselves.
Julie employs a host of rhetorical strategies, especially appealing to our emotions and her own credibility in order to make her point.

Support For Each Claim

Conclusion

I will conclude by summarizing my analytical claims (similar to what I did in this outline) so that they are fresh in my readers' heads. It might even be as concise as a list. And then I will end the piece in a way that makes it clear to them that the deconstruction of any public speech act, regardless of what I just told them, is their own process and they can do with it what they will.

Tripp!
