3 Introduction. I plan to use three genres for the community: rhetorical, narrative, and music. The rhetorical genre can be found at https://rb.gy/nlgiig. The narrative genre can be found at https://rb.gy/fa6wkv. The music genre can be found at https://rb.gy/thinib. Similarities and differences between the genres. The main similarity between the genres is that they were used to simplify the message and persuade the audience to listen, thus allowing him to follow the message conveyed in the genre. The genres used superficial things to simplify the message making it convenient to the audience. The difference between genres is that some genres, such as rhetorical and music genres, were more persuasive to the audience than narrative, which the community members considered storytelling. (Todorov, 2019) How the community reacts, receive and respond to proposed genres? The genres target all community members by suggesting what they can do to improve it. The community reacts to the proposed genres differently depending on their persuasiveness, which makes them adhere more and focus on the most persuasive genres. After listening to the information to the genre, they can implement the strategies stated thus allowing them to follow the norms of the community thus developing it. With different understanding capabilities in the community, different people have different understanding capabilities, making them implement different strategies based on their understanding. Conventions addressed by the genre addresses The rhetorical genre addresses two conventions: persuasiveness and expository, to portray the context’s theme, thus persuading the audience to understand. The narration genre addresses three conventions, setting, theme and character, to allow the audience to relate to the scenario’s occurrence. The music genre holds convention by using lyrics and images, allowing the audience to imagine a scenario, thus improving their understanding of the activities taking place in the community. Based on the genres I have chosen, there is no genre that seeks to push back genre conventions. (Childs, 2019) Using analysis to narrow down the project The three main genres to be used in the project include rhetorical, music and narrative. The analysis helped me to shape and create genres by understanding communication strategies required in the community to understand various concepts, thus allowing me to develop the most favorable genres. This was an essential step for the project plan. Reference Childs, G. W. (2019). Rhetorical genre theory and whiteness.

4 What community are you working with? I will work with the Sorority community of Alabama State University in this project. The sorority community communicates by writing newspapers, publishing information on websites, distributing posters and flyers, and giving speeches and presentations to encourage all the community members. (Yates, 2020) What genres do you think about this community? The sorority community uses multiple genres, which include; The use of rhetorical genre in writing newspapers allows writers to choose and express different contexts most convincingly, making it appealing to the audience Use narrative genres to entertain others and engage with them during speeches and presentations, allowing them to create an imaginative experience on the topics. Use pop and R&B music genres to pass on the information essential to educating other community members. Use memes to create and distribute memes to describe particular situations and their outcomes, allowing community members to be kept of their activities. Use motivational posts to encourage one another to keep improving, thus contributing positively to the institution. Use email to pass crucial information from one community member to another, allowing them to set the policies they will use to develop the community. Use brochures to create awareness of the activities taking place and the schedule of the activities, keeping everyone informed. From the list above, which genres do you think are the best to write in? The most effective genres can be emailed to pass information across all the community members, publishing a newsletter, creating helpful resources such as brochures and written speeches and setting a forum where people can ask questions and answers. The community perfectly fits these genres as they aim to pass information to the community and develop it. Other genres that can be used in the community include rhetorical and narrative journals to attract the audience. Provide a genre of your community. One of the standard genres used in the community is the rhetorical genre. This genre is essential in our community as it allows presenters and publishers to choose and filter contexts appropriately, making it relevant to the audience. Other communities hardly use this genre to filter the information, and it hardly becomes appealing to be followed by the audience, making them lose community participants in various projects. (Casal et al., 2020) Do you have any questions about the genres you will create? Yes, I have questions about the genre I will create. Since our genre involves filtering information to attract the audience, what will happen if the author decides to deceive about the community project’s progress to impress the community members to prevent them from living with other parties? What will be done to prevent such scenarios from being experienced? Why these genres? Currently, I am learning narrative, humour and also fiction. I am suggesting these genres as they can allow participation by all members of the project as they can subject their questions to the author whenever they do not understand. The narrative will be an essential genre as the author will be able to emphasize particular contexts, making it appealing to the audience and making the audience memorize the information. The fiction genre will allow the author to develop a story project, capturing the audience’s attention and allowing them to remember it for a long. Humour will be essential to amuse the audience, allowing them to be active during presentations. References to go along with project 3 Yates, R. (2020).
