1B. analyze the ways a text’s purposes, audiences, and contexts influence rhetorical options.

Evidence: Project 1 FD This project was meant to bolster my skills in rhetorical analysis by having me analyze multiple separate articles. It had me looking at the SLR and DOCS when it came to these multiple pieces and analyze them while comparing and contrasting them.
