Audience Analysis Memo And Osteoarthritis
After reviewing the Audience Analysis Memo that I wrote a few weeks ago, it dawned on me how much I have actually learned in this class. It is surprising since it has been a considerably short amount of time. So, in reviewing my original memo, I saw many opportunities for improvement.
In my Audience Analysis Memo, I contrasted two websites about Osteoarthritis. One of the first things I changed was the organization. I realized that the original was too scattered and it was easy for the reader to get confused. I added simple, bolded, larger, and informative subtitles which significantly reduced the strain on the eyes.
My subject was not complete, so I answered some questions I looked over the first time. For example, I included that the first
website did not use tables, graphs, or figures, and that the second uses x-rays, pictures, and figures so the reader can correctly and easily educate their newly diagnosed patient.
My paragraphs and sentences were long so I shortened then up and used more transitional phrases to help them flow smoothly. I found and corrected several grammar errors that I did not notice were there before.
Neither numbering, bulleting, or illustrations are appropriate in this specific paper. I did not have to change my references, but I did add page numbers. The subtitles and page numbers alone are significant in that they allow the reader to know what to expect. Before I start reading articles, or any material for that matter, I also like scanning the paper first to look for these things.
To conclude, as I mentioned before, I found many ways to improve my original memo. I noticed the difference when I read the original and the revised version back-to-back. The latter was easier for me to comprehend and I did not get lost in the wording.
