Introduce Proposal/Research/White Paper Project #2 - Audeience Analysis

Q. Describe your intended audience—who are these readers? (hint: who is giving you permission)

A. My intended audience for my proposal is Prof. Santoy. Therefore, I should complete my proposal as if I was seeking permission form my boss to pursue a specific course of action or in this case, approval of my white paper topic.

Q. Describe your intended audience in terms of the organization they work for and their position or title.

A. Prof. Santoy is affiliated with Texas State Technical College - Harlingen as the English Department director and a teacher.

Q. Describe your intended audience in terms of their occupation, profession, or field

A. Because Prof. Santoy is employed in the English writing field she will be particularly focusing on the structure and development of my proposal.

Q. Describe your intended audience in terms of their needs for or interest in the information you plan to include in this writing project.

A. Prof. Santoy has requested this proposal and therefore will be interested in seeing my approach. I have chosen to propose the use of the tech tool Blellow because it will help students in the Digital Media Design Technology program at TSTC.

Q. Describe how your intended audience will use the information you include in this writing project.

A. Prof. Santoy will use this proposal to decide if this will be an appropriate topic for me to write my first white paper assignment on.

Q. Describe the technical background of your intended audience–what do they know and not know about your topic? What are their technical limitations in relation to this writing project?

A. Prof. Santoy is an experienced blog and twitter user who might be very interested in the new micro-blogging tool Blellow. As an avid user she will be able to recognize the benefits of this tool and interpret the impact it could have on college students.

  2. Additionally, focusing on how your audience will evaluate your document is a good way to start producing a plan and goals for completing the document
