Module 4 - SLPPersuasive Writing: Getting ControversialPersuasive vs. Directive WritingThis assignment has three parts. The purpose of this assignment is to help you understand the difference between persuasive and directive communication.First, imagine that company board has implemented a Casual Friday rule at your workplace. The policy is appropriate in most departments, but in your department you have two issues. First, unlike most departments, you deal with the public often and unexpectedly; a customer can come by anytime. Second, your staff tends to overdo. They wear sandals, shorts and other inappropriate workplace attire.Part 1: Imagine you have authority to order your staff to do what you want them to do. Write one or two paragraphs (about six sentences) as an e-mail in directive mode.Part 2: Now imagine that you do not have authority over this group. It's a board policy. However, you want to persuade them to dress differently on Casual Fridays. Write another e-mail message, this time in persuasive mode.Do not offer a bribe or reward. ("If you do this, you will get time off.") Motivate your reader by appealing to his or her interests, needs, and desires. Use logic and reasoning.Do not make threats. You can't say, "Failure to comply will result in dismissal." Remember, you don't have the authority to do anything. You are relying totally on your persuasive powers.Think of 2 or more reasons to persuade the other person to do what you want. Consider the other person's perspective. What would motivate him, her, or them to act this way? For example, "When you come to work on time, you will work more efficiently the rest of the day and you'll feel more relaxed."Part 3: Write a paragraph explaining what you learned about the difference between persuasive and directive writing. Minimum 150 words, no maximum.SLP Assignment ExpectationsDemonstrate understanding of persuasive vs directive writing.Following directions (necessary for a grade of "B" or higher).Organize persuasive essay (Part 2) into specific points, one pont per paragraph.Support each point with logic and reasoning.Complete all 3 parts of the assignment (necessary to get A- or A)Use of APA formatting if you use references.

But we want to see your work - not someone else's! You only get credit for work that is 100% yours. In some courses it is appropriate to use quotations. In this course, there is no reason to quote anyone else, except very briefly to support your points.No general statements with "all," "none," "must," "should," "mandatory," and similar terms.Business and workplace topics only. Please do not make reference to religion, national politics or anything that's intensely personal.Submit your assignment for grading by the end of this module.
