Outcome 11

Here you will do a reflection on the Variation across Contexts outcome, which states:

 "Students will be able to identify, analyze, and reflect on variation in rhetorical and
linguistic patterns, including their own, from a range of contexts (e.g cultural, digital,
workplace, and/or academic)".

Questions:

1. When you were participating in or creating this artifact, did that require you to code-switch?
Why or why not?
2. What rhetorical or linguistic patterns shift when code-switching in this particular genre or
rhetorical situation?
3. What rhetorical and/or linguistic patterns were used or present within this artifact?

When producing Group work 3, I was not required to code switch as I believe in my group mates’ ability
to communicate with one another without problems. The rhetorical or linguistic patterns shift when
code-switching in this situation would be not being comfortable with the other people you would have
to work with. Without knowing them you might not know their ways of speaking and understanding of
your language or what might be being talked about. Some linguistic patterns that we used in this certain
assignment was the usage of checkmarks in order to check our table of different rhetorical moves being
used in certain texts.
