Discourse Communities Outline

Remember, you will need two outlines- one for each mini-paper.

Outlines should look similar to this. You would not put a question, but the community at the top of each of your outlines. You would also want to state your shared topic before each of them too.

    The Covid Vaccination community . People around the world found themselves in tough spot: deciding whether or not to get the Covid vaccine. Many people got the vaccine believing that the positive of getting the vaccine outweighs the negative. But some thought the vaccine wasn’t safe and opted not to get the vaccine.

    my communities are the Genshin community and how many in this community is pay to win and very few is free to pay. some times free to pay give in to the pressure to pull and pull on characters and so more. so, they spend money on the game and become paid to win. most of the pay to win size of the community stem from this.

    The discourse community I would like to talk write about is the independent community. This community Is the community that does not follow the flock which makes them more intelligent and interesting. People who does not care about global events such as Elections and World Cub. They don’t have interests in such a thing not because they don’t have opinion, but they view things differently.

    When I was 8 years old, my dad signed up my brother and me for wrestling training in Uzbekistan. Wrestling is tough, needing hard work and discipline. At first, I got upset because my dad told my coach to push me hard. But after a year with my coach’s help, I got much better. I improved at things I used to struggle with, like tricky moves and exercises. In just a year, I started entering wrestling tournaments, and I did really well in my first one. I became a champion in my first tournament, thanks to my coach, who was an Olympian four times. This taught me how important it is to have a coach or mentor to succeed.
