The genre I decided to go with is a PSA.I felt like a PSA was best because me being a teen I know I don’t like to read long essays or boring videos so I feel a PSA is short and will get the message through.When doing the PSA I will present a problem and write evidence about the topic.PSA can be written through one point of view or many.The tone is straightforward.The purpose of a PSA is to inform people of a problem and a solution or things that can help to fix it.PSA’s usually should take more then 5-10 minutes to read either.A PSA could be placed as a poster in a school wall or a bus stop or on the bus itself or on the side of a building outside.

Class Meetings & Times: Mondays & Wednesdays, 4-5:40 PM, in Namm 521
Office Hours: Tuesdays and Thursdays, 12 – 1 PM. I’ll be available through Zoom and will send an invitation via email that you should keep all semester. Try to join my meeting at the start of the hour, not at the end—since I may be talking to other students or have another appointment after the hour is up. If those times don’t work with your schedule, we can schedule a different time. This means you’ll have to schedule an appointment in advance via email. I suggest you have multiple times in mind, since your schedule may not mesh with mine!
