Write a 750-1,000-word essay that analyzes the rhetorical situation of a public document. This public document is the Centers for Disease Control’s (CDC) website on Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).
Your analysis should include at least TWO scholarly sources outside of class texts. Complete a close reading of the assigned public document.
Then, write a cohesive essay that:
1. Introduces and summarizes the CDC website on ADHD.
2. Analyzes the rhetorical tools used on the site (here, you will want to incorporate ideas from your preanalysis below). For instance, your essay could analyze the CDC’s use of ethos, pathos, and logos.
3. Evaluates the site’s effectiveness (again, ideas from your preanalysis below will be helpful)
