A multimodal writing and analysis-intensive course focusing organizational analysis and public facing rhetoric of businesses with a special interest in nonprofits as a way to introduce students to a career in the nonprofit world. Using real nonprofits or other organizations as an example, students will apply theories of organizational rhetoric, visual rhetoric, genre, and more to analyze the ways in which a business internally communicates and externally presents itself in its public facing texts and artifacts particularly with an eye toward diversity, equity and inclusion and assumed power structures. For the first half of the class, students will choose a business or nonprofit organization to formally research, analyze and create content for. Genres include an organizational rhetorical analysis report, a writing profile, a researched spotlight brief and a video message. Students will then present their work in a 10 to 15-minute formal presentation, peer reviewed by the class. The second half of the semester, the class will partner with one or more businesses or local nonprofits through Stony Brook University's Center for Service Learning and Community Service (CSLCS). Using an asset based approach, students will work in groups to collaborate with the organization(s) to learn their needs then using what they learned from the first half, write mini white papers which will then be combined into a Collaborative White Paper for the organization(s).
