What is the difference between audience and context




















Format of the Analysis: You need not think of this assignment as a paper. Your analysis will consist of three parts. You may use headings. You may also number your responses.

Part II - Context Analysis. Possible Purpose: Forge relevancy i. Does the topic cover information that is not commonly understood? Topic includes information or uses terminology that might not be known to people outside of that field. Ex: Lawyers in the U. Army are better qualified than civilian lawyers. Possible Purpose: Provide Information. Has the topic been subject to widespread misinformation or rumors? Topic is not highly technical, but is misunderstood due to widespread information.

Ex: Now that Ebola has arrived in the U. Possible Purpose: Analyze. Readers might also vary in how familiar they are with the context. When you are writing a document for example, a letter to a single person or to a small, well-defined group of people, you might be tempted to jump directly to the heart of the matter, assuming context is unnecessary. This person or group of people, who are your primary readers, may indeed know the context.

Still, they may not be mindful of it when they read your document. Moreover, your document might end up being read by people you did not identify, such as those who were forwarded your document by a primary reader or perhaps those who will obtain your document in the future. These people, who are your secondary readers, will not know or remember the context. An effective document makes sense to both primary and secondary readers.
