Bitzer states that “Neither the presence of formal features in the discourse
nor persuasive effect in a reader or hearer can be regarded as reliable marks
of rhetorical discourse: A speech will be rhetorical when it is a response to
the kind of situation which is rhetorical.”
Do
you agree with this assessment? Do you think rhetorical discourse can spring
from a non-rhetorical situation? More broadly, do you agree with Bitzer’s
assertion that the situation is the sole deciding factor as to whether or not
discourse is rhetorical?

In the “Disability and
Accessibility” article it is stated “Teacher
workshops should stress accessible course design and emphasize a dynamic,
recursive, and continual approach to inclusion rather than mere
troubleshooting.”
While
I recognize that different types of disabilities require different practices,
in general, what practices do you think teachers can enact to insure that their
classrooms are accessible and inclusive for students with disabilities?
