Business, Conflict Resolution
Below is the copy of the direction from Discipline Project’s instruction:
Step Two: Next, identify a genre of public writing for your translation of the article and learn how it shapes its information for a general, educated audience. The objective is to shift the audience from an academic one to a public, educated one. You may choose to write an article in a magazine dedicated to topics in your field, a newspaper article that reports research findings, or even a feature article in one of the better newspapers, such as The New York Times.
Direction:
In your group, find one public magazine article, one professional blog. professional organization website, or specialized professional publication ( such as trade publication), that engages with a topic of relevance to your field of study or discipline. In the two examples, you must discuss the same topic.
Magazine articles for this activity refer to texts written for specialized, educated professionals. Professional blogs also mean blogs written by someone who has advanced knowledge in the topic.
Good examples of specialized, professional publications or magazines that cover specialized topics for the professional or educated audiences:
The Economist, The Conversation, Business Insider, Inside Higher Education, Healthcare IT News, The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, Science Daily, SciTech Daily, Security Magazine, Live Science, etc.
Examples to avoid: USA News, USA Today, CNN, BBC (these are large, reliable public publication with a long history, but the depth of their coverage is not as analytic or informative as the commentaries or debates in the above-mentioned publications)
