Discussion Questions

:

-How can rhetorical practices be attuned to local cultures and their diverse knowledge making practices? In light of the methodologies such as “training cultural impacts,” and “digital ethnography” (adopted by Maher & Getto), what effective measures can be adopted by technical and professional communication scholars to create and disseminate knowledge from diverse places and cultures?

 

 

Using vernacular to better reach to the community and make the communication relatable. Being culturally sensitive by not engaging in exclusivist rhetoric because by engaging might undermine other cultures and put what we are talking about in the spot and create a perceived power and balance.
