Website/Audience Proposal

Alex Grealish


1 The audience for my topic are parents raising children on low-income salaries. Parents of any age, but with children ranging from preschool to middle school. It can be for parents having issues with their children behavior and not knowing where it is coming from. Teachers may also use this site. Teachers located in poorer communities who are trying to find information on why their students might be behaving badly.

2. My audience has a background of low income, children with behavior issues, or families with low incomes thinking of having children. I will need to include background information on the age and environments these children were tested in and what effects were shown.

3. My audience might be oriented towards my topic because they are having troubles with their children and are trying to find out why they are acting this way. It may also be teachers trying to help their troubled students. I envision my audience as being very interested in my research question. I expect my reader to be agreeable, and that they are finding where these bad behaviors are deriving from and can agree that this could be one of the reasons they are acting this way.

4. There are not many areas of disagreement or controversy in my topic. One might be that this reason of children in low-income homes having behavior issues isn't the specific reason a child is acting poorly. It could be for many other reasons.

5. To capture the attention of my audience and convince them to listen to me i will use lots of facts and information to back up and explain the facts. I will also cite the information by using legitament sources that they can trust.

6. My contribution is that of why children in low-income families may be behaving poorly.
