Weblog for Small Nonprofits

Weblog for small nonprofit
Daniel Richards
University of South Florida

Rationale:

This project was taught to a third-year professional writing class consisting of students from all majors of life. The theme of the course was "Social Media: Transforming Professional Communication Practices," and as such each project required a certain degree of participation in social media platforms. In this case, students were asked to create a Wordpress blog and envision themselves as an intern or new employee at a zoological rescue/rehabilitation center (obscure, I know, but I wanted to choose one organization for the entire class to help facilitate class discussions and have a more centralized and relevant common course content).

Rhetoric and ethics are related, Aristotle noted long ago. Our rhetorical choices reflect our values and our purposes. Especially in our activities to engage the public in complex technical issues, appropriate and effective rhetorical choices are vitally important.

Pavel Zemliansky

As ATTW members know, in late 2010, the organization’s website was redesigned and re-launched using a new software platform (the open source content management system Drupal). The main purpose of the redesign was to improve communication between the organization and its members by creating a more interactive online platform and though an increased use of social media.
