There are 5 parts to this paper that must be included. You are welcome to include them in
the order listed below but the final essay needs to be a well-flowing essay that does more
than just answer the questions below. Please be sure to quote from and cite your original
restaurant review and the Opt and Gring Rhetoric of Social Intervention book. Please be
sure to use page numbers for the book citation and the last name of your review author
(and date) from your restaurant review. Example: (Opt & Gring, p. 7); (Smith, 2020).
Parts of the Paper:
Introduction Give a quick overview of the review and
1. Name and describe the intervener (the author and the newspaper or website
sponsor of the review) and the intervention (the restaurant review)
2. Describe the system: Who and/or what is to be included in the system? (You
decide this). What is the system like BEFORE the intervention takes place? What do the
people in the system care about? What are the attitudes and values of those in the system
BEFORE the intervention?
Body of the Paper:
3. Describe intervention. What is your entry point (attention, power, or need)? What
are the tactics, strategies, and maneuvers used (see chapters 4 and 5)? Describe the
intervention, in its parts and whole and how the one subsystem you used as the entry point
also changes the other two subsystems. This means, if you used attention as the entry
point, then talk about how power and need are also affected.
4. Finally, talk about how the intervention potentially affects your system. What is
the system like, potentially, AFTER the intervention?
Conclusion
5. Wrap up your main argument(s) and tell how this helps you to better understand
the persuasion process and techniques people employ to persuade.
Other things to include in your paper:

*Please be sure to include your original review as part of your paper (add the URL to
the end or a copy of the review). The original review will not count against the page
limit.
