Blog 6


Is our class a discourse community?

Yes, we are a discourse community, we as students have similar goals and expectations of us. Some of us can be labeled as (full-time/part-time) students, moms/ dads, employees. Discourse is a person’s identity. Discourse is the way a person moves, walks, and talks. These are some of the discourse labels we carry as students. We all have a purpose and we look within inside of ourselves to find that certain discourse and we carry out character within that. The shared goals do not only deal with learning and educating but it deals with anything they have in common such as being Kean Students or living on or off campus. We are from a similar discourse because of where we come from, and what interest us etc. Networking with a friend and writing our blogs are ways that it allows us to learn and communicate amongst each other. By texting, looking at each other blogs, reading the book are ways in which we are learning. In a Discourse community people learn from one another.
