Materials Analysis

The Materials Analysis is a brief report (~3–4 pages) that explicates why each of your three materials (Press Release, Internal Memo, Video Message) is successful. The Materials Analysis thus should clarify how the materials effectively suit the class-generated rubrics. Its structure is outlined below:

1. Introduction: The introduction should briefly recap the crisis.
2. Body: The body should contain three subsections with headers corresponding to the Press Release, Internal Memo, and Video Message. Each subsection should connect the document's concrete features with associated rubric criteria to demonstrate its effectiveness. Explain how each item fits rubric criteria; don't just state that it does.
3. Conclusion: The conclusion should briefly state how the three materials work as a unit to address the crisis.

The analysis should speak in the third person about how the materials function; it should not discuss you nor your design process.

These student examples may be useful (but keep in mind that they connect to different rubrics):

• 2017 mayor arrest
• 2017 Pepsi ad
