Answer: “Although 83%
of responding teachers said they attempt to prepare students as both senders
and receivers of persuasion, 43% of these emphasize the role of sender, and
only 15% emphasize the role of receiver.” DJ Dieterich. 1976. P. 291.
Comment: The imbalance between writing persuasion and
reading it surprised me. But maybe I should not be surprised. How many English
teachers emphasize critical reading in their classes? It was always on my mind,
but I never taught it directly. RayS.
