Project 1 Topic Proposal

           The topic that I chose for the first project on questioning a writing construct is the idea of how texts inherently “mean” something- the same “something”- regardless of who’s reading them. I am choosing this topic because I believe that this is something that you can rethink and can have different aspects on.  It also creates some argument and people will have different views on it. This topic interested me because I believe that texts can have different meanings to different people. The way you interpret the meaning depends on who you are and your situation. Not everyone has to agree upon a text meaning the same thing. Many factors come into play while figuring out if two or more readers get the same meaning out of a text. Some of these factors include how much the reader knows about the topic, if the text is poorly written, or the point of view the reader has. I can support my argument on this construct with these factors and other research.
