  ROMP packaging and synthesis The goal of packaging and synthesizing your genres together in this project is to create a sense of purposeful coherence—a creative way for the project to come together so your audience can understand it. Below are some ideas for ways other multigenre research writers have packaged their projects. Next to each, write down some ideas, pros, and cons about this strategy in relation to your own project.  ** Packaging - 5 common approaches  ** (Note: these are suggestions, not requirements, so feel free to use others) EXAMPLE: A collection of photos, letters, and memorabilia collected by a person who attended a famous event || I can put all of my genres into a scrapbook. I can use the same colors I used in my other genres to decorate the scrapbook. || It’s an easy way to display all of genres. It easy because I centered my project around one person so it would be easy to make a scrapbook. || It won’t fit all of my genres. I don’t think it would be realistic that a mother would put a letter from a doctor or a brochure in a scrapbook. || EXAMPLE: A box of top-secret evidence or professional documents ||  ||   ||  This wouldn’t fit my genres because none of my information is top secret. || EXAMPLE: A themed issue relating advertisements, articles, interviews, etc. to a single person, event, or problem || I can put all of my genres into an informational magazine. || It’s an easy way to display my information and it fits my purpose of informing people that don’t know about autism. || It might be hard to fit all of my genres into one magazine and have it all make sense. || EXAMPLE: Artifacts left behind in the attic or recovered after the war which give clues to the person or event responsible for their creation || I think this is a good idea for my project, except instead of it being recovered after a war it’s a memory chest saved by a mother. || This idea is the one that would fit my genres the best. A mother would save an essay about her son and a flyer from an event the held for him. || It might not be realistic for a mother to save a letter from a doctor diagnosing her son with autism in a memory chest. || EXAMPLE: A metaphor or symbol for the topic becomes the container (like film canisters for a project about a movie star) || This is another good idea for my project. I can keep it all in a box decorated with pictures he has drawn since I said he loved to draw or maybe I can decorate a box like a puzzle box since that’s the symbol for autism. || Its easy to keep all of the genres in a box like this because its symbolic and not as formal as a memory box. || Again the only genre that I see having trouble fitting into this is the letter form the doctor. ||  Synthesis – 5 common approaches (Note: these are suggestions, not requirements, so feel free to use others) EXAMPLES: · A letter to the reader · A recipe that is also a table of contents || I can write a letter to the reader explaining all of my genres and why I put them in the order that I did. || This is a good way of explaining why I put the genres in the order I did. There is a specific way that the genres should be read in order for them to all blend together correctly. || I wouldn’t know who to exactly address the letter to. || EXAMPLES: · Quotes that correspond to each genre · Headlines || I can use specific parts of a genre or genres that have a strong meaning or purpose and repeat them throughout the project. || It could help inform the audience of the important parts of the information so that they learn about the topic. || I don’t know how I would repeat the text throughout the project, or which piece of text would be the best to repeat. || EXAMPLES: · Timeline · Lines from poem/song || I can use a timeline to represent each important time in the persons life. || It would help show why I put the genres in the order that I did. It would also highlight the most important times in his life. || It might not fit with the rest of my genres, and it might not create a unified project. || // or graphic  // EXAMPLES: · Logo · Cartoon commentator ||  I could use a picture of the autism ribbon with the puzzle pieces on it as a repeating picture. || Since my whole project Is on autism the picture would fit. || It might not fit with my other genres though, because I am talking a bout an individual person with autism and not the organization. || EXAMPLES: · An idea in one piece appears in the next · “Voices” that respond to each other ||  I could use different points of view or voices to link each genre together. || It’s a good way to link genres together and make a unified project. ||  ||  Now that you’ve considered the above examples, please answer the following questions:  1. How might you package your project in a way appropriate to…  a. Your topic? I might put it into a memory box  b. Your audience? An informational magazine  c. Your purpose? An informational magazine  2. How might you synthesize the genres in your project in a way appropriate to…  a. Your topic? To use different voices and points of view to show a rounded view of the topic  b. Your audience? Different voices to help the reader get a good idea of what it’s like to live with the disorder or to live with someone who has it.  c. Your purpose? Different voices because I want to inform people who don’t know about the topic and the only way to do that is to show it from all different views
