What will be an ideal response?
The answer should focus on how Greg should first work to understand the external
constraints imposed by audience, environment, and occasion. Second, Greg should engage and
immerse himself in the new area. For instance, the textbook provides a suggestion to research the
area, research local news articles, or talk to people from the area. Third, Greg should research all
sides of the issue that he will be talking to his audience about. If Greg does all of these things
then he should be able to establish credibility with his audience.
