India Albert in her column "What is happening to the education system?" Argues that the education system will fully change, there was someone placed in office who is not experienced with anything related to education. Albert supports her claim by stating how DeVos is inexperienced and how she is unqualified with the position granted to her. She then explains how people have sided with her and believe that she can make a good change for education. Lastly, the authors describes how she was refused entrance to a Washington school because she is unqualified for the position give. Albert's purpose is to make the news more public and to inform the people about the new decisions made regarding education, in order to make awareness regarding the subject and how history as been made. The author writes in a very concern and disappointing tone for students, teacher, and educators. This work is significant because the person place in office, makes important decisions regarding the educational system and she unqualified to do so.
In order to deliver important information Albert had to use strategies to do so.She uses Hypophora to question who Betsy DeVos is, but then she eminently "who is Betsy DeVos and what is the issue with this?" she gives background information on who she is and how she is important. She does this to question her position and how she make a negative impact. The author was also able to use paradox in her column by making statements regarding DeVos position and in what way she could be qualified. “She led the most effective public school reform movement over the last few years.” She is not a qualified person but many believe that she is. We all may wonder if there is truth behind the statement.
