ABSTRACT

In this final chapter we explore the remaining threads of the rhetorical design process and loose ends that remain. The threads represent the components of our architecture that we have yet to discuss, namely, the Strategic and Presentation modules. A third thread is the question of coordination across modules, how the various modules of our architecture are woven together (or coordinated) within the design process. The loose ends are a collection of issues, ideas, and directions that arise from our theory of rhetorical design. They do not fill in information about our architecture per se, but furnish jumping off points for further inquiry over a range of issues in which our architecture might be applied and extended.
