Abstract :
The study of rhetoric has long been a route to empowerment for people, by helping them share their ideas and inspire cooperation from others. This research discusses the possibility of designers of programming environments to piggyback on that success which would allow people without computer science training to leverage their human communication skills more fully when programming.
