Eng 5. The Writing Process. Anne Whitaker. Critical
Thinking. A semester of assignments, peer reviews, and they say I say. I knew
coming into this class I would have to write a couple papers, but never did I
think about all the other stuff we’ve done. Like my favorite, Shitty First
Draft. Week after week there was some deadline we had to meet or some blog post
that needed to be typed. From all the marks and suggestions on my first drafts
to the good job from my peer reviews, English 5 has been a roller coaster. But
in all honesty I can say from my first essay in this class to my most previous
I have undoubtedly become a stronger writer. I am more confident in my writing
and now have tools that can only make my writing get better. I hope this
“discourse community” of English 5 shares the same thing. If there’s one thing
I learned it’s that paper is never perfect and can always be REVISED OR PROOF
READ. And even though I seen these blogs as a burden in the beginning of this
semester, I enjoyed reading al your guy’s and I hope mine was a favorite.
Ahh, another thing to warm my heart. It has been a roller coaster - a roller coast is a fun thing, right? I have enjoyed this class and am glad to hear that you feel like a better writer.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the interesting blog posts - I'm interested to see what you write and put in your portoflio.
Hey Joel, I was actually in your peer review group for the first and last essay and to be truly honest your writing was very good from the beginning of the class. Not only that but in both peer review sessions you have given me lots of good ideas as to how I should try and revise my essay.
ReplyDeleteI was in your peer revising group as well and your ability to think outside of the box is what makes your writing so unique. For example, expanding your Graff paper on Hidden Intellectualism according to the time it was written was a good idea that I wouldn't have considered. Its been fun reading your blogs and essays
