Final Post

Write one last blog post answering the following questions: 

  • Which in class writing was your favorite? Why?
  • Which in class writing was your least favorite? Why?
  • Review all your writing chronologically (earliest to latest). List three interesting observations or changes in your writing. Which are the most profound (obvious and important)? Why?
  • If you could change anything about your writing this semester what would it be? Why?
  • What did you like best about this course?
  • What did you like least about this course?
  • What would you have done differently this semester if you could have a do-over?
  • What did learn about yourself as a student, a thinker, a writer this semester?
  • What could I, Ms. A., have done differently to improve the course?
  • You begin this course with an engagement and participation score of an A.  Attendance, participation in activities and group work help you to maintain this grade.  Evaluate yourself and assign yourself a grade for the in class portion of this course.  Don’t forget the reasoning behind your self assigned grade.

When you are finished, submit a direct link to your blog post.  You will find a link to submit your blog under the TurnItIn! button. This link will remain open until May 4, midnight.

  • I think that my favorite writing was the pigeon possible, because I enjoyed writing from different view of people. Rather be from someone who was on the street witnessing or  writing in the view of the pigeon. Plus we got to watch a short movie on it.
  • I think that my least favorite was the one where we had to come up with a slogan of are own. I completely could not think of anything to write and am just not good at come up with thing like that.
  • After reviewing my writing that I've done in here. I notched one change, that was the writing progressed, I wrote more and more. I think I was getting more and more comfortable about my writing. Another change I notice was the use of my words. I would not use so much descriptive or as my learn the call them, juicy words, in stead I would use little to none bigger word due to the fear of not being able to spell them. And finally, I noticed that I actually liked writing those little workshops. With that, I gradually would put more thought & soul into the writings.
  • If I could change one thing about my writing it would be to put in more effort into my writings. I'm not going to lie, I didn't like them very much at first because I just didn't like writing, but I warmed up to it. And ended up liking it.
  • What I liked best about this course was that it was not like a regular English class, were you have to do an essay one after another. It got old really fast.
  • The thing I liked the least was the I Believe essay. I didn't enough it very much because I could really think of anything. And I didn't quite understand it, which on my part is stupid because I could have asked the instructor what to do.
  • What I would do differently if I got to do a do-over would be to attend class more than I did. And to finish all of my work instead of just doing some of it and forgetting about it.
  • I learned that as a student that I need to attend my classes more to know what's going on, as a thinker, that I have require a little more time to gather idea's because I am not a heavy use of creative, and final as a writer I learned that I have a lot potently, I just need to use and apply it more. 
  • I think that we could have done more writing because to me they are very engaging and I had a lot of fun with them.
  • After evaluating myself with all my work I've done and the amount of time spent in class. I think my letter grade should be somewhere between B & C. Honestly probably a C because I may have done the class work, but I didn't finish all of it sometimes. But majority of the time I did, and did what was asked for us for those assignments. But I did miss a couple of days there in class and from the I Believe essay, I didn't get around to finishing it so I just never turned it in. That probably part of my reason, not turning it in.
