The items I have learned in this class have helped me become
a better and more effective writer. I am currently getting my degree in Special
Education so being an effective write will help me in my career. Many teachers
are required to write grants to gain needed educational items for their
classrooms. When writing grants you are
pleading with individuals to give you money for items you need and I think
being able to effectively display ethos, logos, and pathos will help in my
grant writing.
This class has also taught me how to organize my thoughts on
paper and how to effectively display those thoughts onto paper. I am also more
familiar with MLA format and no longer scared to start a paper. We all know
part of college includes writing many papers. The information I have learned in
this class will also help me throughout the rest of my college journey.
Especially in my writing classes that I have to complete after this one such as
EN140 and LI243. I will be able to build upon what I learned in this class to
become an even better writer. Lastly, I am more comfortable when reading other peoples
writing because I have a better understanding of writing techniques.
You, like me, seem to have a real appreciation for what we have learned in this class. I used several examples just like you, but you talked about some I forgot about. How could I forget about MLA style? I didn't even know what it was until this class started. I hope as you said this helps you with your teaching degree. Good luck to you!

ReplyDeleteI too will be using my writing skills from this class next semester in EN-140. Good luck in the future!
Natasha, I'm glad you've identified long-term goals or applications for your writing (grant writing). You certainly can apply what you've learned this semester to that genre of writing. Keep up your great work, and be confident in it!
