Big Ideas
Big feelings
- how I read the world and interact w text
- past experiences influence me
- my process during the draft
- annotation process
- trapped in room by internet limited to room house school
- past teachers influence my writing and reading skills by giving a formula but one teacher open my eyes by getting me to think little harder than my other classes did distracted by the internet now my schedule has changed more work
- beginning I did not know what to write on because I was not sure what exercise related but I found one that connect through the long process of thinking.
- difficult finding a quote because they all related on how you saw the world but I did not go out much
Big feelings
- I have gotten more work and working on my ability for time management and giving myself a balance between school and personal life
- Peers work identifies everyone is working toward their own goals that motivates me to keep having little goals to achieve
- still learning on how to manage the work load by planner and etc. and calculating the time each subject takes along with commutes. etc.
Big actions
- Choosing an story that was personally mine I didn't know what to write about only tow examples camp up
- keeping up with 3 drafts was okay I thought I rationed my time well for my essay
- I could ask for more help I have a habit of hesitating and standing up for myself
- `past revisions I just had grammar corrections and offering ideas for past I did not put in much effort
- for peers feed back had to offer what I thought they could include in their drafts not granmar help each other
- I felt dans feed back was really helpful and constructive, he offered new ideas that could help build my essay
- I spent maybe 9 hours total for the essay and for the rescissions took longer cause I hd too make it sound good
- now that I'm done with the essay I felt I could have concentrated on there vcontent and expanding on some ideas
I feel okay for this class now that the essays out of the way one less thing for me to worry about
What I learned about myself
During the formation of this essay, I had difficulty finding an experience I could write on because my interactions int her past were so limited. I had to learn how to manage my time and balance out the workload with my personal life. I found this essay was easier when I found an experience then built on it during the second draft. Since I have a habit of not asking for help I would like to work on that trait. In the past, my revisions included correcting grammar along with sharing ideas and giving constructive criticism. For my peers feedback, I found it to be vey helpful knowing their input. Professor Dan's feedback was also helpful. He gave questions that lead me to think of how I should expand on some ideas. When I was revising I struggled where to insert the quotes. Now that I am done with my essay I feel that it is one less thing for me to worry about. I learned I could ask for more help when I needed it.7
