Looking back on W131
During the semester in English W131 we were supposed to have met six different goals that have been put into place since the beginning of the semester. I am proud to say that because of my participation in this class, I have met and exceeded all expectations for all of these goals during the semester. At the beginning I was overwhelmed when looking at the syllabus. I didnt know at the time what a reflective, summary strong response, image analysis, synthesis, or retrospective essay was. However, because of discussion in class and reviewing of the textbook, I have created a better understand of all of these types of writing and I am now more confident when it comes to writing these types of papers. Because of this class, writing in the future, whether it be for other classes or for my career as an adult, will come a lot easier. Meeting the six goals proposed at the beginning of the semester has definitely helped me to become a better writer and will continue to make my writing better in the future.

I must agree that the course goals seem to have come just by participating in class. Though I had a broad understanding of what the essays were supposed to be about, discussion in class helped to bring out new ideas and levels of detail to my writing.
ReplyDeleteI also felt a feeling of being overwhelmed while looking through the syllabus, but as the semester progressed I felt as if it wasn't so bad, easy even, compared to my other classes.
