Essay #1 Reflection
I believe that writing is ones way to express their thoughts, but also organizing them. when you have a lot on your mind, writing is a great way to let it all out. with this class i’ve learned that writing is more than educational and bland. people have different reasons to write and most of the time it has nothing to do with information. with the sources i’ve researched, the authors wrote their pieces with the hopes of educating their audiences and allowing themselves to empty out their heads. for my own writing, i started out with a separate brainstorm. in school i was taught to simply let out all of my thoughts onto paper first. i knew which topic i wanted to write about so i listed the pros & cons of the sources that i used so i can ultimately make the decision of “should i use this source or will it confuse me later on?” i ended up finding 9 sources but of course i was only able to use 4. using a brainstorming strategy really helped me with my writing process. i think my writing could’ve been more better if i focused on organizing the sources separately. i could’ve approached this assignment with separate brainstorms instead of fitting it all into one paper. nonetheless, i think my writing was successful because it was my first time writing a five-paged paper and I was able to complete it by the deadline. this assignment challenged my writing abilities and i am looking forward to the next assignment and how i can improve my work from there.
