Blog #12

During this the 1st to the 2nd blog entries I need to improve my own writing. I notice I had trouble with how I need to use evidence to support my own claim. There some point I can be off from topics but I need to come back to what the theme of my essay is. Then I had explain my own reader what was my essay going to be about. For example, was the essay an argument or persuasive I need to indicate what the reader was reading.  During my blog entries from 1-4, I stared to plan everything out with layout my ideas and structure the right information into the right paragraph. In blog 6 I didn’t have enough time nor read the instructions more carefully to do my essay. Last but not least, I felt I need help on my grammar based on how clear my sentences was and how I put or place my punctuation such as: column, commas, periods, and etc.
 On my 2nd blog entries I know we worked on watching two movies such as the Truman Show and The Matrix. In all our blogs we were able to using the dictionary, thesaurus and the writing handbook. I really enjoy looking up new words and even replacing them with something better. All our work was in live discussions which were interested because we were able to read and learn from different points of view. But really it had me worry about what to write down. There were some problems I had, it was based on what to I write down on my essay. Being on the computer it’s kind of difficult to type I really enjoy writing my essay and an outline based on what to write down, instead of typing the essay. There was a point in class that I learned to use an outline what I need to write down on my essay based on the program you introduce to us. I need to improve and break some bad habits. The last thing I should not do is cut off some major distraction while I’m on the computer is not connecting myself to Facebook. I know this is the worst habits because it would make me lose my concentration towards my work. There are things that I would need to improve such as: work on time, rereading the information or stuff I write down and even go to tutoring more often. I understand there are major fix up to do with my essay and even to revise all of my work before submitting or posting it into my blogs. Well now im back from my break I would keep my head on the game.


PS. Dr. smith i couldnt find my blue handbook where i wrote down my essay but i rewrote something diffrent.
