Blog Assignment: Road Map to Learning
I have listed questions below to help you reflect upon your reading and writing experiences in this class. Answer all or 3 or more questions to help you get started in reflecting upon your journey to learning. Take the following 20 minutes to develop a thorough response and then be prepared to share your findings in our final class discussion.
1) Did you achieve your writing goals?
2) What are the three most important reading/writing skills and tools did you develop in this course?
3) What are the three things you desire/wish you could do as a writer? (skills for development).
4) What have you discovered about yourself as a writer?
5) What have you discovered about your writer? Give specific examples.
6) What has helped you most with your writing this trimester?
7) Our topics of discussion have been focused on freedom. How have these discussion helped you as a reader and writer?
Answering the first question, I am so happy to say that I have achieved my writing goals. I practiced writing more creatively and connecting paragraphs more easily.
The three most important reading/ writing skills I developed during the time of this course would have to be; larger vocabulary to work with, I believe I was able to write out my personal thought better, and write better reflections on characters.
The three techniques that I desire; attention to detail, how to capture the reader's attention throughout a whole paper, and more vocabulary.
I have discovered that I'm not so terrible at describing things, and that thoughts on paper are valuable.
This semester, I have discovered that I can organize my thoughts into a paper. Specifically, in my Major Prophets class I was able to write a paper on Ezekiel with fully organized structure.
This trimester, writing has helped me become a better writer. I can learn all I want to about writing, but until I actually do it, I have now experience or time to figure out what sounds best. Or works best.
Our discussions on Freedom have helped me realize that, it is a big topic, and a very fascinating topic to write about. I think that in America we are very passionate about freedom, so a lot of that passion can come out when we write.
