Thlog Seven

On the seventh week of Writing 2, I learnt that the class had similar struggles, strengths, and improvements as me from Writing the Writing Project 2. My struggles, as well as student ID 3 was not knowing whether I covered everything in class in my writing. My strengths similarly to student ID 6, were the structure and organization of the paper. Zack has taught me the vitality of structuring and outlining each paragraph to talking about one topic. The tip of brainstorming/mind mapping was extremely beneficial for this due to the different topics that needed to be talked about in WP2. Another extremely beneficial thing I learnt for my writing is breaking up my paragraphs and sentences into a poem, as I sometimes ramble on in writing and can completely confuse my readers. This advice supported my organization in my WP2, and connecting each sentence to the next. Peer reviews are honestly the most beneficial help to me, as it helps me figure out their strengths and weaknesses, as well as my peer noticing my strengths and weaknesses. This way points out how I can improve and enhance their understanding of my writing.

Unfortunately due to travelling to NCAA’s, and with poor reception during the trip, I couldn’t attend the online lesson meeting. However, looking through the lesson plan for Wednesday, I assumingly learnt the initial start of writing project #3. I never realized the effect of genre and how it can be transformed into other genres, for example, for a younger audience, transforming a scholarly article into a certain game at the back of a cereal box. I found this extremely interesting. I am very excited to plan and write my WP3.
