I informed Mr. Logan that I had just returned from Buffalo, NY due to a funeral therefore I was a little tired. Mr. Logan inquired if I wanted to reschedule. I advised, “no.” As I proceeded with the documentation training, Mr. Logan grew upset. I began explaining to Mr. Logan that his notes were not consistent.

I reviewed Mr. Logan’s notes again showing specifically what changes needed to be made. Mr. Logan verbalized again that he did not see anything wrong with his notes. I explained to Mr. Logan that if the changes were not made according to how he was being trained, all his notes would be returned. Mr. Logan replied, “Oh well, I’ll just send them back.” AS I made another attempt to show Mr. Logan a simpler way of correcting his notes he became rude commanding, demanding that I “come on and hurry up.” I advised Mr. Logan to reframe from speaking to me in a condescending tone. Mr. Logan’s voice grew louder as his speech began to increase. At this time, I informed Mr. Logan that training was over, if he refused to be quite and listen. Mr. Logan continued

    For the most part, our similarities such as goals, amount of comments, and the way comments are written and to praise or criticize became main points for students to learn to read and respond properly and adequately towards a student’s paper. Richard Straub’s reading is advice for students on what to do exactly when responding in order for them to manage a paper without to rely on the teacher; remember the teacher will not always be there to guide you. Writing in full statements and be serious on what you comment is what Richard Straub and I experienced with reading and responding. Small dull statements will lead the writer to nowhere near improving because he or she will be confused and not know what to do. Overall, Richard Straub experiences and mine are the same in terms on how each thing is being done and achieve the goal of helping the writer improve its…

    The writing style of Mary Lawson appears to revolve around understanding the characters. The story to this point is focused by the characters experiencing their conflicts, and relationships with one another being affected by the reactions to the struggle. Mary is very descriptive about the battles the family goes through without parents, and attempts to make the issues very realistic with lifelike characters. When Kate and Bo saw their brothers fighting Kate describes Bo’s reaction as, “ I looked down and saw Bo shaking so that even her hair seemed to vibrate. She’d gone rigid, her arms sticking down stiffly at her sides, fingers spread, and her mouth was open wide and tears were pouring down her face…

    Over the course of this semester in my English 1320 class I have seen a drastic change throughout my writing style. Although I still have difficulties with a few writing tasks, I believe that I have improved significantly throughout this course. I have found that with my professor’s guidance along with my own personal editing that my grades have increased. Although it is difficult to not get caught up in simply striving for a letter grade or attaining a 4.0 grade point average, I would like to believe that my main goal was different. Of course I would love to achieve those goals as well, but overall my primary goal throughout this class was to become more relaxed and comfortable in my writings, to use new strategies and proper kinds of conventions, and to truly find a way to express my passion on these papers.…

    In writing classes the most common first day question is whether or not spelling and grammar will count. Most commonly students focus more on how they are writing and if it is grammatically correct or not rather than writing their inner thoughts.

Connor displays cause and effect throughout his essay to show how different ways of teaching affect students performance and effort level. When Connor first began teaching he wanted to be a different type of teacher.…
