English 1101 Research Paper

Improved Essays
English 1101 has been very helpful so far. I have learned that I definitely have things to work on while writing formal papers. I also have learned that I should take extra time when looking over my papers before hitting the submit button.
I think the biggest challenge really is working full time and going to school full time. I think it is difficult to balance the amount of school work I have to with the time that I have when I am not at work. Definitely should see if I can change my work schedule to part time so I have more time to focus on my school work. School is far more important to me then making a bigger check . It just means I have to sacrifice a little for school which is okay. In the end it will be totally worth it.
I can’t really

    In English 1002 you learn a style of writing that is vastly different than the writing I did throughout high school and it varied slightly from the work we did in the Fall 2016 semester. In high school, many of my papers could be written with little revision and they also focused mostly on literary responses, like writing book reports that took little effort and could be written along with the rubric and receive a good grade. In high school the most sources I was ever required to get was ten, so you can imagine how Unit II was a bit of a surprise that we needed fifteen sources just for the draft of our bibliography. The biggest lesson I have learned from this class is how to conduct real research. Before this class I never spent time looking for sources and just pulled pieces together to make them work together.…

    My revision of “Face it, America!” that follows this cover letter reflects what I have learned in English 1021 so far.
