Reflection Memo of Assignment 1 As I was revising my essay of Assignment 1, I started reviewing the whole process of how I constructed, wrote and revised. I really enjoy the process of deeply unearthing the great memories during my process of English learning, which was unforgettable. It is hard for me to forget how my first English teacher taught me: she was harsher than any teacher I met, but what she taught was invaluable. To be honest, the process of producing such an essay was arduous: as a non-native English writer, it was hard to select accurate words while describing the learning process. Thus, using dictionary to carefully select words is an essential part of my writing process. From writing such a narrative essay, I learned that

    Looking back on the last four years of my life as a student of English, I have come to the conclusion that they were years well spent. Throughout these four years, I have gained a wealth of knowledge and experience that is indispensable, and will be of great value to me in the career path I am pursuing. I take pride in the fact that I am not just an English major, but have concentrated in Advanced Composition and Rhetoric. This sense of dignity; however, was not always at the forefront of my mind or even considered, for on more than one occasion I had doubts concerning the process, and even became somewhat antagonistic towards the requirements I had to take to complete the process. These feelings of doubts and antagonism stem from the…

Drafty Drea knows that this first semester of college English is going to be a rude awakening for her.

    Another great techniques to have when writing an essay is diction. Meaning that the choice of words used in the essay would have to match the tone of the essay. For example, When writing about something happy, you don’t want to use the words like : frustrated , angry , sorrow because that wouldn’t make any sense. Stossel’s diction is accurate because as he is writing about being against television so he uses words like: intoxication , aggression, harmful and many more to describes his argument about television.…

    For my final portfolio, I chose to revise a shorter essay, “Potential Ramifications of a Trump Presidency,” and a longer essay, “Assignment 7: Finding Place Research Project.” I chose these two essays specifically because of their differences. The former is shorter, more informal, and includes more of my thoughts and opinions. The latter is a longer research paper, and thus is more formal and less biased as I attempted to give a brief history of gentrification and its impacts on East Liberty.…

    As I reflect on this semester in English 1A, I realized how much of a learning experience it has been for me. Although I often felt overwhelmed, I am very proud of myself for sticking it out. I feel that through all the struggles that I encountered through this class it has been a learning experience. I have always struggled with getting my words down on paper and now that this class is coming to an end I have gained more confidence in myself and in my ability to put my thoughts on paper. Though I felt as if many assignments were going to be impossible I feel that I have done pretty well.…

    Reflection Memo on Class Simulation for group 2 On site for group 2 we all agreed on the proposed goal of increasing the desirability of living on the site. After streamlining all our ideas and requirements we agreed to develop the site and to reserve some land for the following programs according to their hierarchy after simulation • Storm Water • Fitness Health Park • Affordable Housing • Falcon Sanctuary Storm Water Storm water treatment dominated our discussion and became our first choice since it was in the city dwellings and storm water retention was something that we cannot ignore for the fact that it can destroy dwellings and therefore the dwellings must be protected no matter what.

    This English class has been very helpful in my efforts to improve my writing abilities, but has also been very challenging due to there being a different median for every essay. It’s been a heavy work load especially this semester since I decided to enroll in five classes, but in the end it has been very beneficial indeed. I can’t say that writing essays has been one of my strong points but I believe that this course has helped me improve tremendously and it has also made me feel a lot more comfortable with my writing. While in high school I would usually write all of my essays a day before the due date a habit of mine that was very difficult to overcome, but now I have learned from my mistakes.…
