    Writing on the most basic level is more than just a string of symbols arranged for meaning. Chapter 2 of Rhetoric for Writing Teachers presents the working definition of writing as “a process of communication that uses a conventional graphic system to convey a message to a reader” (10). Understanding the dynamic interplay of the subject, message, reader, and writer is paramount to producing effective writing. Lindemann’s deconstruction of Roman Jakobson’s version of the communication diagram offers intriguing insight into the complex pathways of written communication, thus leading the writing teacher to a greater understanding of student writing difficulties. Students have often said, “Why do I have to take English?…

    This type of data is the right choice for my research question because it will allow me to have a larger sample size than interviews or observations would allow due to lack of time and a presence of geographical obstacles. Also, I think that surveys will allow me to develop, review my questions, and ask my respondents in a uniform matter. I have decided not to use interviews because I am not an experienced interviewer (or researcher for that matter), and may begin to ask leading questions or questions that are framed poorly without being able to catch it as it is happening. With this survey, I will be utilizing both multiple choice and short answer questions. The short answer questions will allow individuals to elaborate more on their thought process and their personal experiences.…

In the beginning of the school year, my writing fell short of my expectations, but as I continued to work and learn the principles of writing, I have written papers that I am proud to say are mine. Among the aspects of my writing I have improved, the best strives are seen within my my counter arguments and overall strength and coherency of my papers. To begin, when looking at a paper I wrote in August on necessity of first drafts, there were large gaps in my elaboration, bringing concerns as to whether I was arguing and proving a point or merely summarizing what Lamott, the author of the article, originally said. When attempting to argue my evidence, I stated,…

    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. Jack Connor in his essay, “Will Spelling Count?”, argues that writing requires meticulous efforts through his use of cause and effect, comparison and contrast, and division and classification. 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.…

    A couple things I would change are how I plan out developing the speech and how much to practice it. For developing the speech, I need to be sure of what exactly I want to talk about at the interview. I felt that my questions were interesting, but a couple were somewhat unneeded. However, I came to the conclusion that it is better to have too much than not enough for an interview because I had enough information to work with. Also, I should have taken more time to thoroughly practice my speech out loud in front of others.…
