Taking A Stand In History

Decent Essays
Joan of Arc was really hard to choose, but at the same time essay. I wanted to do it on a girl, and I was left with five people. Then I had to apply it to the theme “ Taking a Stand In History”. I still had three left. Last, I wanted someone not involved with American, and that was when I choose Joan of Arc.

I don’t really like the ways I conducted my research. I got most of my research on websites. I don’t really like technology I would rather read a book on my topic. Most of the websites had the same things,but there were little things that were different. I also got information on a handout that my teacher gave me.

I am doing an exhibit, because I didn’t want to write ban essay. I also like to decorate the board. I plan on having a black board, lots of pictures, and really creative. I want to have a big picture of Joan of Arc in the middle of the board. I want to have a good title and timeline.

    My trip to the Barnes Foundation museum was enjoyable and informative. On my trip, as we moved through the galleria I was astounded by how the rooms in the galleria were arranged. It was not like your average museum, with one or two paintings on the walls with a description of it underneath. Instead, there were rooms with paints all over the walls, along with iron work that correlated with the pieces. Our tour guide elaborated on how he did not wish for there to be a description under the pieces of art stating their background.…

To be honest, I was terrified of jumping into my fall English 102 class.

However, as I walk away from my English 102 class I carry the understanding of writing a college level essay, undertaking research and completing a research and argument paper properly, and knowledge to prepare me for my other classes and profession.…
