page and what is happening part. It has always been something that I need to figure out, and I am still figuring it out to this day. Ever since the first day of kindergarten, I have been terrible at writing, reading, and most anything related to the English subject. In kindergarten, I distinctly remember how to spell words on a paper that was a picture of a fish. My best friend at the time, picked it up like it was nothing.

feedback, summative and formative. Formative feedback entails commenting throughout the text on specific errors or missteps that encourages and informs a writer of any gaps in their writing. In view of this, we are of the opinion that feedback in a Writing Centre, focused as it is on writing as a process, needs to be encouraging and formative. Writers need to see writing a continuous process which can always be improved upon. In contrast, summative feedback is a little too general and it is…

A lot of astonishing writers of the past and present can all agree that there are allot of amazing writers in this world. Ernest Hemingway once said “For a true writer, each book should be a new beginning where he tries again for something that is beyond attainment. He should always try for something that has never been done or that others have tried and failed. Then sometimes, with great luck, he will succeed” - Hemingway. This quote means that some writers make up stories while others use…

“Temporary Home” by Carrie Underwood is the perfect song to compare to the My Favorite Word essay. In this song she sings about a few storylines. There about people who are living in houses, not homes. This is a major topic throughout my paper. There are connotations with the word house. It feels cold and focuses on the structure. A home is inviting and full of loved ones. This song represents that idea, which is why I chose it. When I handed in my essay for peer response I did not have a…

Every person has strengths and weaknesses when it comes to writing papers and after writing multiple papers throughout my high school career, I’ve discovered I have more weaknesses than strengths. I believe that I noticed more weaknesses than strengths because it is easier for a person to point out the flaws in themselves rather than the positives. My greatest strengths are not procrastinating, staying focussed when writing and using a variety of vocabulary words. A few of my weaknesses are…

Holt provides many supporting arguments that strengthen his claim. One claim that I agree with is when Holt states, “Third, and most important, we learn to write by writing, not by reading other people’s ideas about writing. What most students…

I’m not like the usual people who write, I don’t have to write. I’m not the person who has to pour his or her soul on the paper just to make it through the day. When I wrote my first screenplay for an eleven minute long short film, I was ecstatic. My over sentimental feelings were finally being released and I could stop bursting out in tears in the slightest misfortune. Since I was younger I had the habit of bottling up my feelings and often would release them at the most inappropriate moments.…

This year so far has been a growing period in respect to my learning. English 1101 has helped me to learn many concepts; some of these being writing, reading, peer-editing, and time management. These concepts are not solely related to the basis of this class, but rather related to real-world skills. They are things that are applicable to everyday life. Over the course of progression, we are all going to have some forms of challenges. My biggest challenge so far is time management. Managing time…

Steven Barnhart has potential. After a little bit of a bumpy start, he got the hang of the system and how to operate Trello and BLOX. He was consistently prompt in letting me know which stories he planned on editing in his workflow. He responded in a timely manner and was able to catch some errors.
