Substantive due process

Instead of rushing headlong into a paper and writing it all in one sitting, working through the writing process actually forced me to stop and thoroughly read every source to find what information I agreed/disagreed with. Pre-writing helped to pinpoint what my beliefs/ideas were in both the personal culture paper as well as the quote-directed paper. Peer review and tutoring really helped to improve the conciseness of my papers, drawing all my thoughts and ideas into clear, cohesive paragraphs…

me an assignment that’s boring, or something I don’t like, then I’m going to have a hard time writing it and it’s probably not going to be a hundred percent. From my very first piece of writing to now, my writing process and interest have undergone a very big changed. As my writing process changed through the years, so have my thoughts about writing and the experiences that go with it. When I have to write anything I…

1.1) Prompts: What do you mean, exactly, when you say you agree or disagree with the belief? Can you explain you explain more fully why you think the belief is true or false? I was in agreement with many of the believes given in the list of this activity, I ultimately decided on having number three as the one I disagree with the most and number 8 as the one I agree with the most. I chose number 3 as the one I disagree most with because we are not born with a particular skill set, babies are…

world. I have come about many strategies, learning process, and more techniques to become what is called a “better writer”. As a writer I can say that I love my paper to stand out and to make the reader say, “Wow!” because what’s the point of writing a paper or story that is boring and makes the reader fall asleep. As a writer in this course I believed that I have improved tremendously and I have dedicated an enormous amount of time to the writing process throughout this semester compared to my…

Composition Process Writing is a process that allows me to be heard. I am a timid person when it comes to speaking aloud. However, writing enables me to speak volumes. Most of the time my writing process is carefully organized. Other times I struggle to even form a sentence. My writing process consists of creating a structured format, a peaceful writing environment, tools to write, and communication with others if I should have trouble writing. Writing is an easy and simple process when it is…

On April 15th I had the great pleasure of experiencing a service at a Mosque with Sarah. Upon first arrival the building seemed much like any other place of worship I have seen. The difference is that I actually went in and before I did go in, I had to do something I have never done before. I have always thought that the head coverings that most woman wear were really cool. Wearing one was actually fun, even if a little difficult since I seemed to have forgotten a hairband. Going in there was no…

college they are attending is because they get drafted into the league. Due to this happening it considers the athlete a college dropout. Also by this happening it makes the schools themselves look bad as a whole, because people look at graduation rate to see which has the highest in order to know that they have a better chance of getting their degree, as well as a good education. College athletes also dropout of college due their academic performance. This is caused by the student not being…

rhetorical analysis, I never imagined the amount of steps it would include. As I learned first about rhetoric itself, and then moved onto adding the elements of rhetoric into my own writing, I soon realized there was a complex web of the writing process that would I have to spin for each essay. The task of successfully writing essays based on the rhetorical analysis of well-known pieces of literature included many vital strategies and techniques that I personally had to implement and improve on…

Prewriting was the next step in the rhetorical analysis process that prepared me for the structure of the essay that would follow. Outlining had always been something I would skip when it came to writing essays; although after reading about the importance of prewriting and finding that thesis and topic sentences were priority on drafting worksheets, I reconsidered. On the prewriting step of Henry and Little, I started by narrowing down my options for strategies and rhetorical devices to use as…

In the process of Learning My writing experiences have been far and few between. This semester will have a great deal of learning for me. I don’t want to claim that I do not know how to write because basic communication is something we all use every day. I think it’s the fact that your words are put to paper and out there for all scrutiny. It is intimidating and intriguing at the same time. I really enjoy reading and enjoy the way these authors can bring out so much emotion from their readers…
