Coming into English 100, I was not sure what to expect. I was very nervous, and then you mentioned the word BLOG, that through me for a loop.Not knowing anything about computers let alone a blog I thought I was doomed from the beginning. I have never had to write an essay before in my life that I could remember, so after hearing about all this stuff on the first day, I really wasnt going to come back for the next class. After taking English 100 and with a lot of patience and help, I believe that I am capable of writting some what of a essay on different subjects and people.
Over the last 3 months taking the class has helped me to understand the different parts that make up an essay, such as the introduction, body, conclusion and probably the most important part, the thesis.
After I understood the blog I started enjoying using it. It made it easier for me to put my thought and words down on paper, which I have had a very hard time doing ever.I could also go back at anytime and read over what I wrote and make any changes or corrections that I needed to make. I do believe that being modernized and introduced to the blog has made it a lot easier for me to write.
To me a journal and a blog are simuliar, except with a blog you dont have to deal with the mess of papers and pens. And using the blog I get practice typing, something that I have not had to do much in the past.
I would like to see less writing assignments in English 104, it was hard for me to concentrate on writing an essay, when I had to go back and deal with different reading and writting assignments. I have a hard time doing two things at once, I believe that it might have to do with my old age. Also, not so many Task papers, I will hope and pray that their will only be 3 in English 104, or I can see my brain overloading and exploding.
