Thus far, we’ve been focusing on the graphic novel Freshman, and we’ll return to it one last time before the semester ends. Now, however, is time to start thinking about what you’ve learned thus far in Engl 165 and what are still your biggest concerns with completing the semester successfully.

To accomplish this, look back on the chapters that your’ve read in both the Understanding Rhetoric and the They Say, I Say books, as well as the chapters we’ve completed in Academic Writing. Consider the following questions to guide your response, or go out on your own:

1. What have been your favorite chapters thus far and why? (Give details)
2. What have been your least favorite chapters thus far and why? (Give details)
3. How do you honestly feel about your own writing?
4. Where do you see your strengths?
5. Where do you see your weaknesses?
6. What kind of plan to you have to overcome your perceived weaknesses?
7. What do you know thus far about Structure, Language, and References in the four disciplines that constitute academic writing.
