Looking back on what I’ve learned thus far in English 165 I wouldn’t be able to fit it into this blog. I’ve loved reading books like the They Say, I Say as well as excerpts from Academic Writing. Honestly I have a love hate relationship with my writing. Some days I think im doing great cranking out at least 3 pages of writing, other days I can barely write a sentence. My writing though I would say has improved a lot, learning lots about research and how to find good credible sources. As well as learning how to right in a new format with APA when i was preciously used to MLA format. I see my strengths in writing being mainly having a distinctive voice in tone. When I look at my writing compared to others I can really see myself and distinctly recognize my writing. I’m good at taking my thoughts and putting it on the page even though sometimes it turns into a ramble. My weakness is definitely citing my sources, all though I have definitely gotten better over the first half of the semester it’s still a work in process. Overcoming this weakness of mine is going to be a long process I can already tell. I rarely have the patience to take the time and learn the formatting. But I believe switching over to the new formatting of APA I will eventually get used to citing my sources that way. I would say my knowledge of Structure Language, References in the four disciplines are very limited. I only know a few different things about the scientific view because most sources related to nursing fall within that. I definitely need to grow my knowledge before the final because I know that it mostly revolves around that and using your writing throughout the semester to back up your information.
