What have I learned (Blog 10)

In all honesty, I was not looking forward to this class at the beginning of the semester, but looking back on it now that we are nearing the end, this class was a ton of fun. I went into this class with many premonitions, this was my second time taking English 165 and I just wanted to be done with it but after the first week I can defiantly say I was looking forward to the class, I was even pretty excited to read some of the readings for the classes (Not They say, I say though, not a huge fan of their formatting could just be that it’s online) this was the first time a class had a graphic novel instead of a textbook and i was excited for the change.

I learned a ton both during this class and in my previous taking of English 165, from the types of writing required for the Social Sciences, the Humanities, and the applied fields to how to write an annotated Bibliography, Information that will be invaluable as I continue my studies here at Longwood University. This class has also helped me grow as a writer, while I will probably still avoid righting if given the option (sorry I am a reader not a writer) in the cases where writing is  a requirement I like to think I am better at it, through out the course of this class I’ve learned tactics to keep myself engaged in the writing process, how to properly edit my paper, to give myself time to write and review my paper and many more useful tips and tricks when writing. I even got to use some of those tricks recently when I had to write a short story for my Speculative Literature class.

all in all, this has been an amazing class to have this semester and I am glad to have had the opportunity to have it.
