2R

Throughout this week, as a class we are learning bow to structure our papers correctly. After going through many English classes in my life, I have learned a lot of different styles and structures in which to write. The normal five paragraphs essay just doesn’t seem to cut it in college. Here, I feel as though professors want more than that. They want to know why you are choosing to write, what point you take on an argument, and where you got your information from. I think that after discussing the ways I can elaborate my writing, I am going to improve on the quality ad length of my writing. Also I was given the “writing process”. I have never learned nor heard of this before. I believe this process will too help me strengthen my papers. I have learned that when in the process of writing a piece, you can have many drafts. Normally, I am used to one draft that is looked over for grammatical errors and then a final draft from there. I have never had the chance to peer review, and I think that will help me excel. This weeks class has also helped me understand the difference between the topic of a paper and your thesis.
