Week 15 - Posting 15! Last posting*

There is much I have learned about myself and my writing style as I have been in this English class. I've learned to take the time to sit down and write my drafts, rather than just do them the night before. By learning this trait, I have become more organized in my writing process and feel great about the papers I am writing. I also believe that I've gotten much better and citing the sources in my paper. I know that they're correct every time I site them, and that's a good feeling. However, I believe that there's stuff I have struggled with too. For example, I have become a little too biased in my paper which is exactly what we're not supposed to be doing. It's hard not to when you are so passionate about your subculture and wanting to persuade people to view it the same ways you do. So, that's been a lot of my biggest struggle. I like the way the class was run this year, I think that it was very effective and the website Mr. DiSarro created really helped me know exactly what was required for each assignment. The only assignment I was ever really confused on was the research proposal. Therefore, I find it important to research this topic a little further in the classroom. Also, the conferences are very beneficial and are something that should definitely be continued throughout the duration of the semester. All in all, I believe that the class was run very smoothly and there's nothing I would change about it. Having to write a 12 to 15 page paper at the beginning of the year was a complete weight on my shoulders, however throughout the course of this classroom's assignments it has gotten much easier and I'm so thankful for that!
