Part I:
1) I really felt that the ethos, pathos, and logos work that we did really elevated my writing and was probably the most helpful activity we have don’t this semester. It really helped me actually understand the different parts of writing and when to use which type of style.
2) I have learned that not all writing is just a research type paper or even a summary paper. We have written two different types of papers this year that I have never written before and those being the visual analysis and the argument analysis. I have really expanded my styles of writing this semester.
3) The most challenging part of this course for me has been keeping up with all

    I believe that Mary Matthews is more reliable because while reading you are given a more detailed first person point of view on the lifestyle and society's personality compared to John Taylor Waldorf that seemed to be very vague and distant first impression of Virginia City. While reading Mary Matthews commentary you are able to relate the personal experiences to a certain extent to today's era and connecting on a level that deeply describes Virginia City at that time.…

    For boys who have passed by or through the Middle School this week you will have noticed that the precinct was awash with the colour orange in the form of balloons and banners. The boys in Year 8 will, I hope, be able to tell you that this display of orange was to mark Harmony Day, an event organised by the Department of Immigration and Citizenship.

    One class has really stood out to me and my grade proves it. This professor is helping to show me many different ways I can succeed here at Austin Peay State University. Thus far she has shown me several different ways to help improve my studying skills. The option of joining a study group is the best option I have made. I have joined a study group for my art class. In the beginning I was not doing so well, and then I caught drift of a study group that was being formed and I signed up. A few strengths that I have brought to my study group is that I record each of the lectures so that we can listen to certain parts. When we have the ability to re-listen to the lecture it helps us get a better understanding of what was being taught. I got this grade saving idea from my APSU 1000 instructor, Mrs. Bonnie Hodge, who suggested that we ask our instructors if we are allowed to record their lectures. My next highest grade is a two-way tie between my Art and Psychology class, both ranking in at a B. I have the opportunity to record both of their lectures, and I do so every day. Having the ability to listen to lectures at home has a huge improvement on my grades, because it allows me to listen for important information that I may have accidently missed during class. I feel that I can do better in all of these classes if I spend about another hour per week studying for each class. It is very important to me that I make the best grades possible, because I would like to be accepted into the Nursing Program. This program is very competitive because they only accept about 50 students per year. In order to be accepted into this program I must bring up my English grade to at least a B, which is satisfying to me. English is a subject that I have always struggled with throughout high school. I try to study to the best of my ability and I do well on the test, it’s just writing papers that get me. The only thing I can do is study on how to make my papers flow…

    In my 10th grade English class I was mentored by one of my preparatory teachers named Mr. Zeljak. The overall premise of the criteria for students was to be prepared for the class and show dedication through our rigorous course work. In reference to the level of difficulty of the English class, there was little to no concern when completing assignments, however, the class was sanctioned in having students master the abilities of comprehension and literary analysis. Individuals within the class demonstrated respect and cooperation with other students when commencing in group activities which correlated to my success in the course. The fact that this is my first AP class makes me unaware of what the class will be like in terms of exertion, however, I am also willingly prepared for whatever obstacle that might challenge my current abilities. The reason I applied for this advanced placement class is to challenge my current expertise in literary analysis and comprehension. I would like to apply my newly learned skills to prepare for soon to be future college development.…

    My plan for reading and working on assignments this semester will start with a plan for eliminating distractions. First, I will do most of my reading at home and then other times, in between classes at school. Most of my assignments are done on my personal computer at home so that leads me to the next course of action. Next, I will Make sure to get on D2L every morning and once at night time to check for updates, emails, discussions, and anything else I might have missed during the day. Then, I will make sure I have made note of all due dates for reading, assignments, and discussion boards.

    Some of the most beneficial things that I have learned during this semester of English 250 was based around getting a feel again, for what it is to be an academic based author. I relearned what proper MLA format is supposed to look like, along with how to correctly cite sources without plagiarizing. Along with those examples I learned more of what it means to sound professional in writing, rather than writing as if I were to be having a conversation with someone else. And some of my favorite things that I did while in English 250 had to be the research paper, because I was able to dig deep into my own research and study a topic that was very interesting to me, and in the end compose an essay that I thought was well constructed and more professional…
