Rough Draft Reflection
When I received my test , I would run fast through the pages like a lightning bolt and go all the way towards the end of the booklet to see what the prompts for the essay were. I was one of those students who would always raise their hands for extra paper so that I could write a rough draft first and then write my story on the dark black lines of the final draft paper. As cliche as it sounds, I wanted my paper to be –PERFECT. The writing TAKS was one of my strengths and it boosted my confidence on my ability to write and gave me a chance to improve on my writing

    The AVID program has helped me in many ways, but the thing it helped me the most with was actually understanding the importance of going to college and it has taught me how to get there. The process of going to college can be very confusing especially for a first generation college student like me. AVID has been extremely helpful with answering all my questions I have about college. It has also kept me on track with the things I need to need get done during my senior year in order to be able to attend college; for example, college application deadlines, scholarship deadlines, and taking tests (placement, SAT ACT).…

    I have learned that revising your writing makes it way better than before. You find your mistakes and realize you can replace words such as “bring to” to a different high vocabulary word such as “cease”. I know now that there is no way to make your paper perfect. There will always be a word, words, or sentence you could change.In addition, I’ve gained a better understanding on passive and active sentences. Once I was done writing my paper, and began to reread it I found some passive sentences. All I did was revise the sentence which helped my writing flow better. Initially, I read the first paper I wrote for the Quarter 1 Writing Assessment and I noticed that I didn’t follow the directions completely. As I read on, there were many simple sentences and not many transitional words.…

    During the past week, we have learned about ourselves when it comes to writing and reading and strategies in order to make our writing better and stronger. During the class activity, I learned why I wouldn't consider myself a great writer or a strong writer. In order to be a great writer, you must go through each process to make sure your reflection paper or essay strong. I already knew about the 5 essay structure process, but I never did each step.

    During the teaching, I used open ended questions and questions and answers. I also gave the patient 4 handouts and highlighted the important discussion points and topics I discussed. I estimated that the process would take between 15-30 minutes depending on if the patient and her daughter had any questions. The whole process took about 20 minutes. I believe that the handouts were the best way to achieve my goals. The daughter was very happy that I had them, and was especially appreciative of the pictures that were in the handouts. I began by assessing the patients learning needs, learning deficits, factors affecting learning, and the learning environment. I turned the television down, but the patient would not let me turn it off. After my…

    Another blow to character education was the postmodern thinking. Postmodern theory is based on the idea that reality is not reflected in human understanding. Reality is constructed as the person tries to interpret their own reality, (Aylesworth, 2012). According to Wilhelm and Firmin, the “backlash of postmodernism asserts that Christian virtue and absolute truth cannot be held as exclusive morality,” (Welhelm & Welhelm, 2008, p.190). Teachers became concerned with forcing any absolutes or morality. In the absence of absolutes or morality…

    My writing style in high school was formal and followed a strict template for writing research papers and all other written assignments. Many of my teachers then left no wiggle room for creative detail nor allowed us to use “I” in any of our papers. They gave my peers and I such highly specific prompts that each of our body paragraphs was almost identical. As a result to the specific prompts, I would typically score 87-95 percent…

    My biggest accomplishment in AP English was strengthening my essay writing skills. As I practiced analyzing passages and writing essays in only forty minutes, I watched my writing turn from being competent to more eloquent. Initially, this shortened time frame posed a significant challenge for me.

    Before transferring to Georgian Court University, I had already attended two other colleges. I lived in a dorm my freshmen year at Ramapo and decided that was not for me. After leaving Ramapo, I decided to take a few semesters at Brookdale Community College in order to fulfill some requirements while deciding where exactly was the right place for myself to continue with my education. After searching through many brochures and getting first hand details about schools from people I am acquainted with, I was overcome with joy when I found Georgian Court. Since I am double majoring in both English and Education, it is hard to find schools that offer the two as a pair as well as offer the special endorsement for teaching students with disabilities. Georgian Court is also one of the top teaching schools, with a very high rate of job placement after graduation, which was another thing that captivated me. The economy is very unpredictable at this point in time and it is only plausible to choose the very best school to go to that is well known for the extraordinary practices in the field of study you want to pursue. Here at Georgian Court I have found everything I have been looking for.…

    Writing has always been a reluctant process for me. When planning to write a paper I always write down all my ideas I want to talk about and my professor for advice too. I specifically think I did very well on paper one. I usually do not enjoy writing when it turns into an essay about a subject I have to pretend to care about, but I really did enjoyed writing paper one. From the six weeks of taking this class, I do feel like my writing has improved by becoming more structured, defined and straight forward.…
