sorry for the wait...... Class Blog(11/16/12)


Today in class we reviewed everything we have learned so far in this course.  Throughout this class we have learned a lot, some more than others. However, together we all have gotten something out of taking this class.                                       

As the semester starts to come to an end it is go to know that we all had something to take from the time we spent together. We have grown a lot as students in these last few months and I do not know, but I have grown as a person as well.
 
  On another note, today Heather introduced the books of postsecrets to those who did not know of them.
  She brought in two books one for older people and one that seemed to more so for teenagers. She showed the class pictures for us to interrupt and figure out the intended audience.
 
After we looked at the books, it was our turn to make our own postsecret. Heather supplied the class with postcards, magazines, books and glue to use for their postsecret.  We had to share a secret using the postcard, it did not matter what it was. After we finished our postcard we had to blog about. Once that was done we were allowed to leave class was over the day.

My Favorite Peer Review Technique

One peer review that I feel works well for me is the one we did today. I like the one on ones because you get to see and understand what the reader is thinking. finding out how my peers feel about my writing is helpful since they are the real audience of my paper. Also I like the suggestions that are given it helps me formulate  my own new ideas. I use them as a guide to keep me focused and on the right tract.
