Blog questions

Julie Thayer
1) My writing process for project two was different from project one in many ways. First, project two required a lot more research, this contributed to my creation of an annotated bibliography. Project two also made me be more organized when setting up my paper. I feel like this time my writing process was a lot easier for me and therefore made my paper stronger.
2) The creation of the first draft from my annotated bibliography I feel benefited my paper the most. This was because it made it really easy for me to format my paper and organize it in the more effective way. It was basically an outline for the rest of my paper.
3)I enjoyed project 2 the most because I was passionate about my topic. This made it easy for me to find research and even give my own opinion within my paper. This paper was very easy to create because I had prior knowledge and was inspired to find more information. It was enjoyable for me to write.

    I agree that project two made it easier to be organized, and therefore was easier to write. I also agree that project two was easier to write because we were more interested in our topics.

Action Plan

Jacqueline Kulle The peer review helped me a lot for my action plan and gave me more ideas and insight on what I should do. I was struggling with what I should do for my subversion, and I got the idea to do a meme or a comic strip. I have to finish and touch up my website, finish my nondigital picture, finish my comic strip, and get more participants for my survey. The peer review was beneficial and now I have a much clear idea on how I should do this project.

Subversion and Redemption. Rachel Klahm

1. Some subversion examples the author mentions are Max in  Where the Wild Things Are and Don Quixote. Other movies that are subversions are  A Haunted House and WALL-E. WALL-E is a subversion because it's a light hearted cartoon with a much deeper meaning. Humans have abused planet Earth with industrial corporations to the point where they must abandon it until robots have cleaned it up. The moral lesson is that technology and industry are bad and if we continue on the path we're on, the Earth will turn into the trash ridden world that is in WALL-E. Despite this, the film is still pro-human. Compared to the usual "humans are bad for nature" lesson, WALL-E  actually shows why Earth needs humans. The movie has no real dialogue from anyone, just robot sounds and intercom voices on the ship that the humans live on. When WALL-E   meets Eva they ask each other "Directive?" which basically means "What's your purpose?" Each robot in the film has a dir...

Mary Katherine Rankey annoying ways

The reading "Annoying Ways" is all about the annoying ways people choose to use their sources and the things they can do to change those quirks. The reading discussed the proper ways to cite sources and to cite quotes that the writer uses in their paper. The reading also discusses the importance of where to put a quote. Often times I find the perfect quote, but put it in an awkward place in the sentence, which not only makes my work more sloppy, but also takes away from the message of the quote. The author uses a lot of analogies in his writing to explain how the annoying ways of improper uses of quotes can mimic annoying things in real life. The reading taught me ways I can fix my writing style to fix those annoying habits I have.
