Free Writing

1. The writing process for project two was very different from project one. For me, project two required a lot more organizing to make my argument clear and valid. Also for project one, I was very familiar with what I was writing about and it did not require as much detail and research. Although I am familiar with my topic for project two, it required much more in depth research and took me a much longer time to write about and present two sides of an argument.
2. I think the first draft helped me the most with writing my final draft. This is because during the conference, it made me realize I had to organize my points better so the argument was clear. This helped me edit my paper for my final draft and include sources when needed.
3. Between project one and two, I enjoyed project two a lot better. This is because it allowed me an opportunity to explore any topic I wanted, so I chose one that related to my finance major. This project helped me to learn more about cryptocurrencies, a new form of currency, which was very beneficial for me.

The Bedford Book of Genres

Throughout chapter 1 of “The Bedford Book of Genres,” I learned that there are a variety of ways to improve one’s writing. Several writers tend to get carried away while writing that they forget who their audience is and what message they are trying to deliver. This is when one must ask themselves what their purpose of writing is, do they want to present a narrative/ tell a story, inform, or persuade. After figuring out ones purpose they must choose a genre to be able to shorten their idea and be concise. In order for this to occur one must know the basic qualities and agreed-upon rules about the genre they are composing. Once one makes those decisions they move on to the rhetorical situation which mainly explains the idea. This allows the writer to provide support on their purpose such as saying what is great about it or provide statistics, which will automatically make their writing more interesting for the audience to read, as well as, get t...

Action Plan

For my action plan I will add more pictures to my website and continue to expand on my topic. I also plan to make posters to place around campus to reach outside audiences and use that as my nondigital source. I will continue to work over the weekend to finish the project and best carry out my message on my website.

1) In project two I first did a lot of research to gather ideas and topics that I wanted to include in my essay. Then I went through and proofed it while adding citations and formatting everything. I did ended up doing three drafts rather than two. Project one was a little easier to write in my opinion because it was based off of our observations rather than facts and statistics. 2) I liked taking my first draft and transforming it into a final draft. This is where I organized all my thoughts and made the paper flow nicely. Once I have all my ideas out on the paper I can easily reorganize, cut and add new things. 3) I enjoyed project one more. I think it was lighter in the sense that it was more fun to write about. I liked exploring the different kinds of social adaptions in the films while also comparing time eras.
