freewrite 3/27

1. The writing process was different in the sense that project two was a research paper and required background information that I could not provide myself. It required sources in which I got my information and a bibliography of where I got the sources and information from. Project 1 was mostly opinion based.

2. It thought that it was helpful to get the first draft done first because then I have most of my paper done so I can just edit and add little things when it was time to submit the final project.

3. I enjoyed project two more because I talked about my passion and things that I like to do and things that concern me personally (fishing and ocean stuff).

  1. I agree that writing a first draft first helps a lot because then you can just fix mistakes here and there.

  3. I also like the part of the writing process better once I already have a draft written. I agree that it requires less work, because to me the hard part is getting your idea for a good, successful paper.

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.
