Freewriting

Haley Ketchum

1. How was my writing process for project two different from project one?

In project two, I was constantly going back and forth through different research articles to gather information. With project one, is was pretty much me just writing about a topic with not a lot of outside information needed. On project two, it was my own ideas mixed with research.

2. Which draft helped the most? What made it more helpful?

I liked making the annotated bibliography then writing my first draft. The annotated bibliography made everything so much easier, as my paper was pretty much just written. I wrote my own ideas in the first draft but for the resaerch I mainly just added what I already had written for the annotated bibliography.

3. Between project one and two, which did I enjoy the most? Why?

I enjoyed project one more because I got to write about my two favorite movies. I liked project two, but project one was just more enjoyable and easier to write.

    I agree, I liked project one so much more because it was more opinion based as opposed to scientific research.

    I agreee that the annotated bibliography was helpful by laying out a sort of outline of your argument. However, project 2 was still more tedious in terms of extra background research and was less analytical.

    I agree that writing the annotated bibliography made writing the paper easier because you have already read all of the sources and have a brief summary of each of them.

"Really Responding"

Sophia Fundora  The text "Really Responding" surprised me in the way that Richard Straub claimed that putting forth maximum effort when peer reviewing someone else's paper could make you an even better writer. He emphasizes the importance of writing comments within the margarines and summarizing the paper in your own words. I believe that this strategy mentioned could be very helpful not only for the person who's paper your reviewing but for yourself as well. It helps the writer see how the audience would perceive their paper and what they need to work on. It helps the reviewer by enhancing their comprehension skills and applying their own comments on their own paper as well. I also believe his strategy of taking the stage of drafting in to consideration when peer reviewing could be very helpful. For example, Straub mentions how if it's a first or rough draft, try not to deal with all the editing at once but instead focus on the large picture like the focus, con...

Picture Rhetoric

This ticket is advertising an upcoming event that the sorority, Delta Gamma, is holding. It is rhetorically effective because it is colorful and completely delivers the idea that there will be a variety of different desserts at the event. The candies work very closely with theme and helps students to easily look at the ticket and be able to understand what the event is. I think that the size is very effective for this advertising ticket. I also think it very well informs the public because it states the time the event will be held and the date, as well as the address.

Peaceful Protest during the Vietnam War- Sophia Fundora, Alison McGrath

Peaceful Protest during the Vietnam War Throughout the sixties, antiwar protests sprung up across America due to the United States' controversial involvement in the Vietnam War. The Vietnam War Protests are marked as being some of the first major anti-war protests in the States. In today's society, there are various non-violent anti-war protests around the globe. These protests have made monumental differences around the world, as put by Julia Bacha, "The [Budrus] residents, after ten months of peaceful resistance, convinced the Israeli government to move the root of the barrier off their lands and to the green line, which is internationally recognized boundary between Israel and the Palestinian territories," (1). Though some may claim that the Vietnam protests had no effect and the only reason we pulled out of the war was due to how costly it was, this protest is pivotal in setting an example for future peaceful protestors throughout history.
