Reflection on project 2

1)  My writing process was different, because for project two I researched a lot more. I spent a lot of time researching to find facts to back up my arguments, and I also cared about this assignment more. It was easier to do, because I cared a good deal about what I was writing about.

2) The first draft helped me the most, because after my conference I understood what I needed to say, and the mistakes I made. It helped me a lot when writing my second draft, because i had a better understanding of the assignment.

3) I personally enjoyed project two more than project one, because I was writing about something that is important to me. This gave me the drive to work harder on this project. Project one was harder to understand, but project two you can have a clear argument.

  2. Alison, I agree that project two was personally much more enjoyable because you got to dig deep when it came to issues you truly cared about. I agree that the first draft conference was the most helpful part of the process because It gave very useful insight and assistance.

This text showed me how us as readers perceive a certain font or text and how it can influence our mood and how we feel about a certain reading. It also showed me how elaborate texts can draw us into something such as a poster or a title page of a book. Also how very bland fonts do not appeal to many readers as they might think of it as boring and plain. This gives me a lot to think about as project three comes closer. It makes me think of the reader and what type of fonts might draw them into my website, social media page, etc. This text was very helpful for this type of assignment.

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...
