Writing Reflection

Ideas and Content

My essay includes appropriate content like my main character Antony and how he seeks revenge from the conspirators. I think i did better in my Julius Caesar essay than my Santiago essay. My essay may be shorter than my Santiago essay but i have improved on my writing and was able to get to the main point without carrying it out to long. I think that doing this essay was easier, because we had more practice. After all the class discussions i was able to get a better idea of the character, and put my thought on the paper more easily.

Organization

My introduction and conclusion are clearly relating to the topic, they all link to the thesis. I think i can improve my writing by being more direct in my topic sentences. Next time while writing i am going to try be more direct with my sentences.

Personal Growth

I personally think that i have improved dramatically between my Alchemist essay and my Julius Caesar. In the Alchemist essay you can see that i do not get to the point fast enough and that i am continuing to much and ending up repeating myself. In my Julius Caesar essay i got to the point faster and didn't repeat myself as much as the Alchemist essay.

SLR Reflection

I think i Learn Enthusiastically because i worked hard on this essay and was able to get my thoughts easily on to the paper with no hesitations. The discussions helped me, and by reading my notes before the essay i was able to write a well constructed essay which i am very proud of.

Collage Reflection

Think Creatively

There are quite a few of aspects in my collage that are creative. But, I'll only explain one specific example. Such as my 6-word memoir, which explains the lifestyles of the lost boys. Who have been unfortunately in the sudan war. These poor boys had to live with many problems everyday.

Reason Critically

The words I used definitely give detail in my collage especially, in the pictures given. These pictures explain what the boys are going through. Throughout their journey and the arrival, to safety. When people view my collage, they will see the horrific images, of their escape. The pictures show the gruesome hardships of these lost boys.

Communicate Effectively

These pictures on my collage show the difficulties and danger these people are facing. This creates awareness by seeing these difficulties and wanting to act. Bringing food and any other supplies which can help to give them hope and to be able to carry on.

Live Ethically

My collage creates awareness to all viewers. To bring effect of the pictures on the audience's eyes. My pictures display to me a scary lifestyle. But their determinations arrays the surplus of hope. They have perseverance to never give up on their country. My collage shows the difficulties of their childhood and adulthood. It will create an impact upon the audience to act upon obstacles given to these lost boys.
