    ...ine and the sample lab report that my instructor gave me led me to conclude that science classes view writing as more of a tool for education than a tool for creativity. Since my Biology Lab instructor is representative of the science based discipline, then I can comfortably indicate that this discipline views writing as logos based, professional, structured, and with purpose, all in order to educate the masses. Writing has different views in each respective discipline, which shows diversity in each discipline since they may use it differently, such as how science based courses use writing to teach the reader about the experiment and the results whereas in a history based course they may use it to research a point in history and present their findings. Knowing this, I believe that no matter what discipline you write for, there will always be a tie back to education.

  • Reflection On English Composition 2

    1304 Words  | 3 Pages

    English Composition II has unexpectedly improved my writing into an academic level. As I studied various English reading and writing courses, this class “English Composition II” did not immediately caught my eye. However as I researched about the concepts of this class, the decision to make was not so difficult since I was lacking in critical thinking and the interpretation of works. Also as a Business Major, it made sense that the subject of English would be of interest to me and as a career requirement. During the first weeks, I thought that I would be fully prepared for this course after taking an accelerated course in English during the spring semester. However, after attending class for about a month, I certainly did not expect to learn an entirely new process of writing

  • Dilemmas in Assessment of Student Writing

    Being a new teacher of English, I find the assessment of compositions to be a concept I question and struggle with on a regular basis. Having consulted several colleagues, mentors, administrators, and fellow graduate students, I have come to the conclusion that there is no easy answer to this tedious yet ever important question. While there are many inlets and outlets to this dilemma, for the sake of time I will touch on only three. While all three are very different in terms of concepts, rituals, and conducts, they all come together to one common goal - helping students express themselves in terms of writing.

  • Reflection In College Writing

    977 Words  | 2 Pages

    For me, being a college writer means writing well-organized essays that readers enjoy reading. Being a well rounded writer was also important. Each unit in this class challenged me to write in a well-organized, concise way. During each unit, we conducted some sort of revision activity where I was exposed to other students’ writing. As I read their work, I picked up on their use of transition words and separation of paragraphs to make the essay flow. Naturally, I began implementing more transition words in my own work and learned the appropriate ways to split paragraphs. The structure of the class was key to the organization of my ideas which was crucial to the development of my essay. During the third unit of this class, we were asked to identify an issue on campus, conduct research on the issue, and finally propose a solution to correct the issue. At first, it was difficult to get my ideas down and figure out what it was I would research. What I learned in class allowed me to first identify the issue I would research, write a rough draft, and hear what others had written before the final paper was due. This helped me to identify the main points, brainstorm and figure out what additional research I would need to find to support my argument. Being able to organize my thoughts from the beginning made writing the paper a much easier process. This course has helped me to grow as a writer and make

  • College English Changes People

    Writing is so much easier when you don’t have a ridiculous amount of guidelines you have to follow. With literary freedom, we are able to express ourselves more than if we have to follow a specific set of rules for every thing we write. This is one downfall for high school English. We have to order our papers in a specific sequence while writing about a topic that is chosen for us. This English composition class changed all of that. We were able to write about anything that related to the given type of essay, which greatly improved our ability to fully immerse ourselves into every paper. This greatly affected my writing thoughts about writing; they changed from hating to write for school to actually enjoying it because I was able to find new things about my self while deepening my knowledge for writing.

  • Standard Written English Essay

    1099 Words  | 3 Pages

    Too many bright students merge into higher educations, astonished by the “bad grades” they receive. It’s also not until their first couple of bad grades that they realize that the cause is very much likely to be embedded in their dialect of writings. Similar to Richard Rodriguez ideas, David Foster Wallace provided a significant discussion about Standard written English as well as the teaching of various English varieties. In ‘Authority and American Usage’, Wallace managed to explore most of the different dialects in English. This is similar to Rodriguez’ ‘Hunger of Memory’ where his stance against Bilingualism is as consistent as his favor for the necessity of assimilation (Lawtoo 221). In this paper, an identification of public dialects

  • English Vinglish Essay

    1006 Words  | 3 Pages

    Everyone is a part of a community. Most people are a part of multiple communities. A community is a group of people that have a commonality. Sometimes it is based on where you live, hobbies, goals, etc. I believe that communities are created unconsciously and are connected to someone’s identity, especially when a person is considered a part of multiple communities. Sometimes, a person may connect very well with their community. Sometimes, a person may feel very distant from their community. In the movie, “English Vinglish”, the main character, Sashi, shows examples on how communities are created through commonalities, and the acculturation theory. Sashi was a part of multiple communities. A few communities included her, her Daughter’s school,

    Coming from a Spanish speaking household having to learn a new language can always be difficult. While, I was a child learning a second language was difficult. It was difficult for me to put words to use in the correct way. And use terms that make sense with one another term. It was difficult for me because some Spanish words sound the same as English words, and while learning I wanted to translate everything the way I say it in Spanish to English. For example, in Spanish “helo” means ice, but if you say it out loud it sounds like “yellow”. Little things like that will be a big issue to me. I have to put up with many looks from others and hear all sorts of criticism around me. Learning a new language at a young age was a struggle with reading
