Writing 150 has been a great class for me. I didn't expect much out of the class when the semester started, but it has turned out to be one of my favorite classes. I have learned several useful skills that will definitely help me throughout the rest of my life with different types of writing I will have to do. I think this class has helped me to be more well-rounded in my writing; we have learned how to write in several different genres.
Also, this class has helped me learn how to organize my papers and write strong thesis statements. I have learned how to make solid outlines of my papers, do effective research, and include solid analysis in the body paragraphs. These are skills that I will definitely use for almost every single paper I ever write.
Another thing I liked about this class was that it was fun. We wrote a response paper about an exhibit in the Museum of Art, and we also had the opportunity to do a Restaurant Review. These were fun assignments that allowed me to make friends in the class and enjoy the writing experience. Also, with the research paper, I was able to learn TONS of new things about adoption, which is something very relevant and personal to me. All of the assignments we had helped me in different ways, and interested me in unique ways. I didn't keep up very consistently with this blog, but what we have done in class has inspired me to do another blog (not school related) of my own! I enjoy keeping up with it and writing about many different topics. For these reasons, I would definitely say that this class has helped me to branch out into new things and be a better writer. Good stuff!
