Dear Students

If I Knew Then What I Know Now...
The amount of work we had to do was less than we expected. We wish we had used templates before we took this class. We recommend reviewing They Say/I Say before class begins. We wish we had more sharing and correction time on our freewriting. We began taking this class believing we didn't have much more to learn but was surprised to find there is always more to learn.

I Learned...
We have learned to write argumentative papers, how to cite our sources as well as how to use templates. We also learned how to use credible sources. We came to realize that in order to be a writer one must read and write more often. That even for professional writers it takes time and editing. In doing research we found that we need to be more open-minded and less judgemental. We learned how to balance our time between classes and other responsibilities. Our hope for next semester students is that they accomplish all their goals that they set as a writers. We hope that that students will have the opportunity to do more writing. We also hope the students enjoy going through the analysis of the short stories we read for class.
