Reflection Officially Reflected.

I will now reflect the following...
I thought I did well on my OpEd. I enjoyed the topic. I thought that I chose a fitting topic for both my style and tone of writing. It was very sarcastic which I enjoyed, but also instructive. I think I have finally discovered my voice in writing which is quite enjoyable if I do so say myself. I like the easy, nonchalant approach, where I am able to write how I would have told the story in real life. It felt personable and easy going.

I enjoyed this assignment a lot. It seemed like it was very beneficial in my finding a style of writing that I enjoyed and that came naturally.

I really liked how the OpEd topic was optional. For some reason in rush-writes, topic essays, etc. I always do better if I get to chose the topic myself. I find no difficulty in choosing an approach or finding an argument, because I get to decide rather than someone else making the decision for me.

I think that the peer-review was helpful and instructive, but also the one-on-one meeting with you Prof. Husberg helped quite a bit. It's always nice to know what the Instructor is both expecting and looking for in an assigned paper.

The writing center did not prove to be that helpful for me, but I am sure that was because of my topic choice and the little structure demanded in this particular assignment. I'm sure in a more demanding paper, such as an MLA formatted or APA paper, the writing center would have better aided the cause.

Well that is all: my reflection has officially been reflected.

Tata.

  1. I feel like I am the exact opposite when it comes to topics. I swear I choose the worst ones when it's up to me, but that's great that it works for you!

  2. Ahh... the writing center. It's true your paper did flow very nicely. It felt more like a conversation rather than boring paper so bravo!
