Alec G - Web Writing Class

The key strengthening factor in each question will be the example used alongside it. In the written portion, anything can be typed, but the example shows the application and credibility of the skill. I plan to revisit all of my previous posts and pick out the example for each answer first to build a strong structure around the application. In that sense, all of the explanations will be directly linked and show a strong piece of evidence accordingly.

When it comes to the way I learn, I often have difficulties understanding things the first time they are explained to me. My brain functions differently from those around me, and often it can be a frustrating experience to attempt to keep up with the pace. I've also found that despite this, I tend to approach ideas in new, creative ways that those around me wouldn't have thought of before. So I suppose my favorite part of learning is learning how to incorporate creativity into any activity.

I would say the strongest part of my writing process is the structure I use throughout each of my papers. I have a very refined style that follows a particular structure in all types of writing I do. Due to this, I've been told that I sound credible in my writing and like I know what I'm talking about, which is the ultimate goal of any writing assignment. I know that I can take a strong stance and communicate my point effectively.

Is this enough information on each of the creators for the background section, or should I dive deeper into their careers? I want to make sure the audience has the full context of what is happening, but not veer too far off topic.

My writing process still requires some building upon and the ability to work over an extended period of time. I still find myself writing in short spurts, spitting out all the information at once, which offers little time for feedback and overall development. Outside of college, this will mean that for each project I approach, I will need to do one of two things: Apply to projects that fit alongside my writing all at once approach or adapt the process to the needs of a client. Understanding how I function can help me to adapt what I am doing to fit the project at hand.

Completing drafts along a scheduled timeline is more beneficial to the audience as a whole and to the quality of the paper. Having multiple stages in which feedback can be offered helps to improve the overall quality of the work being produced, and your viewers can specify exactly what they are looking for and where understanding is lacking. This isn't a luxury necessarily offered frequently, but understanding how it is best to seize that opportunity can help increase a writer's quality.

Beyond this class, a good revisionary process is beneficial for any assignment. Having a strong judgement and flexibility to change what is needed can help with future assignments and papers an individual will write, not only in college, but continuing through their lives. Having a solidified approach can help to increase credibility, cleanliness, and understanding from your audience when consuming pieces of writing you have created.

I'm working on furthering my technical writing style. Including sections that regard terminology used, so I don't have to spend time explaining language within the text and directly referencing images as they are used to help maintain a reader's train of thought. When reading my writing, I want it to have elements of scientific papers to enhance my credibility while also keeping a rhetorical whimsy to make the audience feel less like they are being lectured to.
