What I liked about the course is that we went over the whole writing process and broke it down into subjects such as pre-writing process, CRAP, Peer-reviewing, etc.Â
One thing that could be improved is going over grammar more. Almost every year I took english, we would go over grammar and I can not remember if we did in this class. But I would suggested that we went over it in detail even if it is just for one class period.

I can translate my writing process to other work by using the same strategies that I have used in this class. I have already begun transferring the writing process that I have built in the classroom, to other assignments. For example, I had a lab report for Biology and I struggled with how to start it. Then I thought back to the tactics that I use in English, and I just started to write to get something on the page. My favorite and most useful tactic I have gained from this class is the âshitty rough draft techniqueâ. Whenever I have a writing assignment I start with an awful rough draft and keep revising till it is exceptional. A week ago I began my lab report, and at first it was extremely wordy and poorly written. However, after 3 revisions it was in tip top shape. Just simply having a starting point can make the writing process go a long way.
I have experienced the same example but with a different class. These have proven to be the stepping stones for writing. And I love the âShitty rough draft techniqueâ as well!

âHow can I translate my writing process to other work outside of this classroom?â
I have already used the new and improved writing process outside of class. I have a few classes that require me to write essays and I have found that by using this process, it makes writing the essays easier. For example, my UNI class has assignments called journals and readings. I have to write a minimum of two pages about an article we have read or about a prompt given to us. Using an outline has been helpful and puts less stress and more organization on the essay. And in my HIS class, I have weekly essays to write about the unit we are learning about that week, so again, the outline does its job and helps organizes the essay.

The infographic was probably the most challenging. In essays, itâs easy to further explain your point because you have more room to do so. In an infographic, you have limited space, but you still need to have an effective argument. This was challenging to do. It did teach me that you donât always need a lot of words to prove a point.
My writing process has improved entirely. I used to not write several drafts before submitting a final one. Now, I have a prewriting process. I write a first draft and make revisions after, instead of writing one draft and revising as I write.
I agree that the infographic was the hardest. You have to use more than just words to persuade the audience. I also use to have no pre-writing process!

When I created my rough draft for my infographic, my primary claim was that robotic nurses have a very ling list of benefits for the healthcare industry but there would still be many issues involved with integrating these robots into our hospitals and other medical centers. I then went on to include a few pros and cons including how robots would be able to reduce the nurse shortages around the world but they also lack a reliable set of ethics which would mean highly uncertain interactions with humans. My goal was to expand upon the article I read a few weeks ago, Here Come the Robot Nurses, by remaining unbiased in my evidence but still trying to make an argument.Â
I agree with your primary claim and I like how you connected your claim to your original article. And using the pros and cons to support your primary claim which is a great way to show your information/data.

Primary Claim: Contact Tracing will not solve Covid-19 fully.
Supporting Claims:
-False negatives could be reported.
-Information/Data could be misused.
The author of the original article showed both sides of the argument and made their claim neutral. I take the points from the one side of the argument and expand on it with more information.Â

The most challenging assignment I have done this semester was probably the rhetorical essay. I have never written one even in high school so learning this new writing style was eye-opening and different. I had to re-write it because of my confusion but that was okay. Due to the mistakes I have made with my writing in all of our assignments, I feel as though my writing has gotten better. It is more start to the point instead of filing it with pointless words. As I said in the beginning, the rhetorical essay helped me learn a new writing style and I think it helped improved my writing. Â

It is important to evaluate a source because if one does not check over the information displayed, they could be using false or incorrect information. Which in turn influences a person to learn false information which can be detrimental. One of the most important things I have learned is that bias is inevitable in research even if charts, or infographics. However, it is crucial to use the least biased source that still contains factual information.
The knowledge I gained from the reading will allow me to note when there is slight bias and also understand when there is too much bias making the source inadequate.
The articles I will now look for will be factual informative articles that do not take a stance for one side or the other. Using unbiased articles will allow me to use relevant and true information.
I agree with your first statement âIt is important to evaluate a source because if one does not check over the information displayed, they could be using false or incorrect informationâ as you are correct about the information being used could be false.Â
I think the readings we did in class helped with gaining this knowledge to learn for the better of our writing and for the future.

Evaluating sources is important because the audience is trusting your sources to be correct and factual. You have to look in and do some research on the sources you are using for any type of writing you may have to do. Is this source biased, Has this source been fact checked before and if so, has it failed a fact check? These are the questions that come to mind when talking about evaluating sources.Â
When reading an article, I may look into the websites by using the MediaFactCheck website we used in class to look over the sources of the article and the publisher themself. This is to see if it is an article I can trust to inform me and educate me on this topic.Â

The main argument in âDonât Blame the Eaterâ is that the health effects that fast food has on its consumers is the responsibility of the fast-food chains themselves. The key evidence was the use of statistics that backed the idea that the overall health of the public has worsened since the increase consumption of fast-food. There was also evidence used to show how restaurants donât always show the accurate nutrition facts for their food/ products. I think there could be additional evidence about how health has been impacted. The evidence included in the text already was about the increase of Type 2 diabetes and cases that were obesity related. I thought it was interesting that the writer talked about how deceiving nutrition labels can be and how some places donât always provide the whole truth. I think a counterargument for the increase in diabetes cases due to obesity or type 2 diabetes could be from additional or other factors, not just the over consumption of fast-food.
The key evidence in this article seems to have personal and logical meaning! I think the counterargument would bring new perspective to the thesis statement.Â

My thesis for my project 2 essay was Contact Tracing helping the Public Health. Sidney Fussell talked about how the citizens could feel unsafe and unprotected under the Fourth Amendment with the government holding their information. Then talked about how it could benefit the country. Each part of their argument could be explored further. This article had a counter argument in the writing itself which was different.Â

I found this image off of google. The audience for this infographic would be environmental activists and just ordinary citizens who need to be aware of what is going on with the earth we live on. The contrast of colors is important because the orange really stands out from the green. The font is very tiny and a lot to take in so that is not the best. This image employs rhetorical appeals such as logos by using facts throughout the image. This infographic reflects the understanding the effects of global warming and the ways of prevention.Â
This image is very entertaining to look at. The contrast between all the different topics shown in the image is clear. By using the different font and colors to identify the subjects, it makes it easier to understand.

I found this infographic on the web, searching for covid-19 surveillance infographics. This explains the adapting of Third-Party Monitoring amongst the covid-19 times. The purpose is to educate the public on the changes on monitoring during the virus.
The rhetorical appeals shown in this image is mostly logos and ethos. It uses logos in explaining some effects that covid-19 has had on the monitoring. Ethos is used by giving specific examples and uses that to show credit.
As for the CRAP, the image is easy to read and interesting to look at. Using the different fonts for the heading and the body paragraphs easily separates the image. However, I can see room for improvement by using different font in the title of the image.
As I said in the last paragraph, the setup of the infographic is easy to understand and read. It is simple wording that makes it almost readable for anyone.
Quotations
As one of the pioneers in the field of social robotics, Lucy Suchman, noted, âRobots work best when the world has been arranged in the way that they need it to be arranged.â
The way the author introduced a quote into their own writing was super simple and yet super efficient. The structure is very notable as the author informs the reader of any background information, introduces the quote, and then explains why the quote is relevant. The author was super successful in integrating this quote because she includes credibility to support the quote even further.Â
I think the simple way of introducing a quote is the easiest and efficient way to connect with the audience. It seems like you really understood the authors quote and their way of writing.Â

In my article, âHow Surveillance Could Save Lives Amid Public Health Crisisâ, Sidney Fussell includes a few quotes from politicians and other creditable sources about the issue of contact tracking. One of the quotes that stuck out most was âWhat's really important is for the government to be really clear in articulating what specific public health goals it's seeking to accomplish,â. She had given the credit to the speaker and spoke about her credibility. She uses these quotes to show both sides of the argument.

The most helpful suggestions are the suggestions that improve grammatical errors, make my paper flow better, and allow me to more successfully get my point across. The least helpful suggestions are when the person revising says it is wrong but doesnât say why or how to fix it. I like the peer review process because a second set of eyes looking at your paper allows you to get a new perspective on how to improve.Â
I agree with having the helpful suggestions from others about grammar especially since I am not to good at grammar. The peer-reviewing process helps out in learning different ways to see your work differently.

Back in freshman and sophomore year of high school, my teachers would make us do peer-review for our papers. Having someone else catching mistakes that you would not have seen if helpful obviously but the one thing that made a huge difference is having the personâs opinion on the structure and flow of the essay.Â
I did not like that someone would read my paper and potentially not like it. The judgement I would face if someone who did not accept that way I had written the essay. As I have gotten older, it has been easier to ignore that voice in my head.
