Wow what have I learned in this class. I have to say I have learned a lot. The formats taught have been great overall. I learned how to write more out of something really short. To be able to do this I used the old-new information format. This was and is becoming really essential when writing my papers. Mostly since I have learned that most teachers are page counters and when they say write four pages they mean it.
There are times when it can be written in about just two pages but the teachers want it in four pages. With the old-new information format it is so easy to get to four pages. It just happens automatically when you have really learned it. Yea it takes a while to get the hang of it but it is not as hard as some people many think it is. Although this varies from person to person.
Another thing I have learned to do is how to do the TS/CD. This has been one of the most important and interesting ways to format a paragraph. Before learning how to do this I never knew where I had to cite the information that was not mine. With this format it is so easy to know where everything goes. I think this is really going to be useful for the rest of my writing career. Although I will not be able to teach this to my pre-school students (when I become a pre-school teacher) since they don’t have capacity to learn this.
I feel better about my writing now that I have taken this class. I don’t see myself as such a bad writer anymore. I think I have improved through the semester. I think you have done a good job at teacher us these techniques. BTW my shoe sizes is a four :) i have really tinny feet :) hahaha
