During our first class session, we all got familiar with one another in class with introductions and looking over our class syllabus. The class is only made up of eight students. Hopefully the size of our class will be to our advantage and we will all be more comfortable with one another, therefore making a more effective learning environment.
Today in class, we discussed about the different reading techniques that we may utilize to help us better understand any reading materials we may come across. First, we went over text-based writing and reading related writing. We read an essay in our text and we were able to see the correct ways to underline, annotate and outline the essay. After, we were able to apply what we have just learned with the exercise provided in our text book. The exercise helped me see that underlining the main ideas and annotating will help understand the text a lot more.
I am looking forward to learning more about writing and reading tools that will help me comprehend essays and stories that I will need to read.
You made a good point. Great ears classmate. Keep it up.
ReplyDeleteWow! I think you are considered a professional writer. Your word usages are just significantly awesome. You bring out great ideas and could most likely become an expert author as well.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more with you about the class being so small. It will allow the class to be comfortable with one another. See you next class. :)
