{Free-Write #5} Final Project Thoughts-Digging Deep to Express
My syllabi will allow my students to reflect on what they have learned in the course and use the writing process to create a memoir. We all have a story to tell and I have found that writing serves as a sense of rehabilitation for the heart. Here is a sample video of how to find and conquer your feelings while writing.
{Free-Write #4} Final Project Thoughts
My final lproject will be based off of Lindemann's idea of how college composition should be taught. I have had the opportunity to read articles from well-known literary writers. I agree with some and others were questionable. My syllabus will reflect reading and writing. My belief is that reading assists in becoming a better writer. The course will be both visual and auditorically based. I need to ensure that my students are well versed by the end of the course. I am so excited about completing this challenge, thanks to Erika Lindemann.
[Free-Write #3] Final Project Thoughts
Trying to figure out which application I was going to use took ksome time. I wanted to use an application that would allow me to hyperlink, use text, and use images that are easy to access. I was so excited about completing the task, not really realizing how much work it all entailed. It took me three weeks to develop a syllabi, but I wanted to challeng myself. I know that my future goal is to become a college professor. I could have taken a 6th grade lesson plan and revampt it to flow for the assignment, but I think that would have been to easy. PowerPoint Presentations are fun, easy, and accessible. I will be using the application to display my work and showing my creativity.
Presentation Reflection
I was so excited to present on plagarism. I enjoyed working with my group and learning more about the different elements of using technology properly and legally. The group discussion was good and very memorable. I feel that I could change the flow of the presentation just a little. I would have liked for each of the presenters to give feedback off of each others presntation and maybe explain some of the elements that we discussed during lour prep sessions. I guess that is one struggle that come about when completing group asssignments. I loved the dynamics that each of us took as an approach. I really enjoyed the chapters. I feel that our presenattion was engaging and interesting.
