Annoying Ways Repsonse

By Anonymous -
I found it very interesting and somewhat funny how to author of the article decided to introduce the topic. It truly grasped my attention and was a great flow into the main topic: annoying sources. I liked how Stedman would reference back to this scenario as the topic was elaborated more and more on. The article was overall, very very useful in the sense that it presented readers with the "annoying ways" and also provided for examples accompanied by fixes. Since I am a visual learner, being provided with examples and shown the correct fixes, this article was very beneficial. However, I do have to admit, I have made these sourcing mistakes in the past, so I WILL be referencing back to this article to better my research paper.

    I agree the way the author compared people driving to topics in his article kept my attention while I was reading

    I am also a visual learner! The examples really helped. I feel that this article was more beneficial because not only did it explain citation fixes but also gave examples.

All throughout school, we were taught that a genre was used to describe a novel such as nonfiction, fiction, fantasy, science fiction, etc. I never really thought of a piece of writing having a genre but now, after reading Dirk's piece, I now realize that writing does have a genre. Dirk also points out that genres are used to help people accomplish a goal. I never thought a genre could do that. I always thought it was used to just categorize novels or short stories but, now that I have read this piece, I now realize that genres are important because, if you write in the wrong genre, the message that you want to portray can come across completely differently then you had intended. The example that Dirk used of George Washington and his State of the Union Address. By using this genre, Washington...

Project 2 Reflection

1)      In this essay I am most proud of the new way in which I learned to write a research paper. I was able to incorporate new writing skills into my paper that I never learned in my high school classes but will aid me in my future writing. 2)      If I had more time to work on this essay I would try to include more specific details to support my topic from a wider range of sources and provide more reasoning to support the legalization of physician assisted suicide. 3)      Peer reviews benefitted my essay the most. This is because it provided me with a lot of constructive feedback that I was able to take into consideration while editing my paper. The teacher review also helped me inn a similar way because it gave me some direction with where to go with my essay. 4)      While writing this project I was able to learn a different way of writing a research paper in which I have previously done in high...
