Chapter 9 - Amiyah Lytle

By -
Basically this chapter is about different ways to revise and remix your work.  Chapter 9 explains that peer reviewing is a good technique for your writing. It allows you to see your writing in a different perspective. They give you different ways to ask one to review your paper. They also give you questions to ask about your paper, as well as follow up questions. In Chapter 9, they also show you how to change your paper to another genre such as multimedia.

I think this chapter is helpful for class tomorrow when peer reviewing each other's papers. I think the questions help to really dive into your paper and understand what kind of message it puts across. The follow up questions also provide for a waypoint clear up and confusions and give you more intel on the steps you should take to revise your paper.

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 school. This paper was more formal than other research papers I have written.
