Chapter 9 Revising your work

By -
In this chapter, it is emphasized that peer reviewing can be a great tool in a writers belt.  When writing, the author may not notice slight mistakes, and/or details, that are needed to understand the point he or she is getting across.  This is where peer reviewing can definitely come in handy.  Peer reviewing can also possibly add a different point of view to a story, which can be extremely beneficial to the author's story, article, etc.  Since the first draft is mainly just word vomit, peer reviewing can really help you to organize your paper.  I really agreed and followed along with this chapter because last year during my ENC 1101 class, all we did was talk about peer reviewing and the importance of it.  Overall, this chapter was very focused on the fact that peer reviewing is an important step of the editing process in many ways than just one.

    I agree with the fact that peer review helps you notice slight mistakes that you may not have noticed when you were writing. I also agree with the fact that peer reviewing does give you another point of view. By getting this other point of view, you are able to see another perspective on the same topic which could help you enhance your writing of later works.

    Peer review can come in very handy when you don't notice little mistakes in your writing that others will see. Also, it can help with your sentence fluency and making sure others understand the point of your paper.

    Peer review can be helpful criticism and can improve the paper if using the advice in a beneficial way.

    I think peer reviewing is really interesting in the fact that others can add another perspective to your work. I agree.

Navigating Genres Reading Response- Taylor Wilhelmy

By -
"Navigating Genres" by Kerry Dirk makes you really think about what a genre is. Whenever I thought about genres, I always thought of it as the type of writing that is being created. 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...

Taylor   I really liked the video that Taylor made because it was a good visual representation for people who don’t like football. Personally, I like football, so I think it is necessary to have more research done for the players wellbeing. Sarah I really liked how Sarah chose such a relevant topic to today’s times. I really liked her journal entries because it showed how much a person is affected by others. No one should be judged based on their gender. Luke B I really like that he used a survey because it gave a semi accurate representation of the people here. I think it’s really funny that he chose the topic of makeup because most of the girls here always are done up. Kathryn The Spotify playlist was a very unique idea. I like that she included songs that help her study, or can be helpful for studying. Music does tend to affect a person mood, so it was an interesting genre alteration. Logan I really liked the twitter page that he made because it hit his ...
