Semi-Week Reflection: Week 5
Prompt:
What have we done so far that has been helpful to your writing process? How might you apply this helpful information or tool? What has been confusing or what would you like to spend more time on? If the clarification/additional focus does not occur during class time, how will you acquire the knowledge?
The main thing that has been helpful for me in my writing process is the peer review. Each of us reviewed the paper of one of our peers, and we had to give helpful and thoughtful tips on their writing. When writing my paper, I know what I am trying to convey, but it might not come across easily to a reader. The peer review was helpful because it allowed me to understand how an actual reader of my paper would feel about my paper. I will use these criticisms to improve my paper. These criticisms focused on how my paper didn’t actually show how much I’ve grown from my learning experiences, so now I will work on showing that in my paper.
Currently, what has been confusing me is working on the Portfolio webpage. I am used to Google Sites when it comes to website creation, so I had a tough time changing the intricate parts of the website. I had to create the website 3 different times before I was able to complete it to my liking. I will acquire more knowledge on this website creation tool by experimenting on different sites and looking at tutorials to get more experience on this site creation tool.
