Blog Entry 12: Reflection and Evaluation

So far taking this class, I feel a little more familiar with the basic information that the professor is requesting from us as students.

In the beginning, it was not easy for me because I had many difficulties following simple directions in the way that the professor wanted from the students to complete the essays.

 I can say that I love computer assignments, but I prefer to have my essays done manually in a piece of paper because I feel that it gives me more possibilities to have my CAT writing final in a better an organized manner.

 That would be one of the main reasons that I would rather to have a little more often my practices for my essays to be done in a piece of paper.

 I also think  that I am still struggling  with thesis, claim, reason and evidence, I mean organizing the structure of the essay.

 Because I am under the impression that when I need to express in writing any kind of story spontaneously,  I usually  express my point of view without thinking what is going to be stated  as claim, evidence and  reason that is required for an essay.

 I can say that I have my best intention to pass this class but I feel a little concerned because I feel that the performance that I expect from myself, in comparison with other previous courses,  I do not see so successful so far. I am thinking in trying to have some tutoring, in order to obtain a clear idea.

In reference with the two movies I have seen so far, I guess It was a good practice  and very helpful to indicate the three steps that the professor requires in an essay.

In conclusion I think that I need to take the time to start with the root that the professor requires from us as students and continue practicing essays the most as I can.

The professor has a very good personality with the students, and I have observed that he  is always ready to respond to the students with a good attitude. And in my personal opinion this is a very good valid point to the class and also a good encouragement for myself as student.
