I felt that all the assigned papers played a significant role in teaching different aspects of writing, and in one way or another, connected them. Academically speaking, the rhetorical analysis was particularly helpful in assisting me to develop analytical skills to interpret diction and syntax and connect it with the author’s intent. Personally, the position paper was my favorite to write, but the research paper has been the most useful in giving me the opportunity to research something of importance and give me ideas and knowledge structure.
I found the class very enjoyable, although I was apprehensive to be taking an English class via Internet. I feel that my writing skills were further developed throughout the course despite the lack of attendance to in-class sessions. The only part that I struggled with was the several different sites in which the work and information was distributed. Often times I’d forget where I read certain information and how long ago it was posted, so I’d spend a significant amount of time searching through e-mails, blackboard, blogspot AND the website.
