One thing I appreciate about writing 2 is that every class
is different, and so much knowledge is thrown at us every time. I feel like I’ve
actually learned so much already. PB1A was really helpful for me and I enjoyed
writing it, but this week in particular one of my favorite activities was the
PB1B. Exploring all the genre generator websites really solidified my grasp of
the genre topic and helped me understand the multiple aspects that factor into
each genre. I thought it was interesting to see the difference between textual
conventions and visual conventions, as they both are different, yet accomplish
the same goal.
I also thoroughly enjoyed the discussion about hyphens and
dashes, as I needed some clarification. Before the class I think I would’ve said
I understood dashes more than hyphens, but now I think I am slightly more confused
with dashes than anything. I feel that they serve almost the exact same purpose
of commas and still don’t quite understand when to use them. Other than that,
my only real problem this week was trying to decide on a topic for my WP1. For
me, that’s usually the hardest part and once I do pick a topic, writing the
paper comes rather easily. I’m still stuck and trying to decide on a topic but I
have two in mind and I am trying to see what topic would result in a more solid
paper.
Another thing I liked about this week was when each group discussed
and then shared a vocabulary term with the class. Many of the terms were new to
me and going through all of them so in depth was an easy way to quickly learn
their meanings. Solid week, I’d say!
