Daily Class Notes.

From the syllabus, I learned we have to fully engage into the class – being a good speaker or a good listener. Being a college student, do something outside of the class is critical, including prepare for the next class or do some extra works.

How we gonna utilize our textbooks ( to improve our writing ability) are the question I am wondering.

Last Week we paired up to listen/tell stories to each others. I learnt a lot from the activity including how to be a good listener and how I can organize a story, make my story graphic, making people understand it better.

Class Notes – 8/29

  1. One thing that will take some getting used to is the fact that we only have 7 assignments that we will be turning in for a grade. If you slack off on a couple of them and get a bad grade, your overall grade in the class is going to drop significantly.
  2. I feel it’s important to note that blog postings and informal writings will not be graded so just do your best and don’t worry about making every post perfect.

I think making connections and engage in discussions are the important aspects of this course.

I’m wondering whether our assignments will closely related to the book that we are going to read.

Question: Will our class be structured by what book we are reading for a certain period? Or is it less structured and more spontaneous?

What Is Important: I think that the resources at the very bottom of the syllabus are important while we navigate this course.

I don’t have any questions about the syllabus after reading through it.

I think one of the most important things for me is going to be time management. I get the feeling that success in this class, and my quality of life in general, is going to be directly correlated to how early I start working on assignments!

I’m sure the information about assignments and the final assessment will be useful to know going forward. I didn’t realize we’d be quoting ourselves from our own posts within our final assignment.

I only wonder what topic the final assignment will concern?

Something that I have never done before, but I am excited to do is analyze my writing at the middle and end of the semester. It will be interesting to see how my writing has changed and how this course has impacted me. I also think it will be fun to review my writing and have the chance to revisit old topics we discussed in class.

6-9 hours of work out of class is new to me. It also seems like there will be higher writing expectations, and I am curious as to if we will be able to get revision help from you or the writing center during office hours.

After reading the syllabus,  I don’t have any questions about the information provided but I am a little nervous about the outside workload.

I think that an important part of the class will be keeping up with the reading and working on your writing as much as you can.

I think having informed, open discussions will be important to this class.

I feel like the change in proportions of work completed inside and outside of class might be hard to get used to.
