Final Blog Post!

Throughout the semester I learned so much from this writing course. This was my first semester at Lewis University and when I first walked into this writing course I knew no one. I literally sat down in the first seat by the door. As days went on I got more comfortable talking out loud and answering questions. This was different for me because I never was the person to volunteer myself to answer questions, usually the professor would have to call on me to get me to talk. I feel like this course helped me become more engaged in the classroom discussion and participate more. I loved how Dr. Kyburz really encouraged participation and I feel like she had a big impact on helping me to become more involved in the discussion in class. I still have many things to work on such as, commas and semicolons which we discussed a lot throughout the semester. I was never really good at grammar but I'm hoping as I continue school it gets better. I really liked our group projects, I normally don't like working in group projects because most of the time I get stuck doing all the work. When we did it in this course I felt like everyone participated and it wasn't just one person doing the work. I especially liked the group police reports we did, it was super fun. It was very interesting to write a report on those police clips we watched. The only thing in this course i didn't like were the blog posts. I feel like keeping up with what happens in law enforcement is important but I didn't find a point in writing about it. I'd like to discuss it but not write a post about it. Overall, i feel like this course was a success. I really enjoyed coming to class.
Schools Out for the summer!
Hope everyone has a great summer break!
