In WR 121 this term the teacher teaches many things such as summary articles, evaluation, and
response essays or articles, but the most challenging is writing a response essay. I realize that the
writing process is similar playing tennis process. In research essays, students are required to do a lot
of research papers to find important, credible and important sources that could be responsive to my
topic. Students researched many subjects, and I felt interesting to respond to other author's ideas.
Before students answered the ideas of the authors, they spend the time to research many articles, and
then they chose credible and important information to put it in my essay. It was my problems because
I didn't do well about connecting information together, and...show more content...
After teacher gave a low pass for that essay, I attempted to improve my weakness for writing every

practicing tennis. If people want to become good players, they should learn from others and the
internet. I learn tennis techniques such as how to serve, volley, smash, backhand, forehand on the
internet and other players. I usually look for videos on YouTube. I found out many video sources
on YouTube, and choose videos that people usually watch and popularize in the world. The Internet
contains a large helpful sources, but applying them into practice are rough. I must experience
hardships, exercised to improve my techniques, so my tennis skills increase as in the writing
process. Every time playing tennis, I always think about my writing. If I desire to improve writing

Reflection Paper On Ted Talk
For this assignment, I chose to watch a Ted Talk that focused on the importance of understanding
differences. It is entitled Love No Matter What and is the culmination of years of research done
by Andrew Solomon. I chose this Ted Talk because I thought it would be interesting to hear about
different lived experiences that people have endured. One of the huge ideas I have learned
throughout this leadership course and all our topics and conversation is that we all have different
lived experiences. It is our lived experiences that make us special and individual. Love No Matter
What focused on this essential idea and how important differences are. The topic of this Ted Talk
completely reflects what has been said in our leadership class as well as what I think a student
leader at Western Oregon University should be. Solomon's talk is centered around the
relationship of parents and children and accepting and loving children, but the ideas expressed in
his talk can be applied to any human relationship. I believe Western is a university that deeply
prides itself in its student diversity and acceptedness of said diversity. The Western that I know,
and love, understands the true necessity of diversity and wishes to be accepting of diversity in all
of its forms. To me, listening to this Ted Talk was very emotional and personal. I have been
incredible blessed with parents in my life that love and accept me the way I am. However, I have not,
or at least not much, challenged them in

Crisis Management Response Plan Essay
An effective crisis management response plan outlines specific procedures for administrator,
teachers, and students during evacuation emergencies. Administrators work with teachers, students,
parents, law enforcement officers, business and community members, to develop an effective
emergency and crises plan. The administrator provides leadership in developing and monitoring the
school safety plan and also establishes procedures for emergency evacuation and crisis management
at different stages of the plan. However, an effective leader develops a comprehensive prevention
education plan, and regularly reviews the code of conduct manual for revisions and current laws.

Or you could open with a dilemma or problem and then close with the solution. A different version
of that is to re–tell the same story in the conclusion with a different (usually better) ending.
Examples: * On an essay about cell phone use in cars, you could open with a scenario showing a
person getting a call while driving and thinking about what to do. In the conclusion, you could have
the end of the scenario–maybe the driver pulls over to take the call, or decides to let voicemail take
it. * On an essay about dealing with a family member with Alzheimer's, you could open with a
conversation between family members trying to figure out what to do. You can conclude with a
conversation between the same people after they have decided to place that person in a nursing
home. * On an essay about oil drilling in the Gulf, you could open by describing vividly the
oil–soaked coastline and the dying wildlife. You could conclude with what that coastline looks like
now. * On any topic which you have personal experience, you can open with part of your story, and
then conclude with the ending of your story.

Emotional Response Essay
WEEK TWO I had not considered emotional history to a great extent before the seminar, instead
focusing on the 'everyday' aspect of infant mortality (IM). Dyhouse and Newton's articles presented
questions, including why concern over IM grew, and why males were stoic rather than expressing
emotion; something I had not acknowledged as part of Victorian mannerism, attributing it to the
patriarchies of the postmodern world. Questioning whether the sources used by Newton portrayed
true emotions or were merely presentations of such expanded my understanding, and presented
further questions. Can we truly understand past emotions when all we have is a representation and
cannot experience them the same way? I suggested that we can merely interpret the presentation of
emotion, not the true emotions of the past, however, I now acknowledge that there is something of a
perpetual emotional response (PER) to the death of infants, and that we are able to interpret the
past's emotions through this understanding....show more content...
The ruling classes had to maintain the empire, and as such, technocrats were forced to act to stop
the population decreasing. The rise of working class consciousness (WCC) was a reason behind
social reforms, as the elite wished to control their subordinates to a greater extent. I considered my
own perception of IM after the seminar. With no experience of it myself, I was unable to determine
whether a PER was entirely accurate, although I turned to examples I knew of. This brought my
attention back to AriГЁs' 'attitudes to death' and the changes in death's perception between the

Personal Experience During an Interview Essay
When I think of the word interview I think of it as a series of questions asked from one person to
another to seek information. In my previous assessment we were asked to interview a fellow peer,
on their personal experience of QIBT so far this year. We were not given any question, but made to
think of our own. As we were interviewing our peer another peer was marking us on our overall
ability to interview. This piece of reflective writing will be an explanation of what I thought my
personal strengths and weaknesses were throughout my interview.

Whilst the open ended questions allowed deeper responses as spoken about above it was also
evident that these questions allowed Mary Doe to feel comfortable throughout the interview as she
was allowed to express her own open thought rather than having a written script of multiple smaller
closed ended questions. REF
The safe environment was carried through the whole interview. I concluded the interview by asking
Mary Doe if she had any concerns or further questions she would like to talk about. This continues
the safe environment feel, which I created throughout the whole interview.
Once finishing the interview I recall thinking that I had forgotten one major factor within the
interview, which was taking notes. This would have to be my only major weakness that I found I
had whilst interviewing Mary Doe. At the time I was so focused on eye contact, so it was really
easy for myself to just ask the questions and get lost in the answer whilst trying to figure out what
question to ask next. The lack of note taking in response to Mary Doe's answers left me forgetting
to listen one hundred percent as I was switching focus to what came next. When researching how I
can improve this skill there was a lot of positive feedback on how to strengthen this skill. One that I
shall be focusing on for future interviewing opportunities is to continually jot down small phrases as
spoken, any specific information that is useful

How To Write A Rhetorical Response
I agree with Danielle, that the writers audience is toward the people who are ruing the island by
logging. I think this because in the essay he tries to say that he has nothing against logging, logger,
or the logging industry, but he tries to say why can't we, while having a chance stop this. Also, the
author continuously throughout the essay talks about his love for the island and all its beauty and
wanting to protect it. The author's organizational strategies. While reading the essay, I picked up on

How To Write A Reflective Reading Response
Reflective Reading Response In the chapter, "Equal Sharing Problems and Children's Strategies for
Solving them" the authors recommend fractions be introduced to students through equal sharing
problems that use countable quantities because they can be shared by people or other groupings. In
other words, quantities can be split, cut, or divided. Additionally, equal sharing problems assist
children to create "rich mental models "for fractions (p.10). Prior to reading the chapter, I had no
idea that the strategies students use to solve fractions had names. Such strategies include: additive
coordination, ratio, repeating halves, etc.. I always referred to other strategies as inventive strategies
or the common "other way" to get the solution.

How To Write A Response Speech
Today I will be typing a response essay to a political speech. The political speech that I chose was
when Former President Barack Obama gave his last speech to the United Nations which happened
near the end of last year. Barack Obama stated in his speech that "Indeed, our International order
has been so successful that we take it as a given that great powers no longer fight world wars; that
the end of the Cold War lifted the shadow of nuclear Armageddon; that the battlefields of Europe
have been replaced by Peaceful union; that China and India stay on a path of remarkable growth." I
chose this quote because it shows examples of great things that have happened around the world. A
couple of things that should be pointed out is when Barack Obama was speaking in the YouTube
video it showed faces of other world Leaders and representatives from other country's it seemed
like they had mixed emotions about the speech some showed a facial expression of acceptance
some seemed in deep thought and others showed faces of concern. Also, the reasoning on why this
speech was given is because he was trying to convince fellow world leaders to work together and
to criticize those who seek a simple rejection of global integration. When the speech was over effect

Poetry Response Essay
For the rewrite assignment, you noted that the poem is very circular, as there is not any evident
logical flow in my writing. After re–reading the poem, I agree. You instructed me to, "write this
poem as something that keeps moving forward in its philosophical exploration... Then, rewrite the
poem to about one and a half times its current length, moving it continually forward." I re–evaluated
the poem and removed some lines that I thought where unnecessary. I also increased the length from
twelve to eighteen lines. Further, I wrote philosophical progression into the revised poem; instead of
being random ramblings (which, ironically, might be the fate of this solipsist after he discovers what
he believes to be the truth), the poem now flows with...show more content...
However, the questions I ask about her double standards are worth examining (at least, worth it
enough to include it in the poem). Her infidelity in the face of claiming monogamy was one thing
that stood out to me during the relationship, so I included it in the poem. The primary critique
comes with the lines, "Sure, blame it on your friend Price cause she was "pressuring" you/But she
be cuffed with someone too? What kind of feminist are you?//She claims she's for monogamy
question it, that's misogyny/But how many real feminists use the booze as an apology?/I'm trying
to be constant but she is acting like it's different/If a man do it, he trippen', but a woman, she
indifferent." She initially blames her infidelity on peer pressure from her friend Price, who was also
cheating with some random guy at Bowdoin College, but this seems contrary to the empowering and
independent message of feminism. Should not one be able to make her own choices without being
controlled by others? Further, when her friends tried to justify her actions by mentioning the
possibility of alcohol involved, I could not help but consider the rejection of alcohol as an excuse
for men by feminists in similar

Reflection On My English 101 Experience
Reflecting on My English 101 Experience I used to consider writing as tumble words from your
mind, write, read it through, fix minor mistakes, and done. However, you rarely get successful. The
truth is many students, including myself, struggle with starting to write a word, or getting stuck in
the middle without knowing the main point of the writing. After completing English 101, I can
explain the writing process, evaluate the strengths of my essay, and identify my weaknesses.
Throughout English 101, I learned that the following the writing process was imperative. Before
taking this class, I use to always skip the pre–writing step considering that it is just an easy and
unnecessary step. Consequently, I struggled to figure how to start writing, and most importantly I
struggled to figure out the main point while writing the draft. And then I finish the first draft close to
the deadline that I do not have time to read it not to mention revising. It was after I started this class
that learned that pre–writing is vital, and requires time and attention as it holds the base of the
whole writing. My professor used different analogies such as blueprint for building and map for
navigation to explain the importance. It really speeded up my writing after I started to utilize it. I
have learned outlining before, but part of the pre–writing that I was fortunate enough to learning in
English 101 is the writing triangle. Even before outlining, the topic, purpose, and audience of the

Reader Response: the Lottery
Reader Response #2: The Lottery "The Lottery" is a short story written by Shirley Jackson and
published in 1948. The title of the story initially leads readers to believe the story is going to be
about someone winning some kind of prize. Even the opening of the story seems to protest any foul
play or cruel behavior. What the reader is introduced to is a seemingly friendly gathering of a small
village community, members all gathered around anxiously awaiting their drawing for the lottery.
The village members all chatter amongst one another in a tone that kind neighbors would take with
one another. To the surprise of the reader, the story provides a shocking twist. The story is not about

She certainly succeeded in shocking her audiences with the unforeseeable twist that arose at the
end of the story. I did not expect the ending that I read. Even when I realized that the woman of
the family who drew the winning ticket was arguing against the winnings, I had not ever thought
that perhaps someone would die as a result. The fact that children were also allowed to participate
in the drawing is what really made my stomach churn. Jackson certainly provided a detailed
enough picture in such a few short pages to pull a physical reaction from me. I cannot rightfully
say that the story was a good one, but it definitely was brilliant. It still amazes me that an author
can write so descriptively and so intelligently that he or she can pull physical, mental, and
emotional reactions from the person reading the story. In this case, I had several reactions to the
story. Not only did I feel disgusted at how the community members were so eager to stone the
woman to death, I also felt a mind–numbing sensation at the fact that such violence and cruelty
closely mirrors our own modern society without the archaic practices. As a modern society, we cut
down the individual members of society in new ways. While we may not string them up to hang
them, we do string them up publicly for the purpose of cruelty and humiliation. Just look at

How to Resolve Conflict Essay
Conflict is in inevitable part of our everyday lives. Since no two people view things in the exact
same manner, disagreement will most certainly arise at some point in time. Conflict is simply a
difference of opinion and is considered to be a normal part of our everyday lives. There are several
different forms of conflict and not all of them are considered to be bad. This paper will discuss the
causes of conflict, the different types of conflict, and barriers to conflict. According to
Communication Research Associates, conflict is a condition of imbalance within an individual
(Communication Research Associates, 2005, p. 178). Keep in mind that just as there are
disadvantages to conflict, there are also several advantages.

For example, if you are at work and walk by someone's desk and accidently knock their pen on the
floor. All of sudden, the person lashes out and starts to curse at you. Knowing that this is not the
norm for your coworker, it would safe to assume that they are under some form of stress or have
other things on their mind. By knowing this, it becomes easier to respond in a more responsible,
tempered, and appropriate, manner. Sometimes ego can become a cause for conflict as well. There
may come a time when someone is wrong about something or they may have made a mistake but
they refuse to admit it. Because they have such a high ego, they may become self–protective of their
situation, therefore causing conflict because they refuse to admit they were wrong. Instead they may
choose to become persistent in standing their ground, whether they are right or wrong.
During communication, if the intended goals are not clearly identified, there is a greater
possibility for error and it could further aggravate a situation, causing conflict. Because each
individual is different there are bound to be clashes within certain personality types. For example,
if someone prefers to discuss everything in detail and I prefer to get straight to the point then we
could have a personality clash because we are not seeing things eye–to–eye. They may view me as

Examples Of Reader Response Theory
Reader Response Theory Reader–response theory identifies the reader as an affective agent who
imparts real exist–ence and life to the work, completing its meaning through interpretation. Reader–
response criti–cism argues that literature should be viewed as art in which each reader creates his or
her own–most likely unique, text–related performance. I am using Wolfgang Iser and Stanley Fish's
takes on Reader Response for my study. Iser's Theory of Reception and Transactional Reader
Response Theory According to Iser, any literary text which is a product of the Writer's intentional
acts part–ly controls the response of a reader; however, this includes an abundance of gaps. In order
to comprehend more clearly, the reader must take action in active participation in attempting to
cre–atively fill these gaps with the given information of the test put before him; Thereby allowing
the Reader and the text to undergo a transactional process. Iser speaks of the Actual reader in
distinction to the Implied reader who is formed within a text and expected to react and respond in
specific ways to the response inducing structure of the text. The actual reader, however, is an
individual with its own personal experiences accumu–lated as baggage wherein responses actually

What lies behind Fish's thinking is a strong view of the social construction of reality; as he firmly
believes that knowledge is not objective but always socially conditioned. All that one thinks and
knows is an interpretation that is only made possible by the social context in which one lives. For

one lives and furthermore the socially conditioned individual, which all individuals are, cannot think
beyond the limits made possible by the culture. This culture is referred to by Fish as an interpre–tive

Poem Response Essay
In just one paper, I am going to go from two inspirational poems, to a more depressing one. The
inspirational poem I will be responding to is "The Tyger", written by William Blake. This piece is
by far one of my favorite poems read. I read it often just to remind me not to wimp around with my
lifting and my getting bigger, just like the song by Survivor, "Eye of the Tiger", does for me. It keeps
in mind what it's going to take to do this. The second piece of inspiration I like is, "I will put Chaos
into fourteen lines", by Edna St. VincentMillay. On a depressing side of things, I am then moving
on to a more disheartening type of poem. This poem is "Facing It", by Yusef Komunyakaa.
In "The Tyger", by Blake, I...show more content...
The second poem that I found inspirational to me was "I will put Chaos into fourteen lines", by
Millay. The author tries to describe how to attempt to hold chaos back. Through this poem, she
describes chaos as a male type of thing by constantly referring to chaos using he, his, and him. She
shows chaos's many features, such as its "adroit designs", amorphous shapes, and it's arrogance. I
don't like how the author tries to contain chaos, because really it could never happen. Chaos is
something that once released or started, is a very hard thing to get put down or stopped. I know that
this is under the title of the poem, that she is putting chaos into the fourteen lines, but I still don't like
how it's written. I think the poem should be more uncontrolled, and having the chaos breaking out of
the poem in the end. Saying that she maybe thought she could contain it, but then realized she
couldn't.
I like the line of "Past are the hours, the years, or our duress" for the fact it's talking about how
chaos takes so long to take care of. When I enter the weight room, I want to go in with the mindset
of complete chaos, and that I'm going to cause chaos and treat the weights in a way that if they
would happen to be human, they wouldn't want to

Literary Response And Analysis
The revised LRA or Literary Response and Analysis is an example of mastery of Writing
Standard 5 that is about listening to peers and adults and making edits and revisions. To begin

probably wouldn't know what to do. Also, the crew would be starving and tired as well if Gandalf
didn't know who Beorn is." After receiving constructive criticism from my teacher, edits from the

In particular, I wrote and rewrote a few rough drafts and also read through several peer review
sheets or comments left on the Google Doc itself. The peer edit sheets were extremely useful for
helping and correcting any mistakes because the other person could have different opinions on
how to improve the essay as well as being able to discover mistakes I probably accidentally read
over and did not notice it. Just as important were the self–assessment since that was most of the
revision part and leads to the final product. For example, before the first self–assessment, my essay
states, "However, the original novel already planned out the best beginning character personalities,
therefore changing the initial plan of the book is useless because it can backfire." After reviewing
the essay, I later wrote, "Changing the initial plan is useless because Tolkein already spent
countless hours thinking and trying to perfect the quest of Bilbo and the dwarves." The transition
aspect of the rubric improved my writing because it presented the expectation for how well the
essay is supposed to "flow" together and be more smooth to read. After the first assessment, I made
two more important changes after the peer review sheets. A major revision made was, "However, in
the movie The Hobbit directed by Peter Jackson, he had made

How To Write Response Essay

  • 1. In WR 121 this term the teacher teaches many things such as summary articles, evaluation, and response essays or articles, but the most challenging is writing a response essay. I realize that the writing process is similar playing tennis process. In research essays, students are required to do a lot of research papers to find important, credible and important sources that could be responsive to my topic. Students researched many subjects, and I felt interesting to respond to other author's ideas. Before students answered the ideas of the authors, they spend the time to research many articles, and then they chose credible and important information to put it in my essay. It was my problems because I didn't do well about connecting information together, and...show more content...

I learn to develop a better arrangement and write essays with strong ideas, so my writing become well than the beginning of this term. I realize that writing a response essay such as practicing tennis. If people want to become good players, they should learn from others and the internet. I learn tennis techniques such as how to serve, volley, smash, backhand, forehand on the internet and other players. I usually look for videos on YouTube. I found out many video sources on YouTube, and choose videos that people usually watch and popularize in the world. The Internet contains a large helpful sources, but applying them into practice are rough. I must experience hardships, exercised to improve my techniques, so my tennis skills increase as in the writing process. Every time playing tennis, I always think about my writing. If I desire to improve writing and tennis, I need to practice, and research resources on the Internet, and then use it in writing essays and practicing Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 2. Reflection Paper On Ted Talk For this assignment, I chose to watch a Ted Talk that focused on the importance of understanding differences. It is entitled Love No Matter What and is the culmination of years of research done by Andrew Solomon. I chose this Ted Talk because I thought it would be interesting to hear about different lived experiences that people have endured. One of the huge ideas I have learned throughout this leadership course and all our topics and conversation is that we all have different lived experiences. It is our lived experiences that make us special and individual. Love No Matter What focused on this essential idea and how important differences are. The topic of this Ted Talk completely reflects what has been said in our leadership class as well as what I think a student leader at Western Oregon University should be. Solomon's talk is centered around the relationship of parents and children and accepting and loving children, but the ideas expressed in his talk can be applied to any human relationship. I believe Western is a university that deeply prides itself in its student diversity and acceptedness of said diversity. The Western that I know, and love, understands the true necessity of diversity and wishes to be accepting of diversity in all of its forms. To me, listening to this Ted Talk was very emotional and personal. I have been incredible blessed with parents in my life that love and accept me the way I am. However, I have not, or at least not much, challenged them in Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 3. Crisis Management Response Plan Essay An effective crisis management response plan outlines specific procedures for administrator, teachers, and students during evacuation emergencies. Administrators work with teachers, students, parents, law enforcement officers, business and community members, to develop an effective emergency and crises plan. The administrator provides leadership in developing and monitoring the school safety plan and also establishes procedures for emergency evacuation and crisis management at different stages of the plan. However, an effective leader develops a comprehensive prevention education plan, and regularly reviews the code of conduct manual for revisions and current laws. The emergency and crisis plan identifies the designated people to contact...show more content...

Or you could open with a dilemma or problem and then close with the solution. A different version of that is to re–tell the same story in the conclusion with a different (usually better) ending. Examples: * On an essay about cell phone use in cars, you could open with a scenario showing a person getting a call while driving and thinking about what to do. In the conclusion, you could have the end of the scenario–maybe the driver pulls over to take the call, or decides to let voicemail take it. * On an essay about dealing with a family member with Alzheimer's, you could open with a conversation between family members trying to figure out what to do. You can conclude with a conversation between the same people after they have decided to place that person in a nursing home. * On an essay about oil drilling in the Gulf, you could open by describing vividly the oil–soaked coastline and the dying wildlife. You could conclude with what that coastline looks like now. * On any topic which you have personal experience, you can open with part of your story, and then conclude with the ending of your story.

Briefly explain the main points of the article that you want to talk about. Then you will give your thesis. Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 5. Emotional Response Essay WEEK TWO I had not considered emotional history to a great extent before the seminar, instead focusing on the 'everyday' aspect of infant mortality (IM). Dyhouse and Newton's articles presented questions, including why concern over IM grew, and why males were stoic rather than expressing emotion; something I had not acknowledged as part of Victorian mannerism, attributing it to the patriarchies of the postmodern world. Questioning whether the sources used by Newton portrayed true emotions or were merely presentations of such expanded my understanding, and presented further questions. Can we truly understand past emotions when all we have is a representation and cannot experience them the same way? I suggested that we can merely interpret the presentation of emotion, not the true emotions of the past, however, I now acknowledge that there is something of a perpetual emotional response (PER) to the death of infants, and that we are able to interpret the past's emotions through this understanding....show more content... The ruling classes had to maintain the empire, and as such, technocrats were forced to act to stop the population decreasing. The rise of working class consciousness (WCC) was a reason behind social reforms, as the elite wished to control their subordinates to a greater extent. I considered my own perception of IM after the seminar. With no experience of it myself, I was unable to determine whether a PER was entirely accurate, although I turned to examples I knew of. This brought my attention back to AriГЁs' 'attitudes to death' and the changes in death's perception between the Victorian period and Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 6. Creative Response Essay Creative Response – Hunger Games Questions Quick note: I am not writing with my own person as a character in this. I found inspiration, rolled with it. Sorry. – [ 7 ]– " The train ride is smooth, and all the way there, I am left thinking of the event that will soon follow. I can't remember what hunger games I'm participating in. The number doesn't matter anymore, it's a sure fact I'm going to die, so I haven't held that much attention to it. It may be the 73rd. I don't know. All I can think of is home.

"I'm Leon Pyresmith, and I'm going to be your stylist." – [7] – Fast forward an hour or two, and I feel like something mystical, because I was dressed like something mystical.

It brought tears to my eyes, like many of the events that have happened today. My skin was shimmering, intricate designs painted on my face and over my arms and legs, the dark, robes that looked like leaves fell flatteringly over my body, not revealing, but flattering.

  • 7. Personal Experience During an Interview Essay When I think of the word interview I think of it as a series of questions asked from one person to another to seek information. In my previous assessment we were asked to interview a fellow peer, on their personal experience of QIBT so far this year. We were not given any question, but made to think of our own. As we were interviewing our peer another peer was marking us on our overall ability to interview. This piece of reflective writing will be an explanation of what I thought my personal strengths and weaknesses were throughout my interview. Through reflecting on my previous interview I was able to pull apart both positives and negatives aspects of my interview allowing myself time to look into the effects that the negative...show more content... Whilst the open ended questions allowed deeper responses as spoken about above it was also evident that these questions allowed Mary Doe to feel comfortable throughout the interview as she was allowed to express her own open thought rather than having a written script of multiple smaller closed ended questions. REF The safe environment was carried through the whole interview. I concluded the interview by asking Mary Doe if she had any concerns or further questions she would like to talk about. This continues the safe environment feel, which I created throughout the whole interview. Once finishing the interview I recall thinking that I had forgotten one major factor within the interview, which was taking notes. This would have to be my only major weakness that I found I had whilst interviewing Mary Doe. At the time I was so focused on eye contact, so it was really easy for myself to just ask the questions and get lost in the answer whilst trying to figure out what question to ask next. The lack of note taking in response to Mary Doe's answers left me forgetting to listen one hundred percent as I was switching focus to what came next. When researching how I can improve this skill there was a lot of positive feedback on how to strengthen this skill. One that I shall be focusing on for future interviewing opportunities is to continually jot down small phrases as spoken, any specific information that is useful Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 8. How To Write A Rhetorical Response I agree with Danielle, that the writers audience is toward the people who are ruing the island by logging. I think this because in the essay he tries to say that he has nothing against logging, logger, or the logging industry, but he tries to say why can't we, while having a chance stop this. Also, the author continuously throughout the essay talks about his love for the island and all its beauty and wanting to protect it. The author's organizational strategies. While reading the essay, I picked up on a few organizational strategies that the author used, those being: Problem–solution– Bill Reid proposes that the problem occurring is the logging of an island he loves, Windy Bay.

How To Write A Reflective Reading Response Reflective Reading Response In the chapter, "Equal Sharing Problems and Children's Strategies for Solving them" the authors recommend fractions be introduced to students through equal sharing problems that use countable quantities because they can be shared by people or other groupings. In other words, quantities can be split, cut, or divided. Additionally, equal sharing problems assist children to create "rich mental models "for fractions (p.10). Prior to reading the chapter, I had no idea that the strategies students use to solve fractions had names. Such strategies include: additive coordination, ratio, repeating halves, etc.. I always referred to other strategies as inventive strategies or the common "other way" to get the solution. Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 10. How To Write A Response Speech Today I will be typing a response essay to a political speech. The political speech that I chose was when Former President Barack Obama gave his last speech to the United Nations which happened near the end of last year. Barack Obama stated in his speech that "Indeed, our International order has been so successful that we take it as a given that great powers no longer fight world wars; that the end of the Cold War lifted the shadow of nuclear Armageddon; that the battlefields of Europe have been replaced by Peaceful union; that China and India stay on a path of remarkable growth." I chose this quote because it shows examples of great things that have happened around the world. A couple of things that should be pointed out is when Barack Obama was speaking in the YouTube video it showed faces of other world Leaders and representatives from other country's it seemed like they had mixed emotions about the speech some showed a facial expression of acceptance some seemed in deep thought and others showed faces of concern. Also, the reasoning on why this speech was given is because he was trying to convince fellow world leaders to work together and to criticize those who seek a simple rejection of global integration. When the speech was over effect started to take place where some country's...show more content... Also that Barack Obama gave his last speech to the UN late last year this is a large problem and he tried to convince other world leaders to form an alliance or some form of agreeable contract or something with other countries to prevent large problems like huge wars that could spread and become much worse than before.

Finally, let's just hope stronger agreements are made for specific countries to prevent any large war in the Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 11. Poetry Response Essay For the rewrite assignment, you noted that the poem is very circular, as there is not any evident logical flow in my writing. After re–reading the poem, I agree. You instructed me to, "write this poem as something that keeps moving forward in its philosophical exploration... Then, rewrite the poem to about one and a half times its current length, moving it continually forward." I re–evaluated the poem and removed some lines that I thought where unnecessary. I also increased the length from twelve to eighteen lines. Further, I wrote philosophical progression into the revised poem; instead of being random ramblings (which, ironically, might be the fate of this solipsist after he discovers what he believes to be the truth), the poem now flows with...show more content... However, the questions I ask about her double standards are worth examining (at least, worth it enough to include it in the poem). Her infidelity in the face of claiming monogamy was one thing that stood out to me during the relationship, so I included it in the poem. The primary critique comes with the lines, "Sure, blame it on your friend Price cause she was "pressuring" you/But she be cuffed with someone too? What kind of feminist are you?//She claims she's for monogamy question it, that's misogyny/But how many real feminists use the booze as an apology?/I'm trying to be constant but she is acting like it's different/If a man do it, he trippen', but a woman, she indifferent." She initially blames her infidelity on peer pressure from her friend Price, who was also cheating with some random guy at Bowdoin College, but this seems contrary to the empowering and independent message of feminism. Should not one be able to make her own choices without being controlled by others? Further, when her friends tried to justify her actions by mentioning the possibility of alcohol involved, I could not help but consider the rejection of alcohol as an excuse for men by feminists in similar Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 12. Reflection On My English 101 Experience Reflecting on My English 101 Experience I used to consider writing as tumble words from your mind, write, read it through, fix minor mistakes, and done. However, you rarely get successful. The truth is many students, including myself, struggle with starting to write a word, or getting stuck in the middle without knowing the main point of the writing. After completing English 101, I can explain the writing process, evaluate the strengths of my essay, and identify my weaknesses. Throughout English 101, I learned that the following the writing process was imperative. Before taking this class, I use to always skip the pre–writing step considering that it is just an easy and unnecessary step. Consequently, I struggled to figure how to start writing, and most importantly I struggled to figure out the main point while writing the draft. And then I finish the first draft close to the deadline that I do not have time to read it not to mention revising. It was after I started this class that learned that pre–writing is vital, and requires time and attention as it holds the base of the whole writing. My professor used different analogies such as blueprint for building and map for navigation to explain the importance. It really speeded up my writing after I started to utilize it. I have learned outlining before, but part of the pre–writing that I was fortunate enough to learning in English 101 is the writing triangle. Even before outlining, the topic, purpose, and audience of the Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 13. Reader Response: the Lottery Reader Response #2: The Lottery "The Lottery" is a short story written by Shirley Jackson and published in 1948. The title of the story initially leads readers to believe the story is going to be about someone winning some kind of prize. Even the opening of the story seems to protest any foul play or cruel behavior. What the reader is introduced to is a seemingly friendly gathering of a small village community, members all gathered around anxiously awaiting their drawing for the lottery. The village members all chatter amongst one another in a tone that kind neighbors would take with one another. To the surprise of the reader, the story provides a shocking twist. The story is not about someone winning a prize. Instead the story reveals...show more content... She certainly succeeded in shocking her audiences with the unforeseeable twist that arose at the end of the story. I did not expect the ending that I read. Even when I realized that the woman of the family who drew the winning ticket was arguing against the winnings, I had not ever thought that perhaps someone would die as a result. The fact that children were also allowed to participate in the drawing is what really made my stomach churn. Jackson certainly provided a detailed enough picture in such a few short pages to pull a physical reaction from me. I cannot rightfully say that the story was a good one, but it definitely was brilliant. It still amazes me that an author can write so descriptively and so intelligently that he or she can pull physical, mental, and emotional reactions from the person reading the story. In this case, I had several reactions to the story. Not only did I feel disgusted at how the community members were so eager to stone the woman to death, I also felt a mind–numbing sensation at the fact that such violence and cruelty closely mirrors our own modern society without the archaic practices. As a modern society, we cut down the individual members of society in new ways. While we may not string them up to hang them, we do string them up publicly for the purpose of cruelty and humiliation. Just look at cyberbullying or mass Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 14. How to Resolve Conflict Essay Conflict is in inevitable part of our everyday lives. Since no two people view things in the exact same manner, disagreement will most certainly arise at some point in time. Conflict is simply a difference of opinion and is considered to be a normal part of our everyday lives. There are several different forms of conflict and not all of them are considered to be bad. This paper will discuss the causes of conflict, the different types of conflict, and barriers to conflict. According to Communication Research Associates, conflict is a condition of imbalance within an individual (Communication Research Associates, 2005, p. 178). Keep in mind that just as there are disadvantages to conflict, there are also several advantages. In order to...show more content... For example, if you are at work and walk by someone's desk and accidently knock their pen on the floor. All of sudden, the person lashes out and starts to curse at you. Knowing that this is not the norm for your coworker, it would safe to assume that they are under some form of stress or have other things on their mind. By knowing this, it becomes easier to respond in a more responsible, tempered, and appropriate, manner. Sometimes ego can become a cause for conflict as well. There may come a time when someone is wrong about something or they may have made a mistake but they refuse to admit it. Because they have such a high ego, they may become self–protective of their situation, therefore causing conflict because they refuse to admit they were wrong. Instead they may choose to become persistent in standing their ground, whether they are right or wrong. During communication, if the intended goals are not clearly identified, there is a greater possibility for error and it could further aggravate a situation, causing conflict. Because each individual is different there are bound to be clashes within certain personality types. For example, if someone prefers to discuss everything in detail and I prefer to get straight to the point then we could have a personality clash because we are not seeing things eye–to–eye. They may view me as being incompetent or irresponsible while I would Get more content on HelpWriting.net

Have you heard of this author before? You might want to Google him/her. Go on the internet to look over the periodical (publication) that the article came from. What do you already know about the subject, the publication or the website it came from? I recommend that you print out a hard copy of the reading. That way, you can write on the document if you have comments about the material, questions or just want to make sure that you "get" what the author is saying.

(If your paper font doesn't look like these three styles, it is not formatted correctly.) Use the same font and size consistently throughout your paper– no big fonts for titles, no bold words for emphasis (or titles) and no fancy fonts for fun or to be cute. Underlines should only be used for titles of certain works, like books and movie titles. (Quotation marks should be used for titles of smaller works, such as articles, poems, song titles, and short stories.) The rules may vary depending on the work in question, so consult your instructor for any other concerns. Last name (2) Double space everything.

Longer works, like a book, newspaper, magazine or CD are underlined or italicized, but not both. Choose one and stick with Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 16. Examples Of Reader Response Theory Reader Response Theory Reader–response theory identifies the reader as an affective agent who imparts real exist–ence and life to the work, completing its meaning through interpretation. Reader– response criti–cism argues that literature should be viewed as art in which each reader creates his or her own–most likely unique, text–related performance. I am using Wolfgang Iser and Stanley Fish's takes on Reader Response for my study. Iser's Theory of Reception and Transactional Reader Response Theory According to Iser, any literary text which is a product of the Writer's intentional acts part–ly controls the response of a reader; however, this includes an abundance of gaps. In order to comprehend more clearly, the reader must take action in active participation in attempting to cre–atively fill these gaps with the given information of the test put before him; Thereby allowing the Reader and the text to undergo a transactional process. Iser speaks of the Actual reader in distinction to the Implied reader who is formed within a text and expected to react and respond in specific ways to the response inducing structure of the text. The actual reader, however, is an individual with its own personal experiences accumu–lated as baggage wherein responses actually are continuously and inevitably changed...show more content... What lies behind Fish's thinking is a strong view of the social construction of reality; as he firmly believes that knowledge is not objective but always socially conditioned. All that one thinks and knows is an interpretation that is only made possible by the social context in which one lives. For Fish the very thought one thinks are made possible by presuppositions of the community in which one lives and furthermore the socially conditioned individual, which all individuals are, cannot think beyond the limits made possible by the culture. This culture is referred to by Fish as an interpre–tive Get more content on HelpWriting.net

  • 18. Poem Response Essay In just one paper, I am going to go from two inspirational poems, to a more depressing one. The inspirational poem I will be responding to is "The Tyger", written by William Blake. This piece is by far one of my favorite poems read. I read it often just to remind me not to wimp around with my lifting and my getting bigger, just like the song by Survivor, "Eye of the Tiger", does for me. It keeps in mind what it's going to take to do this. The second piece of inspiration I like is, "I will put Chaos into fourteen lines", by Edna St. VincentMillay. On a depressing side of things, I am then moving on to a more disheartening type of poem. This poem is "Facing It", by Yusef Komunyakaa. In "The Tyger", by Blake, I...show more content... The second poem that I found inspirational to me was "I will put Chaos into fourteen lines", by Millay. The author tries to describe how to attempt to hold chaos back. Through this poem, she describes chaos as a male type of thing by constantly referring to chaos using he, his, and him. She shows chaos's many features, such as its "adroit designs", amorphous shapes, and it's arrogance. I don't like how the author tries to contain chaos, because really it could never happen. Chaos is something that once released or started, is a very hard thing to get put down or stopped. I know that this is under the title of the poem, that she is putting chaos into the fourteen lines, but I still don't like how it's written. I think the poem should be more uncontrolled, and having the chaos breaking out of the poem in the end. Saying that she maybe thought she could contain it, but then realized she couldn't. I like the line of "Past are the hours, the years, or our duress" for the fact it's talking about how chaos takes so long to take care of. When I enter the weight room, I want to go in with the mindset of complete chaos, and that I'm going to cause chaos and treat the weights in a way that if they would happen to be human, they wouldn't want to Crilow 3 be treated. Along with "The Tyger", these both contain things that I like to go in to lift with the mindset of to cause fear and Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 19. Literary Response And Analysis The revised LRA or Literary Response and Analysis is an example of mastery of Writing Standard 5 that is about listening to peers and adults and making edits and revisions. To begin with, one major revision made was improving and reworking the analysis to be more effective. On the original LRA response, it states, " If it wasn't for Beorn, the dwarves, Gandalf, and Bilbo probably wouldn't know what to do. Also, the crew would be starving and tired as well if Gandalf didn't know who Beorn is." After receiving constructive criticism from my teacher, edits from the analysis were made and now it states, " Therefore, if Bilbo and the dwarves did not encounter Beorn, they would not know how to stay safe or where to go. Furthermore, Beorn supplied...show more content... In particular, I wrote and rewrote a few rough drafts and also read through several peer review sheets or comments left on the Google Doc itself. The peer edit sheets were extremely useful for helping and correcting any mistakes because the other person could have different opinions on how to improve the essay as well as being able to discover mistakes I probably accidentally read over and did not notice it. Just as important were the self–assessment since that was most of the revision part and leads to the final product. For example, before the first self–assessment, my essay states, "However, the original novel already planned out the best beginning character personalities, therefore changing the initial plan of the book is useless because it can backfire." After reviewing the essay, I later wrote, "Changing the initial plan is useless because Tolkein already spent countless hours thinking and trying to perfect the quest of Bilbo and the dwarves." The transition aspect of the rubric improved my writing because it presented the expectation for how well the essay is supposed to "flow" together and be more smooth to read. After the first assessment, I made two more important changes after the peer review sheets. A major revision made was, "However, in the movie The Hobbit directed by Peter Jackson, he had made Get more content on HelpWriting.net
